Apt Pupil - A Personal Inquiry About War Experiences
Victor Bowden:
Arthur, I wonder if you'd mind if I asked you a personal question.
Kurt Dussander:
Not at all.
Victor Bowden:
What did you do during the war?
Kurt Dussander:
I was in the reserves, as were most young men, Victor. My poor eyesight kept me out of combat, thank God. No, I spent most of the war in a military hospital washing bed linens and nurses uniforms.

The Return of the Living Dead - Consequences of Recklessness and Poor Decisions
Burt Wilson:
You did what? You opened it? You stupid moron! You idiot! What's the matter with you Frank? Haven't I already told you never to even go near those goddamn tanks?
Frank:
What are we gonna do, Burt?
Burt Wilson:
I'll tell you what I'm going to do. I'm going to be sued by the Darrow Chemical Company. I might even be investigated by the government. I might become very famous. I might even lose my business. I might even go to jail, goddamn it! That's what I'm going to do!

The Return of the Living Dead - Weird Experiences in the Movie Industry
Freddy:
What's the weirdest thing you ever saw in here?
Frank:
Oh, kid, I have seen weird things come and I have seen weird things go. But the weirdest thing I ever saw just had to cap it all.
Freddy:
Oh, yeah? What's that?
Frank: [[Night of the Living Dead]
Let me ask you a question, kid. Did you see that movie, ]?
Freddy:
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the one where the corpses start eating the people, right? Sure. Wh-what about it?
Frank:
Did you know that movie was based on a true case?
Freddy:
Come on, you're shitting me, right?
Frank:
I've never been more serious in my life.
Freddy:
That's not possible. I mean, they showed zombies taking over the world.
Frank:
They changed it all around. What really happened was back in 1969, in Pittsburgh, at the V.A. hospital, there was a chemical spill and all that stuff kinda leaked down into the morgue and it made all the dead bodies kinda jump around as though it was alive.
Freddy:
What chemical?
Frank:
2-4-5 Trioxin, it's called. It was to kinda spray on marijuana or something. And the Darrow Chemical Company was trying to develop it for the Army. And they told the guy who made the movie that if he told the true story, they'd just sue his ass off. So he changed all the facts around.
Freddy:
So what really happened?
Frank:
Well, they closed it all down, see, and the Army shipped all that contaminated dirt and all those dead bodies out. And they kept it a secret.
Freddy:
So how come you know about it?
Frank:
A typical Army fuck up. The Transportation Department got the orders crossed, and they shipped those bodies here instead of to the Darrow Chemical Company.
