That's my little girl!

You're gonna be the star of the church one day.

Do you think so?

If that's what you want.

I wanna be just like you, Daddy.

Then you'll have to work hard.

I will. I'll do whatever it takes.

Good. What do we always say?

- I will not accept a life... - Take your time.

Preach it like you mean it or it won't come true.

I will not accept a life I do not deserve.

That's right, Maxine.

Very good.

Good morning.

So, Maxine.

Your agent tells us you're quite a popular name

in adult film and entertainment.

-Is that correct? -Yes, ma'am.

I'm curious.

Did you always want to be in that line of work?

I always wanted to be famous.

So if you don't mind me asking,

why come here and do this?

Well, I've always had a larger vision for myself.

Realistically, porn can only take me so far.

I'm gonna be 33 years old pretty soon

and in hardcore,

women age like bread, not wine.

I'm not where I want to be yet.

I want the good life.

I figure acting is acting.

I can do just as good of a job

as any of those other blondes out there.

Is that your real accent?

Yes, ma'am.

Let's give it a try then, shall we?

Maxine Minx, Puritan II , mark.

If you need to read off the sides we gave you

-just go ahead, all right? -I know the lines.

"Veronica walks in to her perfect

"1950s suburban home.

"Something isn't right. It never was.

"She turns to the camera, and through her trauma

"addresses the lens directly."

It may sound hard to believe, but it's true.

I've seen the devil

stalking me like a specter from the past,

haunting my dreams,

my nightmares.

I can feel his power inside of me

transforming into something vengeful,

something evil,

forcing me to do terrible, awful, murderous things.

Whatever horror happened here 300 years ago,

it's not over.

Satan has come back

to make me pay for my greatest sin.

The sin of living.

Nicely done.

Thank you.

Do you mind taking your top off

so we can see your breasts?

Yeah, sure.

Y'all might as well go home

because I just fucking nailed that.

...the gunman surrendered just a short...

Drug bust here netted more than

$200 million worth of cocaine.

It sounds like the scene

from an old-time horror movie but with a modern twist.

At first, Los Angeles Police thought

that the murder of a young woman

was an isolated act of violence, but since then

they've come to believe it was connected

to a wide-ranging series of assaults

by a killer who's become known

-as The Night Stalker. -The Night Stalker.

-Night Stalker. -Night Stalker.

...is still being sought by authorities.

The fact of the matter is Hollywood sells sin.

Certain kinds of creative expressions

have the potential to serve as a medium

for evil spirits to work through.

Authorities in the film and music scene

are frightened by this and other recent court cases.

I bought the Purple Rain album for our 11-year-old.

I didn't know that "Darling Nikki" was on it

and I felt that it was inappropriate.

My name is Dee Snider. I have been asked to come here

to present my views on, quote...

"The subject of the content of certain sound recordings

"and suggestions that recording packages be labeled

Stay focused, Amber. We're almost done.

You said that three positions ago.

As soon as Frankie Love here decides he can bust,

we'll be ready for you, all right?

- I'm trying, man. - Yes! Yeah!

Arcadia Police

responded to the gruesome scene

to discover yet another victim of The Night Stalker,

the evil and seemingly random nature of these slayings

have many Los Angeles residents wondering

just who could be next.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph.

It should not be that hard to fuck me.

I was supposed to be in Toluca Lake an hour ago.

And where does Shep find these amateurs?

You wanna hit a party in the hills tonight?

Gonna be loads of rich guys.

Can't. I'm at Show World.

Buzzkill. All you ever do is work.

Gotta make hay while the sun shines.

I'm not country like you.

I'll find the best plastic surgeon

on Rodeo Drive to tighten my hay.

It won't be cheap.

It will be when the surgeon's my husband.

Good luck out there.

♪ I'll satisfy your every need And every fantasy♪

- Yeah? I have your amazing agent

Teddy Night, Esquire for you.

-Okay. - One moment.

- Maxi! - Yeah?

How you doing, baby girl?

Uh, I'm running late.

Looking for my outfit for tonight.

Do you want the good news or the bad news?

The bad.

You didn't get the Lizzy Borden music video.

They loved your look

but they said you weren't a big enough name

outside of porn.

How am I supposed to build a name for myself

if no one ever gives me a chance?

I know. I know. It's a catch-22.

It's prejudice is what it is.

