My Boyfriend's Back (1993)

Post by bunniefuu »

[Boy] All my life I've been

in love with Missy McCloud.

That's her, back at her

first grade birthday party.

Even at the age of six,

Missy was the kind of girl...

that everyone just liked

being around, me especially.

That's me in the back, with the

little red fireman's hat on.

And that is the most amazing

present in the world.

It took me almost a year

to save up enough to buy it.

And when she opened it, I was sure

she'd fall helplessly in love with me.

- It couldn't fail.

- I love it.

Johnny, don't you have

something for Missy?

[Johnny Narrating]

This was it, my golden moment.

In front of everyone, the most

exotic creature alive...

would fall totally in love

with me, forever.

I had the confidence.

I had the gift.

- Well, son?

- But I wimped out.

[Woman]

All right, kids, cake time!

Come on!

[Kids Laughing, Shouting]

What are you

looking at, dirt bag?

Here, honey,

you sit there.

[Woman]

Make a wish.

- Happy birthday!

- [Man] That's my girl.

[Johnny Narrating] Over the next

12 years, I lusted after Missy.

She filled out

in all the right places...

the ones I'd been reading about

in the National Geographic.

The more she grew up, the more

helplessly in love I became.

That was the problem.

Well, you know what they say:

love makes you do crazy things.

Well, my love for Missy drove me

to do the most unimaginable thing...

one human being can do to another,

but that comes later.

My story begins at the end of

my senior year in high school...

on the historic day after Missy broke up

with Buck Van Patten...

her boyfriend

for the last six years.

I was ecstatic.

This day was the beginning

of the end of my life.

[Alarm Ringing]

Damn right, 7:15.

[Groans]

Huh.

Doom.

Hi, Mom. Hi, Dad.

- What's your hurry there, son?

- Today I'm going to ask...

the most perfect girl

in the world to the prom.

Oh, you're going to ask

your own mother, eh?

[Giggles]

Oh, you.

Sit down, honey.

Breakfast is ready.

- No time, Mom.

- Always time for a good breakfast.

- You're absolutely right.

- A donut isn't breakfast.

It's fine, Ma.

Where's the vitamin C?

Where's the fiber?

[Johnny]

I'll eat on the way.

Well, that way better not take you

across Mrs. Jones's yard, son.

We don't want the neighbors

to think ill of us.

- Hi, Mrs. Smith.

- ♪ You say you wanna see me ♪

- ♪ But then you change your mind ♪

- Morning, Johnny.

- ♪ You say we were meant to be ♪

- Morning, Mrs.Jones. Hope you don't think ill of me.

♪ But it's the wrong time ♪

- Oh!

- [Groans]

♪ Maybe I'm not

the right girl for you ♪

- ♪ Because I work too hard to believe it's true ♪

- Good morning.

- Hi.

- ♪ But then I love all the crazy things you do ♪

- ♪ So I'm in limbo ♪

- Hi, Johnny. - Hello.

♪ I'm dancin' in limbo ♪

♪ I ask you yes or no

You tell me maybe ♪

- [Man] Good morning, John.

- [Woman] Beautiful day!

- ♪ I'm sinking down so low I think I'm in Hades ♪

- It certainly is.

♪ Well, Dante

never had it so good ♪

♪ 'Cause if it's hell I'm in

at least it's understood ♪

if I only could ♪

♪ But I'm in limbo ♪

♪ I'm dancin' in limbo ♪

♪ They don't know

what they want from me ♪

♪ And maybe I don't know

where I wanna be ♪

♪ But with the way things look

I know we're permanently ♪

- ♪ Yeah, I'm in limbo ♪

- Slow it down, Johnny.

- Hi, Mrs. Applebaum.

- Hi, Johnny. How are you?

♪ Why don't you

shake your body down ♪

- [Bell Ringing]

- ♪ We're gonna groove in ambiguity ♪

♪ Until we hit the ground♪♪

[Johnny Narrating]

There she is.

That's Missy, all grown up.

And that's my friend Eddie.

He's a d*ck, but I like him.

Hey, Missy. I just wanted to say

you look really nice today...

in a physically perfect,

newly available kind of way.

- Thanks.

- Extinguish all talking.

Now who can tell me

how heroes are created?

- Gerald?

- Th-That's a tricky question.

I don't think heroes are born,

I think they're made.

They're normal men faced with

extraordinary circumstances.

My personal hero

is Jane Goodall.

When she was born she didn't know

anything about apes and their culture...

- but as she grew, she studied really hard...

- Hey, Tiger.

- You talkin' to me?

- Mm-hmm.

I know that you've been really concerned

lately that you're still a virgin...

and you don't have

a date to the prom.

And that you're

sexually stupid.

But those things,

they mean nothing to me.

I love you just the way you are.

Oh, I see. I'm dreaming.

♪♪ [Marching]

Johnny! Dingle!

