Charles McCulloch Quotes in Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (1989)

[after finding the dead bodies of some of the crew]

Julius: Now, I say we regroup and let's go find this motherfucker before he finds us, huh? Are you with me?

Charles McCulloch: Watch your mouth, young man! And you'll do no such thing. I'm in charge here!

Julius: School is out, McCulloch. Okay?

[before finding the dead Julius]

Charles McCulloch: The first order of business is to find Julius.

Irish Cop: Oh, I'm sure he'll just pop up somewhere.

Charles McCulloch: Senior predictions started five minutes ago and Rennie isn't there.

Wayne: Maybe some of us don't want our futures predicted.

Charles McCulloch: In your case, I'm sure that's true.

Charles McCulloch: Facing your fear doesn't always conquer it.

Colleen Van Deusen: We've already thought about that. Nobody could possible see a flare gun in this storm.

Charles McCulloch: There's only one person who needs to see it. I'm gonna find that deck hand.

Colleen Van Deusen: What about the fire?

Charles McCulloch: How do you know there really is one?

Colleen Van Deusen: What are you talking about?

Charles McCulloch: Use some common sense. Setting off a fire alarm causes panic, the same kind of panic caused by suggesting that Jason Voorhees is alive and aboard this ship. Enough is enough.

Charles McCulloch: You are in very big trouble, young lady... And *you*, you can forget about getting into any film school!

Charles McCulloch: Walking corpses are not real.

Julius: Oh, yeah? Yeah, well, these dead bodies are sure enough real, all right.

Deck Hand: You're all gonna die. You're the last ones. He's come back for you.

Charles McCulloch: What are you talking about?

Deck Hand: Jason Voorhees.

Charles McCulloch: You're insane. Jason Voorhees has been dead for years.

Deck Hand: He came up the river and he's gotten on board. He walks this ship here and now.

Charles McCulloch: Yeah, a killer walks this ship all right, and it's certainly none of us!

[pulls out a knife]

Deck Hand: You're the one who's insane.

Colleen Van Deusen: Hello, Charles.

Charles McCulloch: Colleen. You know, this cruise was your idea, so at the very least you can show up on time.

Colleen Van Deusen: Has everyone checked in?

Charles McCulloch: No. Jim Miller and Suzi Donaldson never showed up, and I'm more than a little concerned.

Colleen Van Deusen: Well, don't be. They probably decided to explore each other rather than New York.

Charles McCulloch: [disgusted] Oh, that's nice.

Charles McCulloch: You know, long lady, you've been coming out here every summer for the last three years and you still haven't learned how to swim.

Young Rennie: I'll take some lessons this time. I promise.

Charles McCulloch: Now, that's what you said last year. I think the time has come for your first swimming lesson. You don't wanna end up drowning like that Voorhees boy, do you? He never learned how to swim, either. And he's still at the bottom of this lake.

Young Rennie: He is not.

Charles McCulloch: Yes, indeed, he is. And he's ready to pull down anybody who falls in and can't swim.

Young Rennie: You're telling a lie.

Charles McCulloch: Am I? Let's find out.

[pushes her into the water]

Charles McCulloch: Better swim, Rennie, before Jason pulls you down.
