Dawn of the Dead 1978 quotes, page 2

We've got to find more fuel. Maybe closer to Cleveland.

Roger

No. We've got to stay out of the big cities. If they're anything like Philly, We may never get out alive.

Peter

We may never get out of anyplace alive. We almost didn't get out of here.

Roger

We're gettin' out of here fine. As long as there's not to many of those things around, we can handle them easy.

Peter

Yeah, well it wasn't one of those things that nearly blew me away.

Roger

We gotta stay in the sticks! There's bound to be more of those little private airports upstate.

There's the locks along the Allgheny. There's fuel stations there, state and private owned.

Roger

No, those are probably still manned. We don't need those hassles either.

They're just out after scavengers and looters.

Peter

Oh, you got papers for this limousine?

I've got GON I.D., and so does Fran.

Peter

Right, and we're up here doin' traffic reports? Wake up, sucker! We're thieves and we're bad guys. That's exactly what we are. We gotta find our own way.

Dummies. Dummies.

Dr. Foster

Every dead body that is not exterminated becomes one of them. It gets up and kills! The people it kills get up and kill!

Wooley

How the Hell come we stick these low-life bastards in these big-ass hotels anyway? Shit, man! This is better than I got!

Peter

I've seen half-a-dozen guys in my unit get bitten by those things. None of them lasted more than... three days.

Old Priest

Many have died, last week, on these streets. In the basement of this building, you will find them. I have given them the last rites, now, you do what you will. You are stronger than us... But soon, I think they be stronger than you. When the dead walk, señores, we must stop the killing... or lose the war.

Say goodbye, creep!

The normal question, the first question is, are these cannibals? No, they are not. Cannibalism in the true sense of the word implies an interspecies activity. These creatures cannot be considered human. They prey on humans. They do not prey on each other, that's the difference. They attack and they feed only on warm flesh. Intelligence? Seemingly no reasoning ability, but basic skills remain from a remembered everyday life. There have been reports of these creatures using tools. But even these are the most basic, the use of tools as bludgeons and so forth. I might point out that even animals have been known to adopt the use of tools in this manner. These creatures are nothing but pure, motorized instinct. We must not be lulled by the concept that they are our family members or our friends. They are not. They will not respond to such emotions.

They MUST be destroyed ON SIGHT!

We are down to the line, people. DOWN TO THE LINE!

We're still pretty close to Johnstown. Those rednecks are probably enjoying this whole thing.

Roger

Wooley's gone apeshit, man!

Dr. Foster

You're not running a talk show here, Mr. Berman! You can forget pitching an audience the moral bullshit they want to hear!

Roger

You bastards, you bastards! We got 'em, didn't we? We got this, man! We got this by the ass!

Francine

It's really all over...isn't it?