[Announcer] We're here at the Fair view gymnasium,

the site of Johnny Dingle's...

most ambitious

sexual challenge to date.

And there's

Johnny Dingle himself...

looking really pumped up

for tonight's event.

The crowd just loves this kid!

- It looks like he may go all the way tonight!

- [Starting g*n Fires]

- And there he goes!

- [Blows Whistle]

- Oh, and a flag on the play!

- What?

Personal foul.

The challenger, Johnny Dingle...

is not using

a regulation-size unit.

He's disqualified!

- What do you mean it's not regulation?

- [Crowd Booing]

This is the most pathetic

sexual fantasy I've ever seen.

[Booing]

Say good night, sex boy.

- [Bell Ringing]

- No!

Go get her.

[P.A. System] Attention, students.

There will be a surprise fire drill...

- Missy.

- Yeah?

I, uh, I have something

I want to ask.

Okay, sh**t.

- Are you trying to hypnotize me?

- No, no, um.

No, what I want

to ask you is this:

since you're not

seeing Buck anymore...

I was wondering if

maybe you'd like to go...

- [Buck] Make way!

- ♪♪ [Marching]

Move.

Move!

Buck, what are you doing?

What is this?

- I am so sorry. I'm an idiot.

- Well, no kidding.

You stand me up, and then

you don't even call me.

My car broke down.

I had to walk eight miles through

the rain to get to a telephone.

- When I got there, you were already gone.

- Really?

I would walk on glass...

and eat donkeys for you.

I can't live knowing

that you're not mine.

Will you go

to the prom with me?

Of course I will, silly.

I'm sorry too.

Let's not fight anymore.

[Bell Rings]

What's up, Dingle? Nice zit.

See you, Johnny.

- What are you lookin' at, dirt bag?

- Nothing.

Well, that blew ropy goat

chunks now, didn't it?

It's not over.

[Johnny Narrating] That's when I came up

with the plan that would change my life forever.

And it could have worked too.

It was swashbuckling,

romantic, daring.

- All right, let me see it. Let me see it.

- This is absurd.

[Johnny Narrating]

Unfortunately, it depended on Eddie.

All right, give me all your money.

That was it?

That was menacing?

All right, news flash.

This just in, Johnny.

Missy is going to the prom

with Buck. You got it?

Look, you pretend to k*ll her,

I save her life...

she thinks I'm a hero, ditches Buck

and goes to the prom with me.

How sweet is that?

This is desperate

and this is sick.

I think you should

get some therapy. I do.

[Johnny Narrating] With the steadfast

support of my best friend...

and the cool cunning

of a master tactician...

I swung into action.

♪♪ [Radio]

- Hi, Johnny.

- Hey, there.

[Cash Register Beeping]

- That it?

- Um...

- Anything else?

- Yeah, um, these.

Freeze! Don't move!

Give me your mon...

[Toy g*n Firing]

Give me your money.

Come on, come on...

[Car Approaching]

What the hell do you

think you're doing?

Uh, nothing.

- Are you gonna rob this store?

- Uh, yes, yes, I was.

But you can rob it if you want.

I can come back tomorrow.

- I can always come back tomorrow.

- Give me your mask.

Okay, we have one flyswatter,

one pair of red, fuzzy dice...

yellow army tank.

Anything else? Chinese checkers,

a birdhouse, perhaps?

All right, give me all your money,

or I'll blow your goddamm brains out!

- What?

Who the hell do you

think you are, buddy?

- Excuse me, do you have a g*n?

- No.

- Then shut up!

Damn right, "let's go."

Let's go!

Oh, Johnny, are you lost?

Are you alone?

Ashes to ashes,

dust to dust.

What once was,

is no longer. Amen.

- Amen.

- Amen.

Be nice to God.

I made you bologna and mustard

Oh, hi there.

I'm Murray.

- Johnny Dingle.

Nice to meet you,

Johnny Dingle.

Oh, look at you.

You're a mess.

Just crawled out

of the grave, did you?

- I guess so.

- Isn't that something.

Been a long time since anybody

came back from the dead.

I think the last time

was Thanksgiving, 15 years ago.

Hey, wait a minute. Did you say

come back from the dead?

Yes. You're now one

of the undead, Johnny Dingle.

Doomed to spend the rest of your days

shunned by the human race.

- Whoa, where you going?

- Home.

No, you're not. That's what I'm trying

to tell you, Johnny Dingle.

You can't ever leave

the cemetery again.

I'm not gonna live in the cemetery

the rest of my life.

I got a date Friday night.

I'm very sorry. You'll

have to break the date.

You're crazy. I'm going to the prom

with Missy McCloud.

I'm sure she's very nice,

but you still can't leave.

Only death awaits you

among the living.

- I am among the living.

- You're undead.

Hey, look, just because

I crawled out of a grave...

doesn't mean

I'm a friggin' zombie.

