Venom: Let There Be Carnage quotes
Page 1 of 2
Cletus
You are real.
Carnage
I am. And once I kill that thing that made me, we will be indestructible.
Cletus
I know where to find him, but first, I need you to help me find something I lost.
Carnage
Deal?
Cletus
Deal.
Eddie Brock
Anything you wanna unburden yourself with, before... [Eddie points to the execution chamber] this... happens?
Cletus Kasady
Yes. I have wishes to bestow upon you. I want to wish you... this heartbreak.
Venom
Uh-oh. Too late.
Cletus
I wish for you to see out your days alone, as you always have been.
Venom
Watch it, pal!
Eddie
Where are you going with this?
Cletus
You are a cancer to everyone who ever loved you, Eddie. Deceived your trusting fiancée. No wonder Daddy could never look at you again, after you killed his wife, your mother, just by being born.
Venom
[lunges towards Cletus]
You son of a bitch!
Eddie
This is about me wanting to live without you whining in my ear all the time about eating bad guys, or, like, nagging me about Anne, or destroying my place, or destroying my life!
Venom
Do you know how lucky you are that I chose you?
Eddie
You chose me? Buddy, I'm the only person who took you in when your friends kicked you off the planet Ming-Mong 'cause you are a reject! You are a pariah! Lethal protector, my ass! You couldn't protect anything! You are useless! You couldn't get a job down here cleaning toilets!
Venom
[Venom lunges forward, breaking Eddie's nose]
I'm sorry! I-I don't know what came over me! Please, let me fix it. So I can break it again!
Eddie
[Venom lunges forward again, Eddie yelps and falls back on the couch. He remains silent for a moment before taking his hands away from his nose, which is again repaired. Rage builds in his eyes.]
You son of a bitch!
Venom
[Eddie slaps Venom hard, who violently drags Eddie out of a sitting position and forces him to stick to his refrigerator. Eddie tries to cling to it for support, but Venom throws him to the ground as Eddie pulls the fridge with him. Venom pulls him along to the other side of the room, having Eddie bump into the overturned fridge, before throwing him into a shelf.]
OUT!! GET OUT!! TAKE YOUR STUFF!! GET OUT!!!
Eddie
This is my house!
Homeless Man
[Venom throws more things out of Eddie's apartment. A homeless man takes notice of the commotion and shouts towards the open window.] [bellows from below]
Keep it down up there!
Venom
[Venom takes a lamp and shatters it against a wall. Eddie tries to get up but Venom throws Eddie towards a wall.]
GET OUT!!
Venom
[Eddie moans in distress as he looks up to see Venom throwing everything out with his tentacles -- plates, furniture, etc. It all comes to a head when Venom dangles an expensive Sony Bravia flat-screen television out the window. Eddie takes one of the chickens and raises it over his head.]
Sonny?! [pops out of Eddie's shoulder from his head] You wouldn't dare!
Eddie
Oh, absolutely.
Eddie
[The two of them stare each other down briefly before their attention turns to the television. Venom drops it and it crashes to the ground below, the screen shattering on impact.] [rushes to the window]
No, no, NO, NO!
Venom
YEAH!!!
Homeless Man
[as Eddie looks down at the remains of his television]
I'm calling the police!
Eddie
I am so sorry! [walks away from the window; mutters] Show yourself.
Venom
[Venom emerges again and Eddie throws any pretenses of civility out the window, throwing a right hook at Venom, who dodges it effortlessly. Venom wraps his tentacle head around Venom's neck like a noose and begins choking Eddie while moving in to lick his face. Eddie grabs Venom's tongue and tugs down on it, causing Venom to launch Eddie across the room, where he lands flat on his back.]
You can't win! [flips Eddie over onto his front] Take a look at me. Look at the size of you. Puny.
Venom
[Eddie grabs a bowling ball and smashes it across Venom's face, knocking out most of the symbiote's teeth.]
HOW DARE YOU!! [regrows the teeth and flips Eddie again before pinning him to the ceiling] I guess this is goodbye!
Eddie
Oh, yeah! Finally, something we agree on... [activates the fire alarm, separating himself and Venom, the symbiote launches itself out the window and towards the homeless man]
Homeless Man
What in the world? [The symbiote falls on him, bonding in seconds.] Oh, this crazy shit!
Eddie
[Venom forms over the homeless man and stalks off. Meanwhile, in his apartment, Eddie sighs with relief, alone in his head for the first time in ages. A crash outside catches his attention.]
No. No.
Eddie
[Another crash. Eddie runs over to the window.]
No, no, no, no-- No!
Venom
[Outside, Venom has begun destroying Eddie's motorcycle.]
YEAH! [chucks a piece of it towards Eddie's apartment, then another]
Eddie
No!
Venom
Oh, yeah!
Eddie
[Venom stalks off, for real this time.]
No--
Eddie
[Venom stumbles and the homeless man emerges from his form. Venom quickly jumps to another host -- a cyclist who begins screaming. Eddie runs towards a separate window, following the sounds.]
