Deadly Blessing
1981
Isaiah Schmidt: If thine eye offends thee, pluck it out. If thine own hand offends thee, then in God's name, cut it off!
Vicky Anderson: (Holding a gun) Oh well, it doesn't take an Einstein to pull the trigger!
(In reference to Martha's land) Vicky Anderson: If I owned a piece of property like this and I kicked the bucket, my parents would start building condos on it on the way home from the funeral!
Martha Schmidt: You want me to run just because you can't find a killer?
Vicky Anderson: What's an incubus? Martha Schmidt: It's some kind of demon that stalks the faithful in their sleep, or just comes and takes you like a beast! Lana Marcus: Oh God!
William Gluntz: INCUBUS! INCUBUS!
Fat Boy: Father Isaiah said this place was with the incubus! If he knew...
Vicky Anderson: So who are these Hittites anyway, Amish, or what? Lana Marcus: No connection. According to Martha, the Hittites make the Amish look like swingers!
John Schmidt: What is a time warp? Vicky Anderson: That's when someone from the twentieth century wakes up, one morning, back in the eighteenth century!
Vicky Anderson: I feel like I've been in a time warp. There's no jets, planes, telephone polls, or power lines. John Schmidt: What's a warp? Vicky Anderson: That's when someone from the twentieth century wakes up one morning back in the eighteenth century.
Martha Schmidt: Touch me there again and I'll scream!
Louisa Stohler: I hope its a girl! Boys ain't nothin but trouble!
Lana Marcus: Hey, hows the champ? Martha Schmidt: I'm fine! Vickys done everything but inject me with chicken soup!
Louisa Stohler: Men around here's hopeless!
Faith Stohler: I'm Faith. F-A-I-T-H, like in believe.
Louisa Stohler: I don't suppose the sheriff's been much good. Lana Marcus: No, as a matter of fact all he does is tell us to get out. Louisa Stohler: Well, I wouldn't be surprised if he was a Hittite himself.
Sheriff: I'll be damned if these guys don't eat brimstones for breakfast!
(Trying to elicit the Incubus) Melissa: Thou tell me thy name, the date, and thy hour of coming out! I command thee!
Jim Schmidt: Already we're history!
Martha Schmidt: His people? His people turned their backs on him! YOU ordered it!
(first lines) Narrator: In the rolling hills of a sinful farm community, untouched by time, a gruesome secret has been protected for generations.
(last lines) Narrator: The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder.
