have a good time today okay
idiot now I remember
Orville Ketchum's a guy that was
involved in that sorority house Massacre
a few months ago I heard he tried to
rescue those girls yeah yeah it's gotta
be the same guy how many Orville
Ketchum's can there be that guy's a
certified grade a psycho
awful tell these guys what you told me
about what happened that night at the
hochstätter house five girls were
murdered in that house and he was in on
it
that's not true is it awful
it's not something I like to talk about
you won't believe it trials in almost a
year now since it happened the house was
vacant try to know how long then these
five girls bought it they didn't know
how evil it really was
first the housemother got it ox did her
head beneath the throw rug on cleaning
day he was funny that way
he got rid of her spick-and-span then it
went after the girls
when it's scared
to chest up against the door but it
wasn't big enough to stop them then old
hochstätter made his move he faked
right then went right up the middle the
girls never knew what hit him
they thought they got it but they were
wrong dead wrong
he's got ginger and then it went after
Mary Ann too bad she could be right
never sure to honk that horn
they may have killed his body but he
swore his spirit would never die the
house was destroyed finally there's
nothing there now but a vacant lot Oh
God
you actually expect us to believe that
hochstätter spirit was responsible for
what happened
I believe it
you believe what you want
hey that's bullshit I mean just because
some guy went nuts in an old place
well I don't like being in the same
building with that guy will you take a
valium or something
so where's Plimpton I want to get out of
here as soon as possible
oh he's here all the doctor's office

want to be disturbed we have to wait
around anyway they're supposed to
someone else coming to help Hey look

1129 Spring Street isn't this spring
place who cares what the hell that
asshole do it in there anyway
I'll get greedy just went interview and
actually have it be an interview what
did you beefing about you got the job
didn't you you should know I'm no whiz
when it comes to computers mr. Plympton
no big deal one of girls can show you
the ropes how's your typing well if
you're not too worried about accuracy 14

work at Acme lingerie and I just got a
package that was supposed to go to you

service and have them pick it up what'd
you say your name was dawn grant I'm on
the 8th floor

uh Diana farling fairest whatever she
just joined our team today so this is
dawn and uh well you can all introduce
yourself later you got a lot of work to

checking on you all later so be good but
mr. Plympton I have to be out of here by
7:00 tonight good luck maybe you should
call that agent I'm telling you can't
make it tonight I'd sooner slit my
throat
it appears that the witch doctors of the
Shylock tribe used both human and animal
blood in order to increase their power
furthermore yes Helga if you've seen
messenger service again dr. Newton yes
yeah
dr. Newton Larry Brock Kowski down in
shipping
according to my records are you sure
positive sir it's not listed in here
perhaps look doc I'm sorry I couldn't
help you out that package sounds like
it's pretty important what's inside
anyway
well actually I don't know
you know these things are like death
traps we should have taken the stairs
8/4 don't worry
it sounded like this ever since I've
been here I've been here for years I
still think we should have taken the
stairs so you can take them on the way
back up
careful floors with our but we need to
get into the basement
well in that case you girls are gonna be
needing this
thanks I think
the elevator doesn't go down there we
have to take us down
that ought to make you happy
[Music]
so this is where we have to work go
blind just trying to read the labels
well the faster we work faster we'll be
out of here I guess the first thing to
do is find all the boxes mock Acme let's
get started here's one how about give me
a hand with this yes sir
ever think about what would happen if
there was an earthquake right now not
really I wouldn't find our bodies for
lunch
they definitely buy mine good exercise I
can think of a lot better ways to get
exercise a lot cleaner
yeah it is pretty dusty down there
pretty dusty it's worse than a sandstorm
that looks like the last sounds like
rain and the whole days gone by and
we've been stuck down here on this
basement and I've had enough dust in my
lungs to fill a vacuum cleaner I've got
an idea
why don't we count the rest of this
stuff upstairs and do the inventory in
the office that's a lot of extra work
it'll be worth it to get out of this
hellhole I'm for it me too sounds good
someone give me a hand with this
well at least the records are okay my
dress
I can't hopefully an agent looking like
this it's only water for Christ's sake
come on let's get the rest of the boxes
upstairs and see if we can't fly some
tower
I hope I haven't blown this yo Walter hi
this is Tess don't tell me you can't
make it tonight don't tell me that no no
I just need to push it back a few hours

opportunity down the toilet Walter
Paisley isn't the only game in town no
but his was the only game I was invited
to hey what's this hey guys look at this
what is it it looks like a jewelry box
or something the design looks Egyptian I
can't get it open here let me try I
think it's one of those monkey puzzle
boxes yeah I thought so see it's got
these slats you have to push them in the
right order oh I get it
hey this girl's a genius no my little
brother had one of these boxes once it
was oriental see once these slaps are in
position they should
what the hell was that I don't know it
felt like a hurricane what about that
sound you ever hear anything like that
in your life hey look this was that
thing it was supposed to Museum as far
as I'm concerned the museum can have it
scared the shit out of me

back sounds like it's really coming down
let's change the subject a minute is
anybody hungry besides me I was well I

I'm sick of pizza well how about Chinese
then that's all right but I tell you
what I would like

the design of the box looks Egyptian to
me although what do I know
Egyptian you say well there's no writing
or anything just little patterns well

bald-headed soldiers marching into a
fiery opening boys don't return address
on the package

why they keep all the old dinosaurs well
Mike you certainly didn't waste any time
getting here
can't complain ed professor I renewed my
partner that was Charlie hello hello
Mike tells me you saved his life once in
Nam don't hold that against me a lot
younger at the time didn't know what I
was doing have a seat
do you ever see what well I don't know
if you'd consider it so urgent but
something I'd really like to ask you to
do for me name it well I'll tell you
tonight if the two of you could manage
to get into that building at 11:29
spring place you know I got a call from
a girl there at dawn grant and all of a
sudden the line went dead it's probably
just a storm well could be but I really
like to know hey what's the matter
that's where Ketchum works who Orville
Ketchum I'm positive that scum killed
five girls at the old ox at her place
but I could never prove it Hawks deader
Clive Hawks dinner yeah
I've been chasing catch him ever since
you know I knew Hawks dinner when he was
alive
what yes and I'll tell you this he was
the most diabolically evil individual I
ever encountered in my life
well how'd you get mixed up with well
mishali whereas I'm only an accomodation
of the supernatural hochstätter
regularly practiced the black arts for
his own perverted purposes my God if
that man has managed to create one of
those boxes what boxes what the hell
you're talking about
a solo box Mike the legendary soul box
what's that
well mishali one of the most powerful
the most painful of occult practices is
the splitting of one spirit once the
soul has been separated the severed part
can be safely confined in one of these
boxes and you think that's correct he
was on the verge of splitting his own
soul into three parts an unheard-of
practice you can't be serious deadly
serious mishali and if one of those
boxes has ever opened again the evil
spirit can escape into the world and
then happen to anybody it pleases and
you think this woman who called somehow
latched onto one of these boxes
absolutely but I think it was a mistake
I believe that that box was actually
meant for me you really believe all that
hokum well you know as much as I like
old lady got to take some of his
theories with a grain of salt after all
I did undergo 30 days of continuous
shelling in Khe Sanh no way what do you
mean no way I was gonna I don't know huh
but heaven there's the old prop out
about the farm my god the horror that's
right and speaking of horror I think
it's about time we take a look at him
out of the picture for good the chief
told you to stay away from him
if he finds out I know but if we have to
pass 11:29 spring on the way back to the
station that's right some things can't
be helped
hurry up come on relax will ya the
food's not gonna get here any faster I'm
coming I'm coming
Tess
supposedly waiting outside in a nightie
good point
chain
she's not there the probably in the
basement let's take a look
- eh it probably cost paths to the
elevator that probably upstairs when you
know we are hey
looks like blood
I'll give us time to think look is there
another way out of here besides the
front door there's a back way but it'd
be locked and it's too thick to burst
through how we could grab the front
waving you for sure where are vouloir
well one of us could act as a decoy he's
gonna kill us all no he's not
ninety-five anything to say about it
look it's three against one of the odds
are enough faith maybe I can increase
those odds what do you mean well about a
month ago mr. Plimpton was working late
hard to believe anyway some guy broke
him scared the shit out of him and the
next day he was talking about buying a
gun and I think he actually did you
think well if he did and if I could find
it oh it's worth a try give me a hand
wait wait a minute you say we flip a
coin well the coins in my person my
place is upstairs now
if I run into awful I'll try to scream
loud enough to let you know and you too
can make a run for it
why don't I go with you someone's gotta
look after her
Jackie I'm gonna need some help with
this cabinet
Jackie
oh okay okay
don't go I have to go no you don't we're
safe here
what about dawn we can't help her if
she's dead no one's saying you have to
go Jackie
I don't want to be alone then go with me
no well it's up to you
you did what happened with Diana she was
afraid you were in trouble
she was right damn it she'll be all
right he's dead he can't hurt her I
don't know if I killed him I mean I
didn't stop to check his balls for
Christ's sake
I'll get you no matter whose body area
we can't keep meeting like this Andy
sure we can but it isn't right
if you found out you make sure it
doesn't that's all and what about your
wife we had a real moment there look at
your feet how many times have I told you
to go to bed with your shoes on nobody
goes to bed with spiked heels on us
ridiculous yeah well some people think
they're sexy it's stupid I agree I've
never been a bed with a girl Kim says
she's done
yeah and I'll lay you odds you never
been to bed with two women at the same
time either
neither the slobs that rent these movies
that's why we're making them we're
trying to fulfill a fantasy and nobody
has a fantasy about dirty feet and if
they do I don't want to know them so if
you don't mind put on the shoes so we
can get out of this dump by 10 o'clock
okay that's better settle okay and if
everybody freezes their rights you have
the right to remain silent
don't you have anything better to do and
if you give up that right anything you
say can and will be used against you
look block what do you got against art
this is nothing but pornography look
lady it's tough enough making a picture
these days without making certain shall
we say concessions to public tastes
hey we're up to me breaking my heart you
want me to cuff them no not just yet
check in with headquarters I'll take
care of this lunch
okay walk away walk away
miss Latour hold on there I'd like to
talk to you gets a good loop creep give

