since we don't know what his plans are.

- Water jug's in the car.

- What'd you put in it?

Nothing. I thought you were supposed

to put something in it.

- I thought you were. Why was I supposed to --

- I don't believe it.

Come on.

We'll go see.

[ Susan ]

It's very pretty up here.

[ Vicki ] Yeah. Great place for a picnic

with nothing to drink.

With all these trees around here,

there should be a stream somewhere.

[ David ]

There is--near the cabin.

- Watch your step.

- Oh!

Oh, darn.

-Jim!

- Wow.!

- What happened?

- Is that Dr. Watermann's cabin?

An explosion.

Stove or water heater, maybe.

No, it's caved-in, not blown-out.

Doesn't look like he was there

when it happened.

No signs of life.

Think I'll go up --

Can I help you?

Oh. Hello.

You the ranger here?

That's right.

Name's Asmodeus.

You looking for someone?

Yeah -- Dr. Watermann.

That was his cabin.

What happened to it?

I'm not sure.

Could have been a boulder

from up above.

Have you seen Dr. Watermann?

Are you friends of his?

- Yeah. We had an appointment today.

- He's not here.

I haven't seen him.

Anything I can do for you?

No, thank you.

We brought a picnic.

I guess we'll have it and go back to town.

Well, have fun.

See you later.

You'll probably find Dr. Watermann

back in town.

[ David ]

Right. Thank you.

Where's Vicki?

Hey, what are you do --

Hey, tell me I don't see that.

- [ Susan ] A castle.!

- [Jim ] I asked you not to tell me that.

I've only been here once,

and I'm not sure it's the same area.

But I sure never saw

or heard of a castle.

Far out. Looks like a picture

on a travel folder.

Yeah, for Transylvania.

- Let's go take a look at it.

- Yeah!

- How the heck do we get there?

- We can hike over that way and take a look.

Might be an entrance on the other side,

but it's too far.

This side's too steep

for the girls to climb.

Would like to get to it though.

It might be where Dr. Watermann is.

Well, doesn't cost anything to try.

- Susan?

- I'm with you.

This is the best way.

See the road?

- Some picnic, huh?

- [ Laughter Reverberating ]

It came from in there!

In the cave!

[ Laughter Continues ]

[ Laughter Continues ]

- [ Flapping Sound ]

- [ Laughter Continues ]

What --

[ Flapping Sound Continues ]

- What was that?

- How should I know?

[Jim ]

Anyone wanna go in there?

[ David ] Well, I'd like to,

if we had some way to see.

- Have you got a flashlight in the car?

- No, I haven't.

Matches.

All right, we'll --

- We'll make some torches.

- Torches. All right.

[ Gasps ]

Hey! Come here!

Come on.!

[Jim ]

Hey, babe, what do you got here?

Well, look at this.

[Jim ]

What a pair of gun boats.

He is retired and living in Palm Desert where he continues to write books.He wrote a book on Roger Corman and told Corman that he wanted to write a script for him. McGee did drafts of Sorority House Massacre II (1989) that were not used. He also wrote an un-used script for Joe Solomon and did a week's work on the script for Transylvania Twist with Jim Wynorski.
