- Amos Clements: [complaining about Morris' french horn] And if I hear another sound out of that thing, I'll ram it so far up your ass, you'll be farting music for a year.
- John Morris: [thoughtfully considering the idea] Wouldn't that be fantastic? Farting music. For a year!
- Donna: Wade... there's something I... I wanna tell you about last night. Well, the old lady... well, Chas, he didn't translate everything that she said.
- Wade Parent: What do you mean?
- Donna: Well, uh... she said... there was no driver in the car.
- Everett Peck: [to Wade] As your father once said to me...
- Everett Peck: [pausing a moment as Wade looks at him interested] Forget it, I would have made it up anyway!
- Everett Peck: [addressing his officers] So look... I want everybody out on the streets. I want you to remember... a young man was killed today, passing through our town... and I don't like it... I don't like it at all. Goodbye.
- Lauren Humphries: [taunting the car's unseen driver] Hey, you! Why don't you get outta your big ugly car, huh? We'd like to see what you look like. I'd like to see what a creep like you looks like!
- [the car angrily drives around in circles and then stops]
- Lauren Humphries: Well, come on, come on, get outta your car, huh? Let us all see what a lunatic son of a bitch you are! Come on, crawl out! I'll let you crawl out! Oh, I got your story now! I see! As long as you're in your car, you're big, and you're bad! Come on, let me tell you something, buddy. You know what you are? A chicken!
- [the car angrily revs its engine]
- Lauren Humphries: You're a chickenshit! Scum of the Earth, son of a bitch!
- [she hurls a tree branch at the car]
- Chas: [about Lauren] I shouldn't have left her.
- Wade Parent: Nothing would have changed. He would have taken you out too. I talked to her... she called me when she got back here. She could hear the engine coming down the street.
- Wade Parent: [choking back the tears] She was so frightened. I don't know... I don't know.
- Luke Johnson: I know why he didn't go into the cemetery.
- [Wade turns to look at Luke]
- Luke Johnson: I know why. There's no other reason... the ground... was hallowed.
- [Wade gives Luke a skeptical glare]
- Luke Johnson: That's what I say... but you think about it. Everything that's happened... what it did to the guys, and how.
- [Wade turns and walks out of the house]
- Luke Johnson: Everybody else was killed on the street! Lauren was killed in the middle of her own living room! She was special... why? Because she cursed him, that's why!
- Wade Parent: I don't believe it, I don't accept it.
- Luke Johnson: Wade, that car flew into that house four feet off the ground. And how did he know where she lived?
- Wade Parent: Keep the road blocks up, get all the other guys. Get 'em down at the station right away.
- Everett Peck: Are you gonna stand there philosophizing, or are you gonna buy me a drink? You're not smart enough to do both.
- Amos Clements: So you're the one that woke me up this morning with that awful bugle music.
- John Morris: That's impossible sir, that's not even a bugle, it's a French horn.
