Sleepwalkers

Synopsis: Charles Brady and his mother Mary move to a small Indiana town, having recently fled Bodega Bay, California after draining and killed a young girl there. They are sleepwalkers - they can change their appearance and they need the lifeforce from young women. Charles has picked out young Tanya Robertson, whom he meets at a local high school, as his next victim. He asks her out for a date and invites her home... however, she did not suspect his real interest in her. On their first date, a picnic at a nearby cemetery, Charles attempts to drain the lifeforce from Tanya for himself and his mother.

What's happened here?

Martha and Carl Brodie,

mother and son.

No one's seen them

since Tuesday.

The car is a trans am,

blue with yellow pinstriping.

California license: 2clg592.

No one's seen that

since Tuesday, either.

God, I just hope nothing horrible

happened to them. They were so close!

Ma'am, please, step back.

Sheriff, what

do you think happened?

I don't know, but somebody

sure doesn't like cats.

Sh*t!

Looks like the place has been

empty for a hundred years.

Well, it hasn't.

What the hell was that?

Jesus!

It's a little girl.

What's that in her hair?

A rose.

Tanya.

- Hi.

- Shhh.

He can't hear us.

Sh*t!

Come on.

He'll be back.

You always get 'em

sooner or later.

Dance with me.

I don't wanna dance.

Sure you do.

You'll love this one.

Come on.

What's for dinner?

Roast chicken

and cranberry dressing.

Pumpkin pie for dessert.

Going anywhere tonight?

To the movies, maybe.

With a friend?

With a special friend?

All by my lonesome.

Oh, don't ask your mother.

Well, actually, there's

a girl that works there.

I thought I might ask her out.

Oh, you might?

She's pretty too.

Is she nice?

I don't know.

I guess I'll find out, won't I?

- Jealous?

- Concerned.

Right.

Concerned.

Mm-hmm, concerned.

Should I be jealous?

Do you like that?

Oh, mother.

?? Do you love me??

?? Do you love me, baby??

?? Do you love me??

?? Oh, work it out, baby??

?? Work, work???? I'm

gonna drive you crazy??

?? Work, work???? Uh, just

a little bit slow now??

?? Work??

?? I can mash potato??

?? I can mash potato??

?? I can do the twist??

?? I can do the twist??

?? Tell me, baby??

?? Tell me, baby??

?? Do you like it like this????

Do you like it like this??

?? Tell me??

?? Tell me??

?? Tell me, wow??

?? Do you love me??

?? Do you love me??

?? Do you love me, baby??

?? Do you love me??

?? Now do you love me??

?? Do you love me??

?? Now that I??

?? Watch me now...????

Aaah! Oh!

You scared me.

Sorry. Sorry.

Oh, no. I'll take that.

Charles Brady.

Thanks for the help,

Charles Brady.

Don't mention it.

Could I get a popcorn

and a medium Mr. pibb, please?

Yes.

I'm very embarrassed.

Am I blushing?

- You look good in red, Tanya.

- How'd you know my name?

English, period four,

creative writing.

Mr. fallows,

the weird and terrible.

Oh, you're the new guy.

From Ohio?

Paradise falls.

Oh.

Popcorn.

Go ahead.

You mean... free?

Shhh.

Thanks.

I don't suppose you'd like a ride

home after work tonight, would you?

Um, my dad picks me up.

Mmm, nice dad.

Yeah.

Besides, what

would your girlfriend say...

If you gave the popcorn girl

a ride home?

No girlfriend.

I'm new in town, remember?

Thanks.

I'll see you in class.

Oh, oh, wait!

Um... welcome to Travis.

Thanks.

Thanks a lot.

Oh, my God!

Hi!

I'm okay.

How's my girl?

I'm good, dad.

Good.

Fasten your seat belt.

Tanya.

It's my son, officer.

- Cat?

Having himself one hissy fit,

I'll tell you.

I'm sorry, officer. It's late,

but this allergy is so severe.

Yeah, I know. I got one too.

Mine's to the I.R.S.

Y'all have a good night.

Thank you, officer.

It just ignored the trap.

It was right by the window.

It's okay.

It's gone now.

I'll set some more traps

in the morning.

Did you bring me anything?

Anything special in mind?

Am I beautiful?

You're always

beautiful, mother.

So...

Did you ask

this mystery girl out?

What kind of a girl would go

out with a guy she just met?