few questions if I like the answers

evening what do you want to know you
used to work at 11:29 spring didn't you
so what'd you do there I was in charge
of payroll for Reece wheeler the gun
company never run into a character by
the name of Orval Ketchum oh what a
creep
he's one of the reasons I changed my
line of work they ever come on - you
know nothing actions but I've known
enough men to know what goes on is it
did he ever actually do anything to you
or anybody else you know of no but I can
tell you this give him enough time and
he will okay listen do you think of
anything else this is my private line
ooh la la

them next time where to now 11:29 spring
right that's right okay but we're
stopping to eat first I'm starving
doughnuts doughnuts
we're safe we stay here we don't step
anywhere in the building he's still
alive and I've got a gut feeling that he
is
but Diana might be her she might be but
we'll all be a lot better off if we can
get it please here I don't want to go
out there you think I do you think
you're the only one who's scared I can't
even run anymore but we've got to get
out of here and you got cut this
bullshit again with the brunt of a
younger made enemies
I'm sorry to be so blunt but we just
don't have the time come on
what do we do I'll try the front door
again you go for the roof and if one of
us screams the other one keeps going
agreed agreed
where is that he's right there what
makes you think so wait for your posture
show you sending me back oh please don't
be sorry you won't hit him oh no you cut
the power that means it's in the
basement that I'll baste some time
not much but means the elevators not
working and he'll have to use the stairs
it's gotta be a little under the weather
by now come on I know everyone found a
flashlight
every bunched up in the earthquake kit
check into the desk
hey check this out what is this
I have no idea how this works but I'm
sure glad it's here my dad you spend
marine I can probably work in needs a
clip so what's the plan when he comes
through that door I'm gonna blast him
not a whole lot of strategy involved but
I like it
I don't think he's gonna make it
wouldn't count on it
hey meatball over here
he's gotta be dead now I'd wait a while
you don't have to if you don't want to I
want to I want to
he's dead right now before I lick your
arms out

as put that gun down put the gun down
when the police get here
to tell you the truth I'm afraid to turn
my back on you I didn't do this your gun
was still smoking when I got in here
I killed Diana but that was in
self-defense
who the hell's Diana the girl that you
hide this afternoon we all saw that
awful was the killer and it was Diana
all alone awful tried to save us you
mean to tell me everybody's dead yeah
that's better
please let it be over oh god how could
this have happened
now I don't have to shoot you like I
read your arms out like I wanted to in
the first place
anymore there's another body in the
elevator shaft
jeez once you go up to the lobby and
wait for the coroner right let's check
out the rest of the building
why take alternate floors now we better
stick together that guy catching could
still be around
oh shit well at least this son of a
bitch finally got taken out this one's
still alive he saved my life
what you mean Ketchum wasn't responsible
for this it was her she went crazy
she must be in shock she doesn't know
what she's talking about
I'm telling you she was the one
all I know is kept him isn't the one who
put you in this chair her mine she
didn't know who she was shooting it
[Music]

life
