Nightmare Weekend (1986) - full transcript

We've landed.

We're all set.

Good luck, guys.

Hey, Julie baby, we've
reached the target.

So what did she want?

Access to the mainframe.

Right.

Okay.

Danger, danger, danger.

Ken to control unit.

Ken to control unit, come in.



Okay, rotate the dish
and hook up the box.

Then wait for my
further instructions.

Standing by.

It's all right.

I told you about
the experiment.

Are you coming?

I'd love to but I
really wanna see my dad.

It won't be the
same without you.

Come on.

A whole weekend with
nothing to do but relax

and get studied by some nut.

You'll love it.

Where is it?

I don't know.



Elema's coming to pick us up.

Shame a scientist's daughter,

you don't have to
worry about money.

They're offering 500 bucks
and I need 500 bucks.

Sounds great but I still
can't let my dad down.

He's counting on me.

Well, kiss your
buddy George for me.

It sounds like a real
turn on .

Where's Mary Rose and Ralph?

They're right here.

I don't wanna smell any
booze on your breath, got it?

Yes, ma'am.

That's it, out!

We have three girls
arriving tonight.

Get the rooms ready.

But what about the guys?

Mind your own
goddamn business.

You may look innocent
but you're a slut

just like your mother.

Have you everything
you need, Harry?

Yes, Ms. Clingstone.

Hey, Tony.

What a dice.

Not even a Bimbo to
pull on around here

and when there is, it's yours.

You know we don't
serve hard liquor here

only beer or soda.

Hey.

You're quantity and I'm quality.

Right?

I love both.

Yes, ma'am.

Get out from wherever you're
hiding and pick up the girls.

Now!

Good morning, Daddy!

Hello, Jessica.

And how's my lovely daughter?

So glad to see you.

Me too.

How do you feel?

Like a million bucks.

How about you?

Don't you ever relax?

You own this joint
for god's sake.

You got 200 patents.

212.

Listen, I won't be able to
spend very much time with you

this weekend.

Abandoned for bioelectronics.

Story of my life.

Well, George will
keep me company.

We're coming to the end
of the test on the biometer.

I think we may have something.

You always have
something, daddy.

But tell me, who's the "we"?

Julie.

So I have to put
up with Julie again.

She's still after you?

Not often enough.

It was an accident, Ken.

It was an accident, Ken.

Stop blaming yourself.

Just get outta
here, okay, Julie.

Just leave me alone.

Ken, you've gotta understand.

I'm sorry about what happened.

But we're almost there now.

This last weekend we'll do it.

Let's just go check out
that killer dog of yours,

all right?

Ugh!

Linda, wait a minute.

What's that?
Sandwiches.

Oh, ma.

You know, George, Annie
asked me to do some weird

psychological test with her.

You know how much I like Annie

but I like you and dad more.

I am flattered.

Oh, I almost
forgot to tell you.

Annie said to give
you a big kiss.

Listen, Ken --

I have nothing to say to you.

George.

Yes, my dear?

Program the race for me.

Far out!

I love the race.

I love you.

What would I do without you?

Okay.

Where'd you
learn your manners?

Not in a gutter like you, kid.

Oh, come on ladies.

Cut it out.

Why can't you two relax?

This sandwich
tastes as dry as hell.

Tastes like cardboard.

Hey, you got anything to drink?

Hey.

Can lgetinon
this little jump?

No, thanks.

But I'll gladly let you
do it on anything else.

How about this?

Baby, you really turn me on.

You move So nice.

So do you.

Hey, Tony.

Let's go.

Better get going, ladies.

Look.

Just let me come with you
after the crossroads.

Sorry, I can't.

Look, just to the
crossroad, Jack.

That's all.

Okay?

All right, get in.

Look, I told
you I'm not ready.

Well, Tony, she's
all pumped up.

Come on, let's go
back to Billy's Bar.

Reported the
last test results.

They're 100% positive.

Check.

Cats, 100%.

Rats, 100%.

Mice, 100%.

Killer alley cats to
good-natured house pets,

you've had complete
personality reversals.

It's astounding.

I won't take risks,

not with human lives.

It's a remarkable achievement.

Edward, you're too modest.

Apache is the most powerful
machine ever constructed

and I feel privileged
to be part of your team.

And a very
important part of it.

What an incredible house.

This way, ladies.

Hello.

I'm Mary Rose, the maid.

