A scene from The Frighteners 1996
Sergeant Hiles
[Frank and Ray are passing through a graveyard with numerous ghosts around, when one ghost in the uniform of a U.S. Marine shows up]

What in the hell is going on out here?! [The ghosts all gasp and fall back into their graves] Get back in your graves!

Frank Bannister

Aw, son of a-!

Sergeant Hiles

Holy Jesus! Frank Bannister!

Frank Bannister

Go ahead, I'll handle this.

Sergeant Hiles
[Ray goes off to run ahead while Bannister stays behind]

What in the hell are you doing in my graveyard?! You have been told to stay away! [pause] SOUND OFF LIKE YOU GOT A PAIR!

Frank Bannister

Yeah, well, it's a public place, Hiles.

Sergeant Hiles

I do not like you! You cannot bring your spooks in here without MY PERMISSION! DISAPPEAR, SCUMBAG! [throws a punch; Frank tries to hit back but is unable to] I am not one of your shitty little emanations, Bannister! You cannot push spirits around! You are scum! Using spooks to put the Frighteners on people! THAT MAKES ME PHYSICALLY ILL! We got a lot of lowlives around here! [He changes into a heavily armed Marine with two M60 machine guns] And I will provide an armed responses at the first signs of trouble! They must be contained! [He starts firing his guns everywhere so that all the spirits duck back into their graves]

Frank Bannister

Catch you later, Hiles. [hurries away]

Sergeant Hiles

Hey! My tour of duty runs another 85 years! There's a piece of dirt with your name on it, Bannister! I'm waiting for you, you little maggot!
