Sheriff: "Seems like you're just plain scared"
Loomis: "Yeah..uh...yes I am. I met him fifteen years ago. I was told there was nothing left. No conscience, no understanding, even in the most rudimentary sense. No comprehension of right or wrong...good or evil...life or death. Here was this six year old boy with the darkest eyes, the blackest eyes...the devil's eyes. And behind those eyes laid the purest...evil! I spent the first eight years trying to reach him...and the next seven trying to keep him locked up, but now he's escaped...the evil has escaped...and nobody is safe. I think I'll stay here and wait for him to return, he'll be back.
Sheriff: "I think I'll notify my men and the radio and TV stations".
Loomis: "NO...don't do that. If you do that, people will see him on every streetcorner, in their homes. People will panic. He'll come back here... and I'll be waiting for him."
Sheriff: "I'll check back in an hour."
Don't suppose John Carpenter had good enough foresight back in '77 to see what was coming down the pike...do ya? Loomis' description of evil on the loose sure does fit Numbnuts to a T. :evilgrin:
