Bloody Mama Page #2

Synopsis: A psychological gangster film based on fact. Machine gun totin' Ma Barker lead her family gang (her sons) on a crime spree in the Depression era. Her loyal brood have every perversion imaginable. The sadistic Herman sleeps with his Ma. When Fred Barker is released from prison, he brings home his cell mate/lover Kevin Dirkman, who also sleeps with Ma, much to Fred's chagrin. Lloyd Barker is a spaced-out drug addict who sniffs glue if nothing better is around. Ma kidnaps happy-go-lucky millionaire Sam Adams Pendlebury and holds him for ransom. Arthur Barker - Ma's wallflower son - and Herman's hooker lady friend Mona Gibson also figure in the story. The bloody finale is virtually choreographed and a visual stunner. Filmed in the Ozarks.

Shut up, Herman.

There ain't no divorces

in the Barker family. Never was.

He's your pa and you love him, remember?

You always love him, boys.

You love your pa.

Sure, Ma.

It was only just that...

George did everything

the way he was supposed to do it.

He was a born loser, and I ain't,

and you boys ain't.

You gotta fight the bastards always, boys.

You gotta remember you gotta fight 'em.

KA TE:
The world was sure changing

from when I was a little gal.

Women was showing

their bodies in public,

smoking, doing God knows what else.

I'm sure glad I didn't raise me any girls.

Who knows how they'd ha ve turned out?

You know, some people

even tried to put through

an anti-lynching bill in Congress?

But a lot of folks

went to Washington to help defeat it.

Anyway, my boys and me

were never much for politics.

If we had to steal, we did it our way.

- Morning.

- MAN:
Morning.

How much is it?

- 50 cents.

- 50 cents?

What, are you crazy?

50 cents just to cross over

to the other side?

It won't cost you nothing

to stay on this side.

- Stupid!

- KATE:
Damn fool.

I need a quarter.

A quarter? How we gonna buy gasoline

if we give old skinny a quarter?

HERMAN:
Shut up, Freddie.

How much you got?

Come on!

Dime.

Seven pennies, Herman.

So, three buffaloes and one penny.

How much is that?

How's business, Captain?

$17, Herman.

$18.23.

Good.

Come on.

HERMAN:
Come on, old man, open up.

Come on.

(BOYS WHOOPING)

HERMAN:
Come on. Come on.

(SCREAMS)

(GRUNTS)

HERMAN:
Get him! Let's get him.

(ALL YELLING)

HERMAN:
Son of a b*tch!

(ALL GRUNTING)

HERMAN:
God damn it!

- Get him. Help!

- I can't...

Get on the ferry!

Let's go! Come on!

Hell! Move over, Freddie.

Herman, grab him! Grab him, Herman.

HERMAN:
Push him up! Push him up!

(MAN GROANING)

(MAN EXCLAIMING)

Look inside his wallet, Arthur.

- Come on, get it.

- How much you got?

- $2.

- $2?

Get over here and take his arm.

Go ahead.

He thinks you're gonna

put your foot down, Herman.

(MAN GROANING)

Maybe I am gonna

put my foot down, Lloyd.

Ma wouldn't like it.

You don't know

what Ma would like, Freddie.

Ma wouldn't like it.

God damn it, don't tell me

what Ma would like!

(MAN CHOKING)

(GASPS)

Herman had one of his bad moments.

KATE:
Didn't you, Herman?

That's what I had, Ma.

Baby?

Herman, tonight you'll sleep with Ma.

You'll sleep with Ma.

She'll keep away all the dreams.

I didn't mean to kill him, Ma.

I know that you didn't, baby.

I know that.

In this world, we can't always

do what we wanna do, Herman.

(SOBBING)

We can't always have

what we wanna have.

But, baby, we got each other.

Now, come on.

Come on, now. We're gonna sing,

we're gonna sing a hymn.