I fucked on film and now Hollywood wants me

to wear a Scarlet X for the rest of my life.

You're preaching to the choir,

but you know what I always say...

-"Everybody loves... -"Everyone loves

-an underdog." -an underdog."

That's exactly right.

You want to hear the good news?

Yeah, what is it?

♪ Well, I'm off my rocker♪

♪ I fell out of my tree♪

Name five celebrities

who got their start in horror movies.

There's Jamie Lee Curtis, John Travolta,

Demi Moore, Brooke Shields, and...

Maxine-fucking-Minx.

I got it.

-No shit? -Puritan II . I fucking got it.

Look, Puritan is a future classic

as far as ultra-violent satanic possession movies go.

Not exactly Terms of Endearment,

but in 30 years, we'll see which one has more fans.

Elizabeth Bender is a very underrated director.

My agent thinks it's gonna make me a crossover star.

Like Marilyn Chambers.

Mmm, no. She's not a star. Brooke Shields is a star.

Mmm, Brooke Shields didn't do porn.

So?

She still got naked

and now she's in a fucking Muppet movie.

True.

This is gonna be my head soon, Leon. Just you watch.

I'll organize the pizza and champagne

for America's new scream queen.

That's why I like you.

Oh.

You like me because I'm the only guy

who isn't trying to fuck you.

Ass Sandwich ...

Hey, thanks for waiting.

I don't like walking out here alone at night

with that fricking Night Stalker guy

on the loose.

You see about it on the news?

They're saying it's devil worship.

I don't know.

It's all way too close for comfort, if you ask me.

Then again, I guess nobody would've

ever heard of Elizabeth Short

if it wasn't for the Black Dahlia, you know?

I know a killer after-hours spot

in the hills, if you're interested.

No, I gotta get up early.

I hate going to parties by myself.

Ooh, let me get a hot dog real quick

so nobody sees me eat.

How come you're waking up early?

I have a fitting for a film.

Oh, yeah? Guy-girl or girl-girl?

A real movie.

No kidding?

I didn't know you could act.

Congrats.

I'm just dying for some good news like that

-of my own, you know? -It'll come.

-You just gotta work hard. -Yeah.

I got a friend who's in straight pictures.

It pays for shit compared to fuck flicks.

Not if you're at the top.

What kind of movie is it?

Horror.

Honey.

You're not going to the top in no horror movie.

You sure you don't want to tag along?

The house is absolutely fabulous.

It's right under the Hollywood sign.

I hear you gotta take a gondola to get there.

Real cosmopolitan shit.

Okay. Your loss.

Be careful walking home.

-I can handle myself. -Mmm-hmm.

So said every dead girl in Hollywood.

Authorities still have no leads

to the identity of the satanic serial killer

terrorizing Los Angeles.

Police are advising all residents

to lock their windows and doors,

travel in groups

and refrain from taking any unnecessary trips

outside at nighttime.

Fuck.

You can run.

And you can hide.

But you'll never get away.

Drop it!

Buster.

What were you gonna do, huh?

Nothing. I...

I was just playing around.

Well, we're playing now.

Strip.

What?

Strip naked.

On your knees.

Suck.

On the ground.

Face down, ass up.

Do you know what happened to the last person

who tried to kill me?

I crushed her fucking head.

What's that?

Nothing.

You good?

Yeah, I'm fine.

All right.

I'm gonna head home.

Okay.

Before we go any further,

money talks and bullshit walks.

Now you asked me to find that girl,

which I did,

but whatever sick shit you got planned next,

that's more than we bargained for,

so if you still need my help out here,

the price has gone up.

No! No, no, no.

Please! Please! Please!

Oh, my God! Please!

Please, I didn't do anything.

I'll do anything you want.

Please, just let me go!

Okay.

So I'm gonna be making a lifecast of your head

for the end of the movie.

Ever had one done before?

Uh, no.

There's nothing to it.

All you have to do is sit still for ten minutes.

That's a pretty bitchin' scar. How'd you get it?

I got shot.

Dang. Who shot you?

It's a long story.

All right.

I'm gonna put this over your head now

to make the mold.

Like I said, it'll take about 10 minutes to set.

I'm gonna run. I'm gonna get more bandages.

Sit tight.

Remember to breathe.

I'll be right back.

You'll end up just like me.

Hey, hey!

Are you okay?

Breathe. Calm down.

Breathe. Breathe. Breathe.

Breathe. Come on.

Breathe.

Good morning, detectives.

Here you go.

Well, we got two bodies, both female.

A couple of homos cruising Judy Garland's grave

found them floating in the duck pond.

It's pretty gnarly stuff.

We were thinking it could be The Night Stalker again.

Thinking or hoping?

Jesus.

Fresh meat.

They haven't been here very long.

I'd say five or six hours at the most.

Pretty girls.

I hate to see it.

Looks like they did that with a fucking cattle prod.

Here.

He marked them both.

Miss Minx?

I was told to give you this.

It's your copy of the script and a prep schedule.

And Liz, the director,

wants you back on the lot today for a meeting.

Just a word of warning, she can be pretty frightening.

I've seen her blow a gasket more than once.

-Okay. -Uh, I love your work,

by the way.

No more smut!

No more smut!

No more smut! No more smut!

Who is this?

Unless you want to find yourself

rotting away back in some Texas jailhouse,

you will meet me on the 34th floor

of the Bonaventure Hotel in one hour...

Miss Miller.

Hell of a view, don't you think?

A long way from the Howard Johnson's,

I can tell you that.

Nowhere to hide from up here.

Oh, say, ain't you that dirty movie actress?

Why, you look a whole lot taller in person.

I guess I've only ever seen you lying on your back.

John Labat.

Charmed to make your acquaintance.

-What do you want? -Oh.

Easy, tiger.

Don't go shooting the messenger now.

I'm just the dick.

Private detective hired to find you.

By who?

Well, that right there, that's privileged information.

My employer would prefer to reveal it his self.

He's got a... how do I say this?

A flair for the dramatic, so to speak.

Is everything all right over here?

Oh, yeah. We're just fine, darling.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

Say, you want something to drink?

I'm on an expense account.

No?

I guess we'll just take the bill

when you get a chance.

Wayne Gilroy,

Bobby-Lynne Parker, R.J. Nichols,

Lorraine Day, and Jackson Hollis.

Hearing those names bring up any memories for you?

What about Howard and Pearl Douglas?

You know they never did catch who murdered them.

See, the past ain't finished with you, Maxine.

It's gonna keep knocking at your door

until you open up and let it in.

Thank you.

I'm not saying I had anything to do

with what happened to those people.

But even if I did, which I didn't,

there's no way anyone can pin it on me.

Are you absolutely certain of that?

Tell me.

Does it weigh on you?

As a Christian, I mean?

That you survived, and then your friends didn't.

Now I'm an atheist myself,

but I reckon that that kind of guilt...

that would just crush me to pieces.

But I guess it's not show friends.

It's show business, now isn't it?

How much you want?

Oh, no. This ain't about money.

Everything's about money.

For a couple of whores like you and me, maybe so.

Not my employer, nope. Mmm-mmm.

You can't buy your way out of retribution.

There's a little soiree tonight

at this address.

It has been requested that you attend.

If I don't?

Well, how does that old saying go?

"You'll never work in this town again."

Honestly, I don't really care what you do.

My check's gonna clear either way,

but I wouldn't recommend it.

My employer is a very powerful man.

Don't play chicken with him.

I would hate to see that lost movie of yours

wind up all over the nightly news.

Contrary to popular belief,

there is such a thing as bad press.

Maxine Minx?

Yeah?

I'm Detective Williams.

This is Detective Torres, LAPD.

Do you have time for a quick chat?

Why?

Oh, we just want to find out if you've seen

some people we're looking for.

Could we come inside?

We won't take but five minutes.

I get it. You're in show biz.

You know what? I'm just gonna cut to the chase.

Have you, uh...

Do you know these girls?

Amber James, Tabby Martin.

We understand they're work colleagues of yours,

for lack of a better word.

We also know that you're one of the last people

to have seen them.

Did something happen?

Any information you have could be really helpful.

They are your friends, aren't they?

I don't talk to police.

Hmm. You fucked that up, not me.

-What do you mean? -All that bullshit bravado.

No wonder you never made it as an actor.

I thought I was pretty convincing.

Oh, please.

Is there a way to find out who made this tape?

-Why, what's on it? -None of your business.

There's nothing that'll tell you who recorded it

or where it was duped,

but the tape was made by Quantegy.

Not a popular brand.

Usually, you see Japanese companies

like Sony, Fuji or TDK nowadays.

I can check some old order forms

and call around

to see what region it's still being sold in.

-Best I can think of. -Thanks.

Yeah, no problem.

The survivor

of the brutal attack last night

believes it to have been The Night Stalker

who is responsible.

Authorities are following all witness testimonies

in hopes of zeroing in on the identity of this

vicious serial killer...

who has already claimed the lives of eight victims

in the Los Angeles area.

Can I help you?

I'm here to see Elizabeth Bender.

I'm Maxine Minx.

Yes, you are.

Quite a pathetic scene, isn't it?

Angry people are so easy to lead.

Jump in. Let's take a ride.

Fascinating that something can look so believable

when in reality, it's all a facade.

The producers don't want you in this picture.

They say it's too controversial.

Do you believe that?

Cowards placating the moral outcry of censors,

worrying their satanic horror movie

might be too controversial if it had a porn star in it.

I stuck my neck out defending you.

We saw hundreds of women for the role of Veronica.

None of them had what you had.

What you said in the audition, it was special.

Raw. Real.

Ruthless.

Are you ruthless?

Yes, ma'am.

Well, that makes two of us.

I'm an artist.

This town is prejudiced against artists.

Scared of its own shadow

when it comes to upsetting the status quo.

But I say, if the pearl-clutching

moral majority types are gonna protest your work,

you might as well make it bloody mean something.

Your character, Veronica, is a powder keg ready to blow.

A killer, but not a villain.

She's Clint Eastwood meets Charlie-fucking-Bronson

and that's what will set this apart

from all the other sequels out there.

I want to show that beneath

the technicolor sheen of the 1950's,

things were just as rotten as they are today.

A B-movie with A-ideas.

Could be the defining role of your career,

which is why I need to know

you're willing to do whatever it takes.

I am.

As if your life depended on it.

It does.

Very well.

We'll prove them all wrong together

in a beautiful fucking bloodbath.

Here we are.

Do you know what this is?

It's the motel from Psycho.

They filmed a sequel here a few years back,

if you can believe it.

A serial killer disguised as an old woman.

America was too prudish to ever see it coming.

Some things never change.

It's quite the reminder.

People can protest all they like.

If they'd look in the mirror,

they'd realize we all have demons staring back at us.

I'd like you to visit the set tomorrow.

I'm shooting the flashbacks.

Molly Bennett, who plays Clara

in the original, will be there.

I think it'd be nice for you to meet her.

She can show you the ropes, so to speak.

I don't mean to be disrespectful,

but this isn't a stag film. It's a major motion picture.

Home video may have been responsible

for much of The Puritan 's success,

but we're not some video nasty anymore.

We're theatrical now...

and they don't show stag films on 900 screens.

Are you listening to me?

Yeah.

I'll be there.

Do you want a bit of free advice?

Look around you.

You've made it to the belly of the beast.

Congratulations. Very few come this far.

To stay here, you must make it your obsession.

Eliminate all other distractions

because if you take your eye off that prize

for even a moment, the beast will spit you

right back out where you came from.

It may never get a taste for you again.

You haven't got an appointment.

Mr. Night is on a very important call.

No, I can get you the bearer bonds.

I just need access to your junkyard

for a couple of hours.

-That's it. -We need to talk.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! What are you doing downtown?

You didn't get shitcanned, did you?

I am so sorry, Mr. Night.

She just rushed right past me.

You're my lawyer, right?

Entertainment lawyer, yes.

So if I tell you something, we've got confidentiality?

Frankie, I gotta call you back.

Technically, yes.

Why?

What'd you do?

How long we been working together?

I discovered you on the street.

I put you in the movies, didn't I?

Why didn't you come to me sooner?

Okay, okay, okay. Relax.

Leave it with me.

You hear from that detective again,

you tell him to call your agent.

I'm in charge of this negotiation now.

I've brokered a lot more

than motion pictures in my time.

Trust me.

Nobody is more passionate about your career than I am.

I'll go to jail over it, that's how passionate I am.

This guy thinks he's the big bad wolf?

Wrong. I'm the big bad wolf and nobody

is gonna get in the way of your big break.

Now, all you gotta worry about

is being undeniable in that film.

That's most important right now, capisce?

Stand up tall.

Be strong.

