From Beyond Page #2

Synopsis: Dr. Edward Pretorius and his assistant, the physician Crawford Tillinghast, have developed the Resonator, a machine to stimulate the sixth sense through the pineal gland. When Crawford activates the apparatus, he sees creatures flying in the air and he summons Dr. Pretorius. The experiment goes out of control and Dr. Pretorius refuses to turn off the Resonator. Meanwhile their neighbor calls the police, and when the police officers arrive, they see Crawford trying to escape from his house and Dr. Pretorius beheaded. Crawford is sent to a mental institution under the supervision of the sadistic Dr. Bloch. However, the prominent psychiatrist Dr. Katherine McMichaels requests the custody of Crawford and Detective Bubba Brownlee that is investigating the case stays with them. Katherine goes with Crawford and Bubba to see the Resonator and turns the machine on. Dr. Pretorius returns in a mutant shape and attacks them, in the beginning of a gore night with weird life forms.

I believe you, Crawford.

I wanna see what you saw.

Hi! You must be Doc McMichaels.

No. I'm Dr McMichaels.

- Oh, hi.

- Hello.

Then you must be...

- This is Dr Crawford Tillinghast.

- The crazy.

I'm Sergeant Buford Brownlee but

my team mates call me Bubba.

I used to play pro football.

We were all crazy.

Not exactly cheery.

Sorry about that. Childproof lock.

Last stop. Everybody out.

Dr Tillinghast, would you care to

show us around?

Doctor, if you're telling us the truth,

the only way to free yourself

is to go back... through this door.

Come on, doc.

There's nothing to be afraid of.

Look, I'll show you.

See? What did I tell you?

Bubba, you all right?

Yeah, yeah. OK.

Electrical cables.

We needed more power so...

they rewired the whole house.

Where are the circuit breakers, doctor?

Doctor?

Tillinghast.

Damn! Have we lost him?

He knows this place better than we do.

First thing's to find the power.

- Hey, wait a minute.

- What?

I'll bet these cables lead

to the resonator.

First we find our missing mental patient.

I want more yelling.

This guy was into some weird sh*t.

Where's that mouth? I wanna kiss it.

That's him.

Dr Edward Pretorious.

I don't care about his private life.

The Pretorious resonator.

- Is that how you hacked up Pretorious?

- That's where I hit it.

I knocked a fork off.

There.

There it is.

What do you want me to do with him?

- Let him go.

- Are you crazy too?

He's reliving it - the night of

the murder. Let him go.

DA says you call the signals.

Yes.

This is how it was.

That's where it ate him.

Wait a minute. What ate who?

We can start in the morning, Crawford.

I've started.

All right.

All this talk about eating

is making me hungry.

How about we have some dinner?

The real danger here is starving.

Pretty, isn't she?

She is beautiful.

So how's it going, doc?

Need some help?

He used to bring beautiful women here.

They'd eat fine meals, drink fine wine,

listen to music.

But it always ended with screaming.

And I would just lie there

and listen to them.

Screaming.

Your boss had some screws loose.

He was a genius.

It's just that the five senses weren't

enough for him. He wanted more.

Is it finished? Are we ready?

Yes.

I...

had to bypass the computer

because the magnetic field

erased the program.

And of course the monitor's

completely useless

so the entire system has to be

manually operated.

And unfortunately the resonator was

so severely damaged

that I had to convert it to

just an on-off system.

When we reach 20,000 MHz,

we throw this switch

and a powerful magnetic field vibrates

these forks at a precise frequency.

Stimulating the pineal gland,

allowing us to see with it.