And this is Harry, the butler.

Please make yourselves
at home and relax.

Just relax.

Thanks for the sales pitch
but the answer is still no,

no humans, not yet.

So you'll only let the
biometer cure neurosis

and house cats
and junkyard dogs.

No humans till I'm ready.
Edward,

the whole world is waiting.

Think of all those
paranoids, schizophrenics.

It's criminal to
waste any more time.

One more game, George.

Skill four.

Ready when you are.

Oh, so someone else
has access to Apache,

someone's charming daughter.

Oh, God, I forgot
to turn off Apache.

Darling, when you use George,

make sure he's not
connected to Apache.

Okay.

Anyway I played badly.

I lost the game.

I'm going out.

Do you need anything?

Thanks for the joyride, pal,

and for totaling my car.

Don't worry, I'll pay you back.

I can't hear you, Julie.

The subject of this experiment

is a highly nervous aggressive
doberman trained to kill.

After ingestion of the ball,

the animal should
behave normally.

The attempt is to
modify or reverse

character disorders.

It's transforming.

It's alive.

I've changed the dose.

Now, remember, Julie,

whatever you do don't
let the biometer

go beyond 50%.

I don't want a crazed dog or
even a dead one on our hands.

We've dramatically reduced
the time required for the

synthetic neurons to short out
and replace the natural ones

that only takes a
few milliseconds.

I knew it.

I knew it!

I knew you'd do it.

It's fantastic!

Well, it all looks
pretty good now.

But what about the
possible long term effects?

What about six months from now?

Do you still think
that loss and inhibitions

and suppression of
fear is dangerous?

I just don't know.

It's working beautifully.

The dog's behavior is
completely changed.

Hey, I'm expecting
a phone call, okay?

That was my seat.

If you want it, that's okay.

You can have it.

Oh my God.

You're really very good.

Ever think about turning pro?

What about you, huh?

Don't you wanna take
on the pinball wizard?

You kidding?

She doesn't know a
goddamn thing about it.

How's everything going?

Everything's fine.

The test on the dog
worked perfectly.

Did the guinea pigs arrive?

Yeah, they're here.

What about Brake?

He's never a problem.

He doesn't suspect a thing.

You know you've
only got this weekend,

no mistakes.

If it wasn't for me you
wouldn't even know about this.

And for that kind of money,
I don't make mistakes.

Yeah, just remember that.

This is rough.

Eating, drinking,
never lifting a finger.

Sure beats being
cooped up in a shop

with a bunch of teenagers
playing disco games.

Ah, you mean you
work in a record store.

I'm a singer.

Or at least I'm
gonna try to be one.

Well, why don't
you stop by the shop

and use some
recording equipment.

Maybe I'll produce the demo.

I can just see
the headlines now.

I love it.

Weekend meeting
leads to solid gold.

Oh.

Diary, George.

George, I need some info.

I don't know what's
wrong with me.

More data please.

I feel so strange.

Log out Apache,
this is private.

I feel weird.

I feel like laughing and crying.

Paradox.

I never felt this way before.

I need information.

It's like a hole in my stomach,

my heart too.

I swear it's beating faster.

-Aw.

-I don't think it's
a heart attack

and it's not the flu.

I'm not sick George.

I'm cold, hot, up, down.

I'm happy.

Do you understand?

More data please.

When I looked at him, it
felt like an electric shock.

Just like that I got
all wound up inside.

Now, I wanna be with him.

I wanna be with him, George.

Please name this individual.

This guy I met,
he's so incredible.

Analysis in operation.

More data please.

He's gorgeous,

such eyes.

And that smile.

Oh, he's so adorable.

Processing data.

I've gotta see him again.

George, do something.

Please, help me.

What is happening to me?

Diagnosis, in love.

You are in love.

That's it!

They're all at the pool.

I need a personal object
from each one of them,

something they won't miss.

Well, I'll get
on it fast, ma'am.

I feel badly.

You're here and I'm spending
all my time with Apache.

Professor, I am
deeply insulted.

I know how hard it's
been since mom died,

you had to do everything:

Be my mom and dad.

I just want you to
know that I realize

what a wonderful father you are.

I'm sorry I haven't been.

What other dad would
have given me George?

Remember when I was five,
you taught me how to program.

Who are you?

Maintenance.

Well, maybe you can help me.

You can never get what you want.