It does if you were dead

before you went into the grave.

Okay, look, I admit

maybe I got shot...

- but I didn't die.

- You're very unreasonable.

Excuse me. Where do you

think you're going?

How could I be dead?

I've never felt better in my life.

- [Chuckles]

- I'm in love.

- I feel great.

- No, J-Johnny!

- If you leave, you'll...

- I'll what?

You'll find out.

- Hi, Mom.

- Mmm.

- Hi, Dad.

- Hi, Johnny.

[Parents Screaming]

[Dog Barking]

You know, son, your mother and I

and the ambulance driver...

and the coroner

and the embalmer...

were all pretty much convinced

that you were dead.

I got better.

Huh.

Well, welcome home, son.

- Thanks.

- Are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?

Gee, there's a lot of food

left over from the funeral.

[Yawning]

[Yawning]

Oh, my god.

I am dead.

[Alarm Clock Ringing, Groans]

Johnny, breakfast is ready.

- [Dog Barking]

- [Johnny] Coming, Mom.

No thanks, Mom.

- Hmm, you look a little pale this morning, son.

- I'm dead, Dad.

How about some eggs?

- Not hungry.

- Not hungry, he says. Did you hear him?

- Have you got a temperature?

- Of course not.

I just told you,

I'm dead.

Well, I'm calling Emille Bronson.

I am not going to Dr. Bronson.

I'm not that desperate.

h*, h*, h*, h*! I guess I know one young

man who's not going to school today.

Hello, Dr. Bronson.

This is Marge Dingle.

Dr. Bronson, the reason I called

is our son, Johnny...

died the other day and I was wondering

if you could take a look at him.

Would you like

to talk to him?

Sure.

Johnny?

- Eddie Conners?

- Yeah, I'm here.

Johnny Dingle? Oh.

[Students Gasping]

Hi, buddy. Hey!

Sorry I'm late, Mrs. Cooper.

You wouldn't believe the trouble I had getting here.

I would believe it,

and I'm not impressed.

- You get one demerit.

- But...

Just because you're dead does not mean that you

can come waltzing in here when you like.

- John Craig?

- Present.

- Linda Given.

- Here.

[Bell Ringing]

- [Girl] Hi.

- Hi.

- Hey, Missy, wait a minute.

- Johnny, hi.

Uh, listen, you know,

I think it's really great...

that you're back from the dead

and all, but I've got gym.

- But wait a minute.

- [Girl] Is that him? - Yeah!

[Eddie] Look,

maybe she's uncomfortable...

because, you know,

you are recently deceased.

- Eddie, come on, be serious.

- I am serious, Johnny.

I'm just dead. It's not like

I'm an as*h*le or anything.

I didn't say

you were an as*h*le.

It's just that some people might consider

being dead somewhat... unfashionable.

- That's really shallow of you, Eddie.

- Shut up and eat your food.

God! I can't eat this.

It's disgusting.

You never thought it was

disgusting before.

This is totally different. They must

have done something weird to it.

If you don't want it, I'll eat it.

- [Screams]

- What?

What do you mean, "What?" You just

tried to take a bite out of my arm!

Oh, I'm sorry, Eddie.

It was just gonna be a little bite.

Johnny, you shouldn't

be taking any bites.

- Here, let me...

- No, no, no!

You just get the hell

away from my arm.

See you.

- Missy, hey.

- [Groans]

I just want to know what time

I should pick you up for the prom.

Um, you shouldn't.

- What do you mean?

- I have to go.

Wait a minute. Are you mad 'cause

I tried to take a bite out of Eddie?

- Oh, no, of course not.

- Then what's wrong?

You're not breaking

our date, are you?

- I came back from the dead for this date.

- Well, gee, Johnny...

it's just, I really didn't

expect you to make it.

Well, I wouldn't have asked

if I couldn't make it.

I'm sorry.

[Guy] Hey, look,

it's that dead kid.

It's because I'm dead, isn't it?

- That's why you won't go out with me.

- Don't insult me.

You're afraid of what

people might say, aren't you?

Behind your back, everybody whispering,

"There goes Missy with the dead kid."

Look, that has nothing

to do with it, okay?

I only said I would go to the prom

with you because you were dying.

- I'm Buck's girlfriend.

- All right then, forget the prom for now.

- How about a movie? Johnny.

- Hi there.

- Buck, hi.

- Hi.

Dead little snot.

You think you can hang out with us

decent living folks like you're still alive?

Why is everyone making such a big deal

about this? I've only been dead one day.

We're watching you, dead boy.

We don't like your kind.

- You're stinkin' up the whole school.

- Chuck!

What are people gonna say? My girlfriend

hanging outwith a decaying kid.

I don't really care what people think

and he's actually a nice guy...

- so cut it out.

- Let's go.

I better not ever catch you

with that dead kid again.

I got a reputation.

