Wolfen

1981

(About the wolves.) Old Indian: They're shiftless. They might be gods!

Edddie Holt: It's not wolves, it's Wolfen. For 20,000 years Wilson- ten times your fucking Christian era- the 'skins and wolves, the great hunting nations, lived together, nature in balance. Then the slaughter came.

Edddie Holt: The smartest ones, they went underground into a new wilderness, YOUR CITIES. You have your technology but you lost. You lost your senses Old Indian: In their world, there can be no lies, no crimes. Edddie Holt: No need for detectives. Old Indian: In their eyes, YOU ARE THE SAVAGE.

Dewey Wilson: They kill to protect family? Old Indian: In the end, it's all for the HUNTING GROUND.

Dewey Wilson: They kill... Old Indian: The sick. The abandoned. Those who will not be missed. Dewey Wilson: More than that. Old Indian: They kill to survive. They kill to protect. Dewey Wilson: Family? Old Indian: Man kills for less. But in the end, it is all for the hunting ground.

Eddie Holt: You've seen them, haven't you? You don't have the eyes of the Hunter. You have the eyes of the dead.

Warren: I'm going to team you up with Dewey Wilson on this Christopher VanderVeer thing. Rebecca Neff: I didn't know he was back. I thought he retired, disabled, mental... ? Warren: He had a lot of family problems, he started to drink a little too much, police work... piled up on him. He's a good man, you'll like him. Rebecca Neff: Okay, fine.

(Eddie and Dewey are up on the top of a bridgeworks.) Eddie Holt: Shape shifting. We do it for kicks. Turn yourself into a different animal. One night a deer, next night a salmon... Dewey Wilson: Or a wolf? Eddie Holt: Sure. (Eddie unhooks Dewey's safety line) Or an eagle. (Dewey looks down, a long way...) Eddie Holt: C'mon Dewey, just flap your arms and jump, its easy. It's all in the head. Dewey Wilson: That would be murder. You wouldn't kill anyone else, would you? Eddie Holt: That's what they pay you to find out...

Warren: I'll be God-fucking-damned.
