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
Let me ask you a question, kid. Did you see that movie, ]?
[[Night of the Living Dead]
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.

Confronting the Past: A Dangerous Decision
Allen Hawes
I don't know how you talked me into this, Tommy. Hell, I must be crazy! You know, if the institution ever found out about this, they would haul our butts back in in straitjackets, permanent!
Tommy Jarvis
You didn't have to come, Hawes. This is between me and Jason.
Hawes
I know, I know, I know. But I still don't get the therapy here. All you need to know is Jason's dead, right? Seeing his corpse ain't gonna stop the hallucinations!
Jarvis
Seeing it won't, but destroying it will. Jason belongs in hell... and I'm going to see that he gets there.