Eight o'clock.

[Johnny Narrating]

This was it.

This was the beginning

of a dream come true.

I picked her up early.

I had all the right moves.

I was like Tom Cruise,

only dead.

The stage was set for the most

romantic evening in history.

- [Movie Narrator] ...womb of hell itself.

- [Groaning]

Eternally seeking the flesh

of the living.

Bloodthirsty zombies

howling for your flesh.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Excuse me.

Thanks.

- What are these?

- Ju Jubes.

Really? Are they good?

I've never had one.

Never?

You've never had a Ju Jube?

- Say, isn't that Buck's girl?

- It sure is.

- What's she doing here with the dead kid?

- I don't know, man.

They're good, right?

But what's the problem?

- They're stuck in my teeth.

- Right, right.

- So what you do is take a drink of your soda.

- Why?

Just take a drink. Trust me.

There's something wonderful happening

in your mouth now, right?

[Giggles]

I can't believe that you came up

with a whole system for this.

[Zombies Howling, Soda Spills]

- Oh, god, I'm sorry. Let me, um...

- No, it's okay.

Bloodthirsty zombies

at the foot of your bed...

howling for your flesh.

Zombies, like the one right there!

You know, it's terrible the way those

zombie movies twist the truth like that.

There's a lot of prejudice

against the undead.

Oh, I know you're already

going with Buck to the prom...

- but I was thinking that maybe...

- [Ripping]

What was that?

Your ear.

What?

- Your ear fell off.

- Oh, sh*t.

Is that you, sweetheart?

Uh, yes, Dad!

Here, take your ear.

Oh, sh*t.

But...

[Johnny Narrating] I heard someone

my age is supposed to be comfortable...

with the way their body changes,

but given the circumstances...

this was too much.

- [Doorbell Buzzes]

- Dr. Bronson?

- [Buzzes Again]

- Dr. Bronson?

- Yes?

- I'm dead.

[Sighs]

Okay, well, you're dead...

which is unusual because we don't normally

see this much activity in a dead person.

- Let's look at your symptoms.

- I'm decaying.

Oh, good.

Symptom number one: decay.

All right.

Is that your ear, then?

It fell off about 20 minutes ago.

May I see it?

It's still in good shape.

It's just not on my head.

Hello? Hello?

I'm just teasing.

- May I keep it?

- No way!

Well, I need skin samples

so I can run some tests.

Well... here.

- [Skin Ripping]

- Well, that's very disgusting, but I guess that'll do fine.

Isn't there, um, some kind of medicine

I could take while you look at that?

- A shot or something?

- To avoid decaying?

- Yes!

- No.

Everything that is dead

eventually decays.

Oh, my god.

Wait, wait.

I do think maybe I...

- Aha!

- "Aha" what?

I think I can help you

with that ear.

- You want me to glue it on?

- Well, it's either that or the staple g*n.

Okay, fine.

This takes care of my ear.

What should I do

about the rest of me?

You really want to know what

I'd do in your situation?

[Johnny Narrating] That's when

he sent me to Maggie Benson.

The doctor said that

at the rate I was decaying...

I'd be dead, really dead,

by tomorrow.

- So Maggie was my only choice.

- [Knocking]

Local legend had it that her husband came

back from the dead 15 years ago, just like me.

So if anyone could help me with my

decaying thing, she'd be the one.

Hello?

Anybody here?

[Screams]

[Maggie]

Oh, my dear boy.

You're a zombie.

So it ripped right off

in her mouth, did it?

Yes, ma'am.

Right off.

[Laughing] That must have been

so embarrassing.

You have no idea.

She must be quite a gal.

She is.

But I don't know if she'll even

see me after what happened.

Have a little faith.

Things aren't so bad.

No, they're pretty bad.

I just found out I'm gonna be

really dead by tomorrow.

I was told you knew how to

stop that from happening.

Oh, Johnny, I...

I haven't talked about zombies

for a long, long time.

I need to live long enough to go to the

prom tomorrow night. I'll do anything.

- Oh, no, don't be so quick to...

- Anything.

Oh, my dear boy,

you don't understand.

There is something you can do...

but it is a terrible thing.

Tell me.

[Sighing]

Flesh of the living.

The more you eat,

the more time you have.

Are you crazy?

There's nothing else

you can do.

There's got to be.

Look, I almost took a bite out of my friend

Eddie and it was such the wrong thing to do.

He's very mad.

- A bite will give you about 20 minutes.

- Twenty minutes?

- I need a whole day.

- Then you'll have to eat a little more.

- How much more?

- Oh, my goodness, it's hard to say.

An arm, a leg,

a stomach, a foot.

It's not an exact science,

you know.

What kind of friggin' nut are you,

tellin' me to go out and eat people?

I'm not telling you

to eat people.

I'm saying eating the flesh of the living is...

buying you a little more time...

but it's an awful price to pay.

