From Beyond Page #3

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.

Listen to me.

Don't move when we're in

the field of the vibrations.

- Why?

- You move and they may see you. It...

will see you.

What is this "it" anyway?

Pray you don't see for yourself.

Now, I'm staying right by this switch.

If it appears, I'm shutting down.

Are you sure we're ready for this?

- Yes.

- Please...

Remember... Stay still.

This looks real great, people.

Oh, man.

What the hell is that?

- What?

- I don't know what.

No, don't move!

Holy sh*t!

Is this what you saw?

Yes. These things are

around us all the time.

It's coming.

- Bubba, are you all right?

- No!

Lost a little piece, but I'll be fine.

When you move in the field

it can sense you.

How far does the field extend?

I'm turning it off.

Crawford!

No.

Who is it?

Show yourself.

Welcome home, Crawford.

I'm glad you came back.

Who's the lovely woman?

It can't be you.

Dr Pretorious?

You have me at a disadvantage, my dear.

Crawford, where are your manners?

Bring your friend to me.

- I saw you die.

- No.

Not die. Just pass beyond.

It was horrible.

A necessary rite of passage.

Quite wonderful, in fact.

Where have you been hiding?

Move toward me, my dear.

I want to see you.

- How?

- Did I survive?

I am the master here.

Is it...

Is it really you, Edward?

Touch me.

If it pleases you.

If it helps you understand.

It's just a body, but my mind

is indivisible.

Bodies change.

That will be quite enough of that.

I feel exhilarated.

We almost died.

Incredible creature. It must have total

bodily control on a molecular level.

Yes, and Edward's mind.

He's become the thing that ate him.

Crawford, we saw the same things.

We've proved you're not insane.

I'm not so sure.

No. You faced your fear

and you overcame it.

You saved our lives.

Yeah. I owe you one.

Want some breakfast?

How can you eat after that?

Can't work without eating.

What work?

I've got to record the results.

The pineal gland was stimulated.

It gave me one hell of a headache.

Expansion of the pineal.

I'll have to do a study of the CAT scans

of schizophrenics.

If there's a statistical correlation

between schizophrenia and

an enlarged pineal, why...

they may be seeing or feeling

what we saw.

Their minds may be influenced

by those creatures.

Well, how about the hard-on I got?

Is there a statistical correlation

for that too?

Well... We know that the pineal gland

helps to regulate the sex drive.

Perhaps pineal stimulation causes a...

an accompanying sexual stimulation.

There's so much to learn.

Well, we learned what we came for.

He ain't crazy and that...

"it" ate Pretorious's head.

They're gonna think we're crazy

but that's their problem.