Not exactly a conventional
childhood, was it?

I wouldn't trade It.

Is something bothering you, dad?

It's the experiments.

They're moving so fast.

Julie seems to be
in such a hurry.

Don't let her push you.

Well, fortunately
she still needs me.

She can't do it without me.

Here's your special
sandwich, Rowdy.

Wait here.

Relax.

Slow down.

Don't slip your clutch, honey.

Relax.

George to Apache,
abort program.

Insufficient data.

Confirm response.

Test connection faulty.

Received channel death.

But I just wanted ...

Shit!

Little bitch.

You okay?

What happened?

Did you see a ghost?

A spider.

I hate spiders.

Thanks.

Anytime.

So you don't like
spiders, hmm?

How about butlers?

Oh, you wanna play spiders?

I'm no fly.

Anyway, you think I wanna play

with that bitch's
little puppy dog?

Come on, fetch it.

Come on!

Fetch!

Fetch!

Something's fishy.

I wanna get out of here.

What do you mean?

This is paradise.

I don't know.

I didn't sleep a wink.

What's the matter with you?

Hey, wake up.

Doesn't anybody care?

And how should I dress?

Boys who like
girls in dresses

88%.

What about the colors?

White.

White, are you sure?

For a brunette, yes.

74% prefer.

Okay.

Now, find a way
for me to meet him.

Mansion, difficult.

Busy weekend.

Probabilities for other meeting.

Bars 82%, discos 76%,

hitch hiking 66%.

Hitch hiking, that's it.

Thanks, George.

Dave.

Dave, honey.

I want you.

You think you're so
fucking great, don't you?

Oh go fuck little miss innocent.

Get this to San Jose
as soon as possible.

Lonely, baby?

Want some pinball action?

Or just standing action?

Get lost you miserable creep.

What?

I thought you
were somebody else.

Nice talk.

Maybe you're not such a little
innocent virgin after all.

You'll never find out.

You ain't a bad looking chick.

How about one for the road?

I'll make it a quickie.

You got it all wrong, baby.

I'm a nice guy.

Now let's see what you've got.

Bitch.

Danger.

Danger.

Danger.

Danger.

Danger.

Danger.

Danger.

Danger.

Danger.

Yes, Julie?

I've got it at seven.

Yes, you're right.

I'll check it.

George to Apache.

High priority
interrupt required.

Emergency program code
Protection Jessica.

Repeat, Protection Jessica.

You didn't feed the dog.

Yeah, sure.

I'll be glad to.

Okay, buddy.

See you Saturday.

Hey, Mike.

Telephone.

What?

You can't answer the phone?

Hey, it's not my store, buddy.

Yeah.

Oh, Ms. Clingstone.

You picked up my car.

Yeah, we got your car.

Yeah, drove it into a tree.

How 'd you do that?

None of your goddamn business.

Oh .

is it fixed?

We got it.

Is it fixed?

Yeah, I can fix it.

Our mechanic's working
on it right now.

Hey, Mike, tell her I got
the car right here, man.

Go ahead.

We'll have it for
you by tomorrow.

It better be.

Yeah, tomorrow morning.

Make it early.

Okay, all right.

Hey, where you've been?

I just bought Billy's Bar.

Not bad, huh?

Right on!

All right.

What a guy.

His dad buys him
everything he owns.

I sure like you
riding back here.

I can get used to that.

Fill her up?

Fill her up.

Jessica, I'm sorry.

I've got to deliver the
parcel as soon as possible.

Can't we be together tonight?

There's no where in
the world I'd rather be.

Believe me, there's
important business.

Can't it wait?

Now even for me?

It's important to my future.

Our future if it
works out right.

That'll be six bucks.

I'll tell you what.

I might get into trouble

but I'm gonna leave
a little later, okay?

That'll give us some more time.

I'll have to stop
by and tell my dad

that I'll be away, okay?

Look, I'm telling you

I haven't seen him.

We had a date here at 2
and I'm getting tired of

hanging around waiting for him.

Shit.

He's got my helmet.

Doesn't have his own?

Yeah, well, you
got your own bike.

Can't stop people taking mine.

That's not the same.

And remember, I'm the boss.

Hey, Fil, you seen Dave?

Yeah, he had a
drink, drove out

and say he'd be back.

I thought a saw a
motorcycle down by the lake.

I'm not sure but I thought
it was Dave's bike.