Well, it doesn't matter because

I'm not eating anybody!

Well, then you'll be

dead by tomorrow.

- How the hell do you know?

- John Dingle, I know.

Well, I'm gonna find a way.

[Liquid Boiling]

[Doctor Bronson]

I have acquired a skin sample...

from Johnny Dingle,

17 and a zombie.

In order to prevent him

from completely decaying...

I must use his flesh

to create a serum...

that will actually reverse the natural

process of decay we all suffer...

as we grow older.

It stands to reason that his zombie

flesh should contain within it...

the genetic code for the reanimation

of dead tissue.

- [expl*si*n]

- Ergo, life after death.

[Knocking]

[Knocking]

Hi, Johnny.

Hi. What are you doing here?

Oh, I just came by

to see how you were.

How's your ear?

Fine. Good as new.

Let me see.

Wow! You know, you can hardly

even tell it ripped off your head.

You think so? I was feeling

a little insecure about it.

[Sighs]

You know, Johnny...

you're a really

good-looking guy.

- You think so?

- Absolutely.

A little style in your...

- Oh, sh*t.

- What?

[Nervous Laugh]

Sorry.

Oh, that's all right.

It's not your fault.

Here, let me see if I can just...

You smell really nice.

- Thanks.

- [Sneezes]

Um, my...

I'll get it.

Got it.

Be sure you get it on straight.

Oh, it's on straight.

There. Much better.

Listen, Johnny,

it's getting kind of late.

I should probably be going so you can

lay down and let that nose harden.

No, no, wait, wait, wait.

Don't leave, don't leave.

- I want to talk to you...

- Let go!

Johnny, I am not even gonna look.

Just get this thing off of me.

- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

- I'll see you tomorrow.

No, wait! Everything's fine.

Don't leave. Minor setback.

Johnny, look at you!

I'm fine. Nothing else

is gonna fall off.

- [Gasps]

- [Screams]

Thank you, God.

Thank you, God.

[Mother] Shake a leg,

Johnny! Breakfast!

- [Dog Barking]

- Mom, I told you I can't eat that stuff anymore.

There's got to be

someone I can eat.

[Stomach Growling]

[Stomach Growling]

- Back off, dead boy.

- Sorry.

- Hi, Johnny.

- Oh, hi.

[Missy] Do you remember last night

when we were in the car...

- and your ear... you know, it...

- Fell off?

Right. Well, that got me to wondering.

What if your other

ear were to fall off?

Uh-huh.

Well, then, what if other stuff

started falling off.

- I don't know, like your arms or something.

- Yeah.

Well, then if stuff

just kept falling off...

- pretty soon...

- I'd just be a little pile of stuff.

Right.

So what I was wondering is if something

like that might actually happen?

If it did would you

feel different towards me?

Is that what's gonna

happen to you, Johnny?

It's...

It's a definite possibility.

Oh, god.

You are so different from any

other guy I have ever known.

Buck would k*ll me if he found out

I was going outwith you.

You're decaying and...

Still, god, I wish

you weren't dead.

Me too.

You know, I've never kissed

a dead guy before you, Johnny.

- Got you!

- Geez!

Damn it! Holy...

Come here, you stinkin'

dead ya-hoo toucher!

- Buck, stop him.

- [Chuck] Come here!

Hey, come on.

Chuck, you don't understand.

Come on, Chuck, let's sit down

and just hash this thing out.

I'm gonna k*ll you, dead boy!

- [Chuck] Come here!

- Maybe we should, uh...

Come here, you stinkin'

dead ya-hoo toucher!

Chuck, look.

Chuck.

Chuck!

Chuck, let's um...

Chuck.

Chuck.

- Chuck, let's discuss this.

- Okay.

[Laughing]

- Uh-oh.

- Huh?

Chuck?

You okay?

[Stomach Growls]

I am really, truly sorry

about this, Chuck.

There's just no other way.

Oh! Oh, no!

Oh, hi, Eddie.

You know, colleges look

at this sort of thing!

- Oh.

- Johnny?

Oh, great.

Oh, my god!

How could you?

You ate Chuck!

Not all of him.

- [Siren Wailing] - Hello, this is Brenda

Bodine and we're coming to you live...

from Fairview High School where we just

received word that some sort of tragic...

- Excuse me. Sheriff McCloud.

- I'm gonna have to ask you all...

We just received word that some sort of tragedy

has happened in the high school today.

- Uh, no, nothing unusual.

- I was referring to the slaughter.

- Right. Well, there was that.

- Sheriff...

Earlier today one of the students

got badly k*lled.

We've heard reports that the m*rder*r

might have been 17-year-old Johnny Dingle.

I'm going to make

an official statement here.

Johnny Dingle is dead. Okay?

Yes, but then this wouldn't

be the first time...

that someone has come back

from the dead in Fairview...

to wreak havoc

on an innocent victim.

