The Amityville Horror Page #5

don't you think

you sound a little medieval?

My being a modernist

has nothing to do with it.

I happened to

check into the murders

and the 20-year-old boy

who killed his parents

and his four brothers and sisters.

When he was at trial, he testified

that he heard voices in the house.

The voices told him to do it!

I was in the house,

and I heard the voices, too!

And I also felt

the presence in the house.

There was a presence

in that house!

Half the killers in this country

say the same thing.

"The voices.

The voices told me to do it. "

I heard them, Father!

I heard voices!

Then explain my hand

if you can do that.

Go on! Explain how

the car went out of control.

Father Bolen was with me.

You tell him.

The wheel locked,

and then the...

The wheel locked.

How about

a mechanical defect?

I'd blame Detroit

a lot faster than the devil.

Seems like every month

there's some kind of recall.

I see. We're just gonna

walk away from it.

Has that become

the fashion now, to cover up?

Nothing to walk away from.

- I think it's nonsense!

- There's nothing to cover up.

I think

it's bureaucratical bullshit!

What do you think I am?

I am not some

pink cheat seminarian

who doesn't know the difference

between the supernatural

and a bad clam.

I am a trained psychotherapist!

I went into that house!

What I saw there was real,

what I felt there was real,

and what I

heard there was real!

Gentlemen, I have a family

in my parish that's at great risk!

And they are facing

real danger.

Who the hell

do you think you are?!

You think your secular education

gives you the right

to question the Church?

Sit down!

Sit!

You haven't told us one thing

that can't be written off

as simple hysteria.

Even psychotherapists

lose touch with reality sometimes.

Your education

doesn't give you any immunity.

Father Nuncio and I

have seen our share of phenomena,

and never once did any of them

turn out to be Satanist!

Let's understand each other, Father.

To me, the Church...

It's my home.

The Church is my strength.

And I need her now.

And that family...

needs her... now.

Frank...

How long has it been

since you've seen your family?

What do you mean?

We think you

should take a vacation.

Good morning, Father.

Good day, Father.

You could do

with a haircut and shave.

- What do you think?

- Very uptown.

I thought you guys

had a small business.

Believe me, we do.

Getting smaller all the time.

What's the matter?

I don't want to go any closer.

Carolyn, what are you

talking about?

It gives me the creeps.

Hiya, George.

How's it going?

I wouldn't have come out

and bothered you,

but your line's always busy.

Nobody's seen you for days.