Yeah, you're Maxine Minx.

Go home. Learn your lines.

Keep your mouth shut.

You don't know nothing.

Teddy's got this.

Can I help you?

Look, I ain't in that kind of business no more.

This is just a video store, and we're closing soon.

Not a lot of men in your position

got the stomach to go all the way.

You certainly are willing to do the hard yards.

Yeah?

Hold for Teddy Night.

Okay.

So I did some digging.

The number you gave me for the P.I

forwards to an answering service

I checked it out for a business name and address,

but it's unlisted.

Get this.

The Bonaventure Hotel has no record of any guest

by the name of John Labat.

He's no amateur.

- How you feeling? -Better.

I'm going by the set today.

Good. Remember,

keep it by the book over there.

Don't be late. You never get a second chance

to make a first impression, especially in Hollywood.

Just ask Ed McMahon.

They were found yesterday,

dumped at Hollywood Memorial Park Cemetery.

You've heard of The Night Stalker, right?

Okay, well, if you know anything

about this satanic shit, we need to hear about it

because this killer's still out there.

Look, we don't think The Night Stalker

committed these crimes, but whoever did

is setting the bodies up to look that way,

and you're the common denominator. Why?

If I knew three people

who were murdered in three days,

I'd be pretty scared.

Are you scared, Maxine?

Because if I was scared, I'd ask for help.

-You can't help me. -Why not?

Now what are you hiding?

How come you act like you don't want us

to find out who did this? It's pissing me off.

You really want us to take a closer look

at some of the individuals you're doing business with?

Because actions have consequences

and you ain't some barefoot bitch

in a bus station now, right?

Now, I think you got a lot to lose here,

so you better watch your fucking step.

All right, let's pump the brakes.

Maxine, we don't care

what kind of partying you're into

or what kind of tricks you're turning.

We're not vice. We're not narcotics.

We are homicide.

And the only thing that we care about are these bodies

and making sure we don't find any more of them.

You Hollywood girls,

you're so desperate to become famous,

you don't even realize

how easy it is to become infamous.

It could be you

on one of these slabs, Maxine.

But it's not.

Can I go? I'm gonna be late for work.

What?

You didn't like that performance either?

Hey! Hold up!

I know you don't think you can trust me,

but all I want to see is this sick freak behind bars,

-hand to God. -What am I supposed to do?

You're supposed to help me save the next girl's life.

Please, Maxine.

Maybe she should save herself.

I did.

Cut!

The blood's wrong.

Kensington Gore.

It looks like a bad Hammer picture.

-I need a valium. -Sorry I'm late. I was...

Don't.

Hearing you blame something will only irritate me more.

The most precious thing we have in life is our time.

We never have enough, especially on a production.

If you waste mine again, you're out.

I'll have the second-best girl on the Concorde tonight

frothing at the mouth to take your place.

Is that clear enough?

Right then. Follow me.

Oh.

-How was it, Liz? -Disappointing, frankly.

Even with all these extravagant resources,

one thing remains the same.

You want something done right, you gotta do it yourself.

Molly Bennett, meet Maxine Minx,

my latest fascination.

Oh, pleased to meet you.

Ah, sorry.

We've all got blood on our hands now.

Right, let's take it from after the bite, shall we?

Okay, look. Here's the truth.

Liz is a genius and a mentor.

Just do whatever she asks of you.

Don't get on her bad side,

and don't overthink the acting.

Just do what she says and you'll get loads of jobs.

She's very loyal to the people she trusts.

Look at me.

I was quite literally burnt to a crisp

in the last film,

and here I am, resurrected. A working actor.

Maybe not a household name just yet,

but at least my health insurance won't expire.

Plus, my charred corpse's scream

has been immortalized in cinema history.

How many girls from a council estate

in North Yorkshire can say that?

Don't worry.

I know what you're going through.

I was in your shoes once. I realize how scary it can be.

You've got a memorable face and a great bod.

You'll take to horror like a duck to water.

Uh, I've gotta go get cleaned up.

I was invited to a big party in the hills

for some out-of-town producer.

See you around.

Yeah.

-Thanks. -Of course!

Girls gotta look out for one another in this business.

Nice to meet you, Nadine.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk.

I told you not to play chicken, didn't I?

Now let's try and do this without making a scene.

It's time to pay for your sins.

Excuse me.