No, no, no-- [leans out the window.] I wish I never met you!
Venom
[Venom forms a middle finger directed towards Eddie.]
SAYONARA! [re-attaches himself to the cyclist, who bikes away screaming]
Venom
Come here. [unrolls massive scroll of paper] Look.
Eddie Brock
I'm looking.
Venom
Grab those [markers].
Eddie Brock
[grabs the markers]
All right?
Venom
[Venom, controlling Eddie, draws a masterpiece that makes very little sense to Eddie]
Now... what do you think?
Eddie Brock
[baffled]
I think I'm Pablo Picasso.
Venom
NO. [sends scroll flying]
Eddie Brock
Okay?
Venom
Come here. Look. [draws another masterpiece that again makes no sense to Eddie] Well, say what you see.
Eddie Brock
Uhhh... it's a house.
Venom
NEVER MIND. [tosses drawing aside then makes another one that... well, you know]
Eddie Brock
Oh, I know this one! It's a TREE.
Venom
IDIOT.
Carnage
[Cletus transforms into Carnage after Venom shows up at his and Shriek's wedding]
There you are. Death to you, Father.
Priest
[in terror]
No!
Carnage
Not you, Father. [points at Venom] You, Father.
Venom
[becomes afraid]
Oh, shit! [Venom transforms back into Eddie]
Eddie
Uh, where are you going? What are you doing?
Venom
This is much worse than I thought! That is a red one! Wow! Uh...
Eddie
Red one...
Venom
We should leave! Immediately. Annie will get over it! We never liked her anyway! So, let's go.
Eddie
Now?
Venom
Congratulations to the happy couple. WE. [makes Eddie point to the door] ARE LEAVING.
Cletus
[after transforming back from Carnage]
Eddie! Yoo-hoo!
Eddie
I'll be right with you. [to Venom] Okay, you need to come out right now, because I am feeling super, super vulnerable right here.
Shriek
Brock's just like you?
Cletus
Not for long. Eddie! Over here!
Eddie
You need to come out right now! I will let you eat everybody! You can eat them all! Apart from him! [points at the priest] In the robe. You cannot eat him.
Venom
Promise?
Eddie
I promise! [Eddie transforms into Venom] Thank you...
Cletus
[Cletus transforms into Carnage, Venom charges at them, and Shriek shrieks, damaging Carnage, before the latter smacks her out of the way]
BABY!!!
Carnage
[to Shriek]
Shut. Your. Mouth.
Venom
Marriage trouble? Already?!
Venom
[Carnage screams at Venom, while showing off his deadly spikes]
Time to die! [Eddie: That's the spirit!] I mean us. WE are going to die!
Venom
[Eddie is watching a Spanish telenova, inside a hotel room]
I love this show.
Eddie
yeah.
Venom
Maximilliano's feelings are not being validated.
Eddie
Yeah, well, he never should have kept such an insane secret, man.
Venom
We all have a past, Eddie.
Eddie
What, are you... hiding stuff from me?
Venom
Eighty-billion light-years of hive knowledge, across universes, would explode your tiny little brain.
Eddie
What... what does that even mean, man?
Venom
Well, let me give you a taste, then. Just the smallest fraction of the things we Symbiotes have experienced.
Eddie
Okay?
Venom
Ready, Eddie?
Eddie
Yeah.
Venom
[As Venom gives Eddie a glimpse of the hive knowledge, the room begins to change]
What's happening?
Eddie
[jumps off the bed]
No, no! No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
Venom
[panicked]
What the hell is that?!
Eddie
[turns towards the object that has startled Venom]
Oh... that's, uh... that's just a towel. [Looking around in panic] Where are we? What did you do?
Venom
It wasn't me! [Eddie's attention is turned to the TV, where J. Jonah Jameson is speaking]
J. Jonah Jameson
[On TV]
Incredibly, this shocking revelation, brought to life by yours truly, has only raised more...
Eddie
[notices Venom's alertness]
What? What is it?
Jameson
... the life of Peter Parker. [Venom transforms and approaches the TV] AKA Spider-Man. AKA the Spider-Menace. But rest assured, dear viewers, we here at the Daily Bugle will...
Venom That... guy... [licks the image of Spider-Man on the screen]
Cletus Kasady / Carnage
[last words]
I wanted your friendship...
The Venom Symbiote
[sees Peter Parker's identity as Spider-Man exposed on TV]
That guy.
The Venom Symbiote
Eddie, we should be out there snacking on bad guys! I am a predator! I need to be free.
The Venom Symbiote
**** this guy!
Cletus Kasady / Carnage
I have tasted blood before, my friend, and that is not it. Eddie's got a secret!
Cletus Kasady / Carnage
I’m a killer. With or without the monster, Eddie.
Cletus Kasady / Carnage
I'm not a crazy man. I am a vengeful one.
Cletus Kasady / Carnage
I've been thinking about you, Eddie, because you and I are the same.
