Did you really call the police?
– Stu
You bet your sorry ass I did.
– Sidney Prescott
[starting to cry] My mom and dad are gonna be so mad at me!
– Stu

What’s your favorite scary movie?
– Ghostface

Oh, my God. Randy I thought you were dead.
– Sidney Prescott
I probably should be. I never thought I’d be so happy to be a virgin.
– Randy

Who’s there?
– Casey
Never say “who’s there?” Don’t you watch scary movies? It’s a death wish. You might as well come out to investigate a strange noise or something.
– Ghostface

We all go a little mad sometimes.
– Billy

No, please don’t kill me, Mr. Ghostface, I wanna be in the sequel!
– Tatum

You sick fucks. You’ve seen one too many movies!
– Sidney Prescott
Now Sid, don’t you blame the movies. Movies don’t create psychos. Movies make psychos more creative!
– Billy

“I’ll send you a copy.” BAM! Bitch went down. “I’ll send you a copy.” BAM! Sid! Superbitch!
– Tatum

I wanna see breasts. I wanna see Jamie Lee’s breasts. When do we see Jamie Lee’s breasts?
– Stu
Breasts? Not until “Trading Places” in 1983. Jamie Lee was always a virgin in horror movies. She didn’t show her tits ’til she went legits.
– Randy

It’s the millennium. Motives are incidental.
– Randy

Jesus, the camera, hurry!
– Gale
My name isn’t Jesus.
– Kenny

Do you like scary movies?
– Phone Voice
What’s the point? They’re all the same. Some stupid killer stalking some big-breasted girl who can’t act who is always running up the stairs when she should be running out the front door. It’s insulting.
– Sidney Prescott

Guess I remembered the safety that time, bastard.
– Gale

Name the killer in Friday the 13th.
– Phone Voice
Jason! Jason! Jason!
– Casey
I’m sorry. That’s the wrong answer!
– Phone Voice
No, it’s not. No it’s not. It was Jason.
– Casey
Afraid not. No way.
– Phone Voice
Listen, it was Jason! I saw that movie 20 goddamn times!
– Casey
Then you should know that Jason’s mother, Mrs. Voorhees was the original killer. Jason didn’t show up until the sequel. I’m afraid that was a wrong answer.
– Phone Voice
[Weeping] You tricked me.
– Casey
Lucky for you there’s a bonus round, but poor Steve… I’m afraid he’s OUT!
– Phone Voice

What do I have to do to prove to you that I’m not a killer?
– Billy

The police are always off track with this shit! If they’d watch Prom Night, they’d save time! There’s a formula to it. A very simple formula!
– Randy
EVERYBODY’S A SUSPECT!
– Randy

Stupidity Leak!
– Tatum

People treat me like I’m the anti-Christ of television journalism.
– Gale

If I’m right about this, I could save a man’s life. Do you know what that would do for my book sales?
– Gale

Look, I am two seconds away from calling the police!
– Casey
They’ll never make it in time.
– Phone Voice

Can you tell me anything?
– Gale
Yeah, you’re a real pain in the ass!
– Tatum