What is a zombie and how can you tell if

there's one living in your neighborhood?

- [Intercom Buzzes]

- Ooh!

- [Woman] Emille?

- What is it?

- You have a patient.

- I'm busy.

It's Chuck Bronski.

He was eaten in school today.

All right, all right,

I'll have a look at him.

But while I'm doing that, I want you

to go out and find me a live chicken.

- A chicken?

- Just do it!

All right.

Hello, Chuck. My name is Doctor Bronson.

How are we doing today?

I see.

Chuck, you've suffered

a lot of bleeding...

and there's an ax in your head...

and it appears that someone

has eaten your stomach.

Pulse is a little lower than I'd like.

Let's just take a look

at your retinal response.

Oh, hi. You must be

Big Chuck Bronski.

Hello.

[Big Chuck]

Oh, my god!

[Doctor Bronson] I have some

bad news. Your boy is very sick.

He's lost a massive

amount of blood...

and his pulse and retinal

response are poor...

and, as you can see, there's

an ax sticking out of his head.

- He's not sick, you idiot, he's dead!

- Oh, everybody's a doctor!

You think maybe I could

make the diagnosis?

- [Groaning]

- It's like somebody ate him!

What kind of a monster would do that

to another human being?

- Mom!

- [Dog Barks]

- Here.

- I have a big problem.

- John, you have a visitor.

- Oh, hey, Eddie.

Look, about today, that wasn't

entirely my fault.

Oh, it's not just today.

It's yesterday too.

- What happened yesterday?

- You tried to eat my arm, pal!

Oh, I think you owe

someone an apology.

I'm sorry.

I'm really, really sorry.

Just... Just don't try

to eat me anymore, all right?

- I promise.

- Still buds?

- Huh?

- Yeah, still buds.

Ah, that's what I like to hear.

Hi, honey.

Hi, sweetie.

Oh, son, did you by any chance

m*rder a boy in school today?

- It wasn't m*rder. It was an accident.

- Well, I hope you didn't eat him.

- [Parents Make Kissing Sounds]

- 'Cause lunch is in five minutes...

and I picked up something special

for you at the supermarket.

Oh, boy!

- Hi.

- Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.

- Mmm!

- You picked up a little kid!

[Mother] Am I wrong, or do you

have to eat the flesh of the living?

Mom, I absolutely

can't do that anymore!

Well, there are hungry people all over

the world who'd be thrilled to eat him.

Yeah, my mom says that

to me all the time.

[Johnny] Come on,

just send him home!

- [Doorbell Chimes]

- Uh, I'll get it.

Oh, sh*t!

[Humming]

- Mr. Dingle?

- Yes?

I understand that your boy

is a zombie.

- Mm-hmm, yes, that's right.

- Well, he k*lled and ate my boy today...

so me and some of the other guys

decided to come over and talk to him.

Uh, hold on. Honey!

- There's some people here who want to talk to Johnny.

- Invite them in!

Uh, I don't want them

to think ill of us.

Well, uh, oh!

Honey, this is the father...

of the boy that Johnny

m*rder*d in school today.

I know how difficult

it is to lose a son.

We lost Johnny just

a couple of days ago.

Yes, ma'am.

I'm still reeling.

So is there someway

we could see the boy?

Sure. I think he's hiding

in the closet. Johnny!

Come on out, sweetie!

Are they gone?

Whoa! Hey, quit it!

- Oh, wow.

- Will you cut it out?

- Ooh, wicked, awesome.

- [Father] Uh, fellas...

Johnny's already dead, you see...

so, um, you're gonna have

a hard time k*lling him.

- Hi, Daddy.

- Oh, hi, little Chuck.

- Little Chuck?

- This is little Chuck?

- What are you doing with my one remaining son?

- Nice going, Ma.

Daddy, that dead-man

tried to eat me.

- Stop it!

- That won't work, you idiots!

- But this will.

- [Mother] Excuse me.

- You wouldn't sh**t me.

- I might.

- Jesus!

- Now get out of my house...

or I'll clip your manhood.

All right, Ma!

[Big Chuck] Come on, let's get out

of here. Let's go, little Chuck.

- All right, Daddy.

- We'll be back.

[Johnny Narrating]

It was time to stop running.

Time to summon up the courage that

had eluded me for 12 straight years.

Time to complete

my life's mission.

[Football Bangs On Floor]

It was still there.

Waiting patiently for this moment.

Gathering a little dust, sure...

but otherwise... untouched.

I had the confidence.

I had the gift.

This time

I was definitely ready.

[Cars Driving By]

[Brandi] I was actually not looking

forward to going to the prom.

And then my mom found this place where they

dye your shoes in the exact same shade...

as your fabric... and they're

also dyeing my purse.

Can I tell you... I am so relieved that

you are going to the prom with Buck.

I mean... I heard this really nasty rumor

that you might be going with that dead kid.