You can't be up there.

I do apologize.

I guess my morbid curiosity must've gotten the best of me.

A lot of famous killings happened inside this house.

Brutal murders and whatnot.

Can I see your pass?

I don't know what I did with it.

I am a lost ball in the high weeds today.

Maybe you can help straighten me out.

Hey, how about you and me

take a walk on down to the gate

and we can make this right?

I used to work in security myself.

Very important job.

Okay.

What?

Maxine.

I don't like it.

-No, the cream one. -Okay. Yes, ma'am.

It took me a long time to get where I am today.

Puritan II isn't just a sequel.

It's my opportunity to prove

I have a meaningful voice in this industry

and I can't afford to have anyone mess that up for me.

I understand. I'll do whatever you say.

Take the weekend.

Have fun. Let loose.

Because on Monday, the real work starts

and I'll be expecting your absolute best.

No more smut!

No more smut! No more smut!

- Okay, man. Okay. - Keep moving.

Oh, Maxine.

Whatever's going on in your life

that's interfering with this picture,

I don't care what it takes.

Squash it.

I intend to.

Come out, come out, wherever you are.

Do you know why people come to The Big Easy to work with me?

Because I... am the best at what I do.

I got a reputation, see? I can find anyone

anywhere, no matter how badly they want to stay hidden.

I know how criminals think.

I'm one myself.

Yeah, the only difference between you and me, Maxine,

is I don't pretend not to be.

Oh, shit.

Time to pay for your sins.

Lights out, bro.

You do got the devil in you.

I thought you were an atheist?

Fuck you, bitch.

Oh, no, no. Wait.

Wait, wait, wait.

Don't do this. This ain't fair.

I only work for the man.

Killing me won't stop nothing. Let's talk!

Come on, you're gonna need my help, Maxine.

-This isn't over. -Yes, it is.

Oh, no, no. This ain't my cause.

I could be bought.

Anything you want! Anything at all!

Oh, no, no, please! Please, turn it off!

I don't want to die in here!

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done

on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread

and forgive us our trespasses

as we forgive those who trespass against us

and deliver us from evil.

Get lost.

We'll clean up the mess.

Thanks.

What are agents for?

Tragically, another female victim

of The Night Stalker

has been discovered in Monterey Park.

Public demand for this killer to be brought to justice

has a record number of LAPD on duty around the city.

Residents living in fear are praying

that someone out there will come forward

to finally put a stop to these vicious murders.

- What am I supposed to do? - You're supposed

to help me save the next girl's life.

Wanna hit a party in the hills tonight?

Gonna be loads of rich guys.

I know a killer after-hours spot

in the hills if you're interested.

I was invited to a big party in the hills

with some out-of-town producer.

We should take her.

Let's give it a beat.

Let's see what she does first.

That's my little girl!

There's nobody else like you.

You're gonna be the star of the church one day.

Do you think so?

If that's what you want.

I wanna be just like you, Daddy.

Then you'll have to work hard.

I will. I'll do whatever it takes.

Good. What do we always say?

I will not accept a life...

Take your time.

Preach it like you mean it or it won't come true.

I will not accept a life I do not deserve.

That's right, Maxine.

Very good.

I knew you'd come.

It has taken me years to find you.

I missed you so much.

You've been lost for far too long, darling.

Let me take you home.

I'm making a film...

- and you... - No more smut!

- my beautiful little Maxine... - No more smut!

are the star!

Well, don't you see?

Hollywood stole you from me

like so many other poor children.

Satanists have been propagating sex and violence

throughout our homes for years now!

Weaponizing the television set,

brainwashing our youth,

turning them into deviants.

But we'll put a stop to them together.

I, and many other grieving parents like me

have come forth to expose the devil once and for all!

Satan is inside of you, my darling,

but I can take him out.

It'll be the climax of the film!

Do you mind taking your top off

so we can see your breasts?

Y'all should cast me in this movie.

Oh, really? Why is that?

Because I'm a star.

Ain't nobody else like me.

The whole world's gonna know my name.

Don't be frightened.

I'm gonna give you what you always wanted.

You'll be more famous

than anything Hollywood could conjure.

Fame that will never end.

I tried to help your friends,

but they wouldn't accept God's love.

So they were punished by his wrath.

But not you.

You will be saved.

Are we rolling?