Come on, let's go.

What's up?

I don't understand it.

Did he eat anything unusual?

Not that I know of.

The poor thing's in agony.

Maybe the experiments --

The experiments are perfect.

We've just got a sick
dog on our hands.

Check over there.

Gary, you go that way.

Dave.

Dave.

Dave.

Dave.

Hey, boys.

Help me with this bike.

The death seems
quite abnormal,

must have been an
internal hemorrhage.

I called the vet.

He'll wait for you.

Okay.

But cancel tonight's experiment.

Don't jump to conclusions.

I told you I don't
wanna take risks,

not with human lives.

You know the deal.

I speed up the experiment
and betray an honest man.

You give me a third
of the profits

and a half a million upfront.

Okay.

Okay, how do you want it?

Just hand it to Ken.

Do you trust him?

Sure.

But what are you going
to do about Jessica?

Just let me handle the
professor's little bitch.

Daddy.

What do you want?

Where's my dad?

I asked you a simple question.

Why can't you answer?

When will he be back?

I'm his colleague
not his secretary.

Oh, I thought you
were more than that.

Anyway, give him
a message for me.

Tell him that I'll be at
my friend's house tonight

and that I'll be back
home tomorrow for lunch.

I'll tell him.

I bet the lucky guy's
very well hung .

Shit.

That's the house
where Bob was killed.

You're everything I hate.

Why don't you go
bitch somewhere else.

Ken.

Let me explain.

Explain what?

That we're lovers.

Jessi, Jessi, I can explain.

No, listen.

Jessica!

Jessica!

You're a world class bitch,

a killer!

First Bob and now
you're after Jessica.

Bob, you know that
was an accident.

An accident?

A saw his face!

That was no accident.

I've done this for us.

Together we can be
rich and powerful.

But you'd better
not give me trouble

because you know I can make
things very uncomfortable.

You don't wanna
explain that little

accident to the police, do you?

Jessica!

Jessica!

Why don't you take a walk?

What are you trying to say?

Nothing.

It's weird.

You listen, Ralph.

Those chicks up at the mansion,

what are they doing up there?

I don't know
anything about it.

Some sort of testing.

Something about a relaxation.

How do I know?

I only follow orders.

Well, could you
get us invited?

I mean, we're not so bad.

Hey, look.

Private.

Closed.

Like I said it's
some kind of test.

Yeah, sure.

Christ, girl, I'm
in love with you.

You know, I mean,

our world has
changed since we met.

Everything's different now.

I'm finally starting to feel
good about what's deep down

inside of me, you know.

Just the thought that
you love that witch.

You know she was
after my father too.

Jessica, I swear I
never really loved her.

One thing you're right about,

our world did change
the day we met.

Isn't that tight?

Maybe they'll be a
lot of good looking guys

with big muscles .

Are you expected?

Yeah, I'm Gary.

This is Tony.

That's me.

If you gentleman
would be kind enough

to wait on the patio.

I'll have you announced.

Come on.

Ms. Clingstone, there
are two unknown men here.

They seem okay.

Okay.

Make sure they have
everything they need.

Oh, and Harry,
take the night off.

What's the matter with Pam?

I don't know.

Just probably depressed
about something.

Okay, what about this?

Too revealing?

No, you've got good legs.

Where is everybody?

It's weird.

Hey, what's going on?

Spooky.

Hey,

what's wrong?

You look like
you've seen a ghost.

I feel like I've
been here before.

Obviously, you
were here yesterday.

Come on quit joking.

I'm telling you I've
seen this place.

You know, Annie, a lot of
staircases look the same.

Wait a minute.

It was a photograph, a
picture that Jessica --

Who's Jessica?

She's my best friend.

She's adorable.

She told me a lot about
her father, her assistant,

and their work.

Are you sure you're all right?

I remember because
Jessica couldn't stand,

yeah, Julie Clingstone.

She's a very dangerous
woman according to Jessica.

Hey, I don't know
how to say this.

But, I hope we can see
more of each other.

I mean ...

Don't you like me?

I'm sure it was
that staircase.

The entrance in the picture
look just like that.

We have to talk
about staircases?

Well, do we?

No, sorry.

The first time I saw you,
sipping your drink at the bar,

I... I just thought
you were terrific.

I felt something real deep,

something nice.

I'm not so used to that.