Oh... no. We just went

to the movies together.

He died for me. I figured it was the

least that I could do. N-No big deal.

♪ If I was true you'd be a lie ♪

Hi.

- Johnny, please, just leave.

- No, you have to listen to me.

How can you expect me to listen to you

after what you did to Chuck?

- I wanna talk to you about that.

- There is nothing you can say to make things better...

because you ate someone,

do you understand that?

Wait a minute! Are you afraid I might

eat you? Is that the problem?

Are you kidding me?

Will you just leave me alone!

You may not know this, Missy,

but I ate Chuck for you.

God, my boyfriend

won't even pump gas for me.

What?

Oh, geez, Miss,

I didn't wanna eat him...

but it was the only way I could live

long enough to go to the prom with you.

You ate someone just to go

to the prom with me?

I died for you! I came back

from the dead for you.

- I love you.

- [Girls Sighing]

Come on, let's go.

- I don't understand, Johnny.

- What?

How... you can love me so much?

How you can do all these things for me?

By god, if it ain't the zombie out

with a livin' woman.

- He's mighty proud.

- Go get Chuck.

Look, Miss...

other people might want you

because you're pretty and popular...

and they wanna

be seen with you.

I want you

because I love you.

- And I always have.

- [Woman] It's not natural.

- What's this?

- Open it.

I've been tryin' to give you

this since the first grade.

[Gasps]

Oh.

You are the kindest, smartest,

most beautiful girl I've ever known.

And, uh...

And I would die happy...

if you would dance just one dance

with me at the prom.

I would love to go

to the prom with you.

This mornin' he eats your boy and now

he's out there kissin' on the McCloud girl.

[Footsteps Approaching]

- Hey, what are you doing?

- Shut up, you little zombie sl*t!

- I am not a sl*t.

- Leave her alone.

- She's a good girl.

- Good girls don't hang around with dead boys.

- tr*mp!

- Zombie lover.

- wh*re of the undead.

- [Buck] Enough!

It's not her fault.

She was taken in

by his wily decaying ways.

- That's not true, Buck.

- You don't even know what you're saying.

I'll k*ll him.

I swear I'll k*ll him.

- Daddy.

- What the hell is goin' on here?

Johnny Dingle's

what's goin' on.

Johnny Dingle is dead. Right?

Yes, sir.

He ate my son and he's takin'

your daughter to the prom.

So I'd say that's pretty

damned active for a dead guy.

I demand a zombie burning!

I want vengeance for my son.

Yeah, you're damn right!

Missy, Johnny,

let's get in the car.

- [Crowd Chattering]

- [Man] Something's gotta be done.

[Big Chuck] You got until sundown,

Sheriff, to banish that abomination.

After that...

he's ours.

- Why, hello, Sheriff.

- Well...

to what do we owe

the pleasure of your visit?

I was hoping to have a word

with you about Johnny.

I think maybe it's time for the Dingles

and the McClouds to have a little chat.

- Well, this just looks wonderful, ma'am.

John, honey, I wonder, could you get us

some butter for the croissants?

- Sure, Mom.

- Thank you, dear.

Excuse me.

- What the hell is this?

- A body.

I know it's a body.

- Who put it here?

- I did.

- You did?

- I thought you might like a snack.

A snack? What are we,

the Manson family now?

Where did you get this body?

- Found it.

- You found it?

I was at the mortuary. They're

practically giving them away.

Mom, they don't give bodies

away... at the mortuary.

- I sure like beans.

- [Sheriff McCloud Laughs]

- Everything okay, then?

- Right as rain.

Mm-hmm. Then let's get right to it,

Johnny. I know you k*lled Chuck Bronski.

He didn't k*ll him, Daddy,

he just ate him.

[Sheriff McCloud] That's enough, young lady.

I'll have no more smart talk out of you!

Daddy, what about those guys at the

Donner Pass who ate their friends?

Nobody got mad at them.

- Would you excuse me for a moment, Sheriff?

- Of course.

You know what Big Chuck Bronski and the

townspeople would like to do to your son?

They'd like to break out some torches

and have themselves a zombie barbecue.

- What do you want me to do?

- I'll make you a deal.

- You leave town right now,

- [Clothes Ripping]

quietly, never show

your face around here again...

and I will keep the townspeople

off you until you get away.

- This sounds like a good deal.

- [Johnny] Okay, but only...

if I can escort

Missy to the prom first.

You are not taking my daughter to the

prom, you stupid dead son-of-a-b*tch!

- I am going with him, Daddy.

- You are not going, and that is final!

You are being so unfair. What do you have

against Johnny besides the fact that he's dead?

- You need another reason?

- What are you so afraid of?

That you'll eat her,

for one thing.

Oh, that's crazy!

I would never eat Missy!

- He didn't eat us.

- He didn't eat the dog.

See?