Tonight

I document an exorcism,

a form of miracle for the whole world to see.

Ezekiel 16:14...

"Your fame went forth among the nations

"on account of your beauty,

"for it was perfect because of My splendor

"which I bestowed on you,"

declares the Lord God.

Evidence of your possession

shall finally reveal Hollywood

as the cult it is.

Luring children into lives of sin.

The Devil is real

and he deserves no place on the screens in our homes.

I have come to save

all lost children!

Play along with Daddy now.

It's your big scene.

Admit...

possession!

Confess!

Denounce your life of sin

and ask to be saved.

Only then shall you receive divine intervention.

For if not...

you shall be marked

with the sign of the beast,

so that the devil

may never hide amongst us.

The choice is yours.

What do you say?

Hold it, motherfucker!

Everybody to the side of the house now!

I'm not fucking around, Padre!

Mass has ended! Put your hands up!

Do not respect them!

Where were they when your family members went missing?

They are complicit!

They are the devils!

Only the Lord keeps watch over you

both now and forever!

Fight for Him! Fight for your families!

To the death!

Hey!

Cover me! I gotta reload!

I'm going up the hill after the leader!

-Wait for me! -Come on.

Maxine, stay here! Backup's on the way!

So am I.

- Freeze! Drop the gun! - Drop it!

No!

Hang in there. Breathe.

You're okay. Just hang in there.

You're gonna make it.

Maxine! Over here. Come over here.

All right, stay with him. Put pressure on the wound.

I'm going to get him.

30 years in this city, I never been up here before.

I wanted to be an actor once, too.

I got him!

I told you I'd get him!

It was all for you.

I tried to give you what you wanted.

To be just like your daddy.

But I created a monster.

Forgive me.

Failing a child

is the greatest sin of all.

This is the Los Angeles

Police Department.

We have you surrounded.

Drop the weapon.

You're a vision in this light.

A beautiful shining star.

I repeat, drop your weapon.

This is your last chance.

It's over, Maxine.

Step away from the sign, drop the weapon

and put your hands up.

We interrupt this program

to bring you breaking news.

The horrifying saga finally comes to an end.

The man previously known as The Night Stalker

was apprehended by citizens last night

bringing an end to a year-long manhunt

for the suspected serial killer.

More on that later in our program.

We are also joined tonight by Maxine Minx,

star of the upcoming film, The Puritan II

who joins us now with her attorney

and our own Dianne Mattingly.

Maxine, you have become quite a celebrity

outside of the movie business...

by taking down a serial murderer of your own.

who happened to be your father.

Isn't that right?

Why, yes, Dianne. It was a harrowing experience.

I'm just so grateful to be sitting here with you.

I've gotta thank God for orchestrating this all.

Maxine! Maxine! Maxine!

Maxine! Maxine! Maxine!

Maxine! Maxine! Maxine!

Maxine, over here!

-Maxine, you look incredible. -Thank you.

How does it feel knowing that after all you've been through,

you're in one of the biggest movies in America?

It's hard to put into words.

There are reports that you sold your life rights

and that the Maxine Minx story

will be going into production soon

with Elizabeth Bender directing.

Is there anything you want to tell the people

at home watching you tonight?

Any words of encouragement for young girls

trying to make it big in Hollywood?

Never give up.

It's hard work.

You've gotta be willing to do whatever it takes.

There's a phrase my daddy always used.

Say it with me now.

-I will not accept... -I will not accept...

-a life I do not deserve. -a life I do not deserve.

You didn't fail me, Daddy.

You gave me just what I needed.

Divine intervention.

Yeah.

They're ready for you, Miss Minx.

Okay, thanks.

You're a fucking movie star.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Right, before we begin,

let's take a moment to remember Molly Bennett.

She was the original member of our Puritan family

and she'll be dearly missed.

All right, thank you everyone.

It's back to work.

Just like a Hitchcock blonde.

How does it feel being someone else?

Good.

Quite the turn of events.

Tragic, really.

Molly was never gonna make it beyond the franchise.

She was good, but she wasn't a star.

Right, we've got one more setup left

of the dream sequence.

Come see your head.

It looks so real.

All right, we're ready to give this a try.

Brilliant.

Let's lock it up!

Roll camera!

So now that everyone knows your name,

any idea what you want to do next?

You've certainly got everyone's attention.

I just never want it to end.