Tony, you're a
really wonderful guy

and very, very sexy.

You were great.

What a weekend.

I'm walking on air.

Is it your fault?

What's my fault?

I wondered, if it's you
that's making me feel so fine

so deep down good.

I hope so.

You were great, Linda.

I never had it so good.

I liked it.

I liked it.

And I wouldn't mind a
return match .

Killing time.

No way, baby.

Hey, your panties are cute.

Silk's really sexy, huh?

How I like being
so close to him.

To touch him.

I want him to hold me tight.

Stroke my face,
kiss me, love me.

He's so kind, so gentle.

His body on mine
feels so wonderful.

He's looking at me now

so tenderly.

I wanna tell him with my hands.

Yes, I feel his
heart is calling me.

I know now that he
really loves me.

His eyes, only telling
me that he loves me.

George was right.

I am in love.

Oh my only need.

I don't want this to end ever.

You know, this place
seems so familiar to me.

Look, I thought you got
over that ghost stuff.

I have.

Well, anyway, I like the
way this ghost dances with me.

So tell me, how do I
make love to a ghost?

I have it.

Harry, collect
something from this guy.

I found a key there.

Leave them there.

Right, ma'am.

Why only half?

It's a long story,
not very pretty.

My friend Bob's
got the other half.

He meant a lot to you.

Best friend I ever had,

till I met you.

He saved my life.

We did everything together.

I'll tell you about
it at some time.

Yes, it went perfectly.

No hitches.

Were the subjects
totally transformed?

Yes, it was
horrible but it works.

It's an impressive
performance.

I told you I could handle it.

Don't worry, I'll
clean up the mess.

Linda!

You want them all, don't you?

What are you talking about?

You bitch!

What the hell are you doing?

What's going on here?

I'll meet you at the
Air Ranch at 9, okay?

All right.
All right?

All right.

Come on.

What are you smiling at?

I'll see you later, baby.

What the hell's going on here?

I want it at a 100%.

Julie, you've gone crazy.

You don't know what it
could do to these kids.

It could destroy them,
turn them into neuropaths!

You could ruin everything
we've worked on for years!

You got here too soon, Edward.

Why are you doing
this to the project?

To all of us?

It looks like you sold me out.

Get out of here.

You're fired!

Daddy.

Daddy?

Are you there?

Julie, you scared me!

Don't you ever knock when
you come into a room?

Your father just called.

He's waiting for
you at the mansion.

It's extremely urgent.

Is he okay?

I think so.

But you better get
over there right away.

Daddy?

Daddy?

Annie?

Shh, don't talk.

My poor, honey.

I tried not to tell you but
all this is your father's work.

No.

Daddy!

Not him?

He couldn't want this.

I know how you feel, Jessica.

I really do.

But you never know what he's
thinking, you know that.

I don't believe it!

You're lying!

Ask Ken if you
don't believe me!

It's not possible.

Someone please tell
her it's not true.

Unfortunately it's both
possible and very true.

You bitch!

You're not satisfied
with creating these.

You tried to turn
my child against me!

And I trusted you
with everything!

Don't be stupid, Edward.

After all this now I
am giving the orders.

The tapes are
already in San Jose.

Well, if you've finished
playing out your

little mellow drama
I'll leave now.

I have a lot of work to do.

Would you please patch up
these neuropaths, professor?

Stop it, Daddy!

You can't help them.

That's pointless, Edward.

You're just another
mad scientist.

A millionaire quack!

How are you going to explain
all this horror to the police?

I don't believe her.

You know I love you.

I couldn't believe her.

My Jessica.

I know.

I know.

Ken, are you receiving me?

Hello?

Hello, Ken, honey.

Where are you?

I'm here at the Air Ranch.

Did you collect the
money from San Jose?

Yeah, I collected the money.

Okay, wait right there
I'll be right over.

We're rich baby!

We're rich!

Not "we".

Me.

You made one big mistake.

See the cashier's check
was already made out to me.

What is this bullshit?

No bullshit.

I've got the videotape too.

Jessica, sweetheart.

Help me get rid of this junk.

What?

What junk?

Sorry, Daddy, I'm in a hurry.

Ken's waiting for
me at the ranch.

I'll give you a call
from campus, okay?

Dad, wish me luck with Ken.

Thanks for reactivating George.

Ken!

Ken!

Ken!

Emergency program code!

Protection Jessica.

No!