Look, you little tough guy...

you get outta town now

or I will personally k*ll you again.

Is there anyone in my family

- What? What?

- [Crowd Shouting]

Oh, dear. Oh.

[Shouting]

Well, I warned you.

You wouldn't listen.

- [Shouting]

- Hurry.

- [Shouting]

- We're closed.

- [Crowd Continues Shouting]

- [Murray] Run, Johnny, run!

Whoa!

[Panting]

Oh! [Pants] Huh?

Now, I've got you, Johnny Dingle.

It's barbecue time.

- Light up the zombie.

- Stop!

- You leave him alone!

- Get up, little girl.

- Get off of me!

- Get your hands off her.

Honey...

- let the zombie go and I'll buy you a pretty new dress.

- No, Daddy.

This way, Marge.

This way. Son?

Son, frankly I don't care

who thinks ill of us.

Just...

get the hell away...

- from our son.

- [Person Drawing Sword]

Well, Sheriff...

do something.

Okay.

Light up the zombie.

- No! Daddy!

- [Crowd Shouting]

You can't.

He died for me.

He came back from the dead for me.

He ate someone for me.

Everything that happened to him

happened because he loved me.

[Murray]

Sheriff? Sheriff?

Uh... would you

have died for her?

- Of course.

- Would have come back from the dead for her?

I don't know.

Could you have eaten

someone to be with her?

No.

No.

Could any of you?

- Huh? Huh?

- [Everybody] No.

I rest my case.

Well, he won't die by my hand.

Then he'll die by ours.

Who votes we k*ll 'em?

[Crowd Silent]

Well, I hope somebody eats the whole

damn bunch of you. Fatheads.

If my daughter desires a dance

with this fine young man...

then by God they're gonna dance.

[Crowd Cheering]

[Sirens Wailing]

[Johnny Narrating] So there I was getting

a police escort to the prom with Missy.

It was the best moment

of my entire life.

I was also pretty sure

it was gonna be the last...

but right then,

that didn't matter.

What mattered was I was gonna have the

dance I'd been waiting for since the first grade.

That much I was sure of. But still, nothing could've

prepared me for what was about to happen.

[Man]

Ah, there you are.

- You.

- What? What?

We've been waiting!

- For me?

- Of course for you...

you dumb sloat.

You see anyone else who was supposed

to be here four days ago?

Hey, look, I'm, uh...

I'm really sorry. I-I didn't know

anybody was waiting.

When you die, you are supposed

to come directly here...

where we pass judgment...

and send you to Heaven or Hell.

You are not supposed to climb out of the grave,

muck around on Earth waiting to die...

a second time!

I-I-I didn't plan that,

it just happened.

Sorry about all the yelling.

Here's the situation:

There's been a little mistake.

What kind of mistake?

The fact is...

you weren't actually supposed to die

in the convenience store.

- [Yells] What?

- No, no, just calm down. It's all here.

May 28th, 8:33 p.m.

Robber enters convenience store,

threatens Missy McCloud. She attempts to stop robbery.

Robber turns to sh**t her,

in doing so knocks over a pot of coffee with his elbow.

- Wait a minute!

- Mm-hmm?

He was supposed

to slip on coffee?

Supposed to, but... didn't.

It doesn't happen very often but somewhere

someone screwed up and the result is...

a sad, tragic mistake.

The result is I'm dead!

Whenever we...

make a mistake...

we try to rectify it by giving the person

a second chance on life;

a chance to prove their worth.

That accounts for the existence

of the occasional zombie.

What they do when back...

from the dead determines what

we do with them in the afterlife.

Hey, look. I wanna talk to you about Chuck.

He was practically dead before I ate him.

I'm sorry. It's time

you were on your way.

- On my way to where?

- To where you belong, Johnny Dingle.

To where you belong.

[Pounding Gavel]

Next.

[Wind Howling, Thunderclap]

- Hi, Johnny.

- Hey.

All right, gimme all your money

or I'll blow your damn brains out.

Don't worry.

Everything will be okay.

Let's go!

Let's go!

[c*ck g*n]

Look out!

[Grunting]

- [Missy] Johnny!

- [Johnny Groaning]

- [Glass Cracking]

- [Groans]

Now he knocks

over the coffee.

- Oh, god, Johnny.

- [Pants]

Ever since the first grade I've been

desperately in love with you.

You're the kindest, smartest,

most beautiful girl I've ever known.

And after I'm gone...

I just want you to know that you

meant more to me... than life itself.

I love you, Missy.

You're not shot.

What?

[Jingling Chain]

The b*llet hit this thing

you were wearing.

You tried to sacrifice

your life for me.

You'd have done

the same for me.

Trust me... I know.

And that's it. That's the whole story.

I know it seems pretty preposterous

but it happened just that way.

and I could do it differently...

you know what I'd change:

nothing.

Well, I take that back.

That's not entirely true.
