Wacko

- Death to all teenagers who fuck.

This is me 13 years ago.

Hi, my name is Mary.

This is my big sister Pam.

She's getting ready for the Halloween Pumpkin Prom.

- Damn it daddy, what are you doing?

Nothing dear.

I was just mowing the lawn.

- Sure daddy, that's what you always say.

Well, here we are.

Guy, you're such an adult.

When my mother told me I'd have to be

taking care of my sister and her friends,

I thought I'd have to miss the Halloween Pumpkin Prom.

Oh not on your life.

They won't be any trouble at all.

Now Mary, you're in charge.

And I want you to make sure that

Bambi, Rosie, and Johnny don't get into any trouble.

Okay.

Have a good time!

- Halloween has always been a special

time of the year for me.

You may think I'm crazy,

but there really is a pumpkin headed lawnmower killer.

And he really did chop up my big sister Pam

with a power lawnmower.

I still have nightmares.

It all happened 13 years ago today.

Damn it daddy, what are you doing?

- Nothing darling, just, mowing the lawn.

- Sure daddy, that's what you always say.

I don't have time for breakfast.

I've got a hysterectomy at nine.

Has anyone seen my scalpel?

Damien sweetheart, have you seen daddy's scalpel?

Damien.

This one?

No, not that one.

Where did I put that?

Dad, don't forget.

You and mom promised to chaperone

the Halloween Pumpkin Prom tonight.

Of course I'll be there.

How could I forget my little girls

Halloween Pumpkin Prom?

Where is the scalpel?

Will this do dear?

What would I do without you?

Oh.

I don't wanna upset you,

but if anything happens,

I just want you to know I love you.

Oh!

And I love you too!

So long pops!

- Oh your father's been under a terrible strain lately.

I think it's beginning to show.

Yeah.

He's acting like he just killed somebody.

Mary!

Your father is a doctor!

He kills people every day!

Yeah!

Murder?

Yeah.

Nurse?

Yeah, where?

Oh, yeah.

Bloody?

Yeah.

Arm severed.

Yeah, actual pieces.

Yeah, yeah, I get the picture.

No, no it's not a pretty one.

I'll be right there, yeah.

Gun.

Monkey.

Alright, who is she?

- One of our night shift people, a nurse.

What was she doing out here?

She worked here.

The hospital.

- Detective, there's something you should know.

- One of your crazies escaped last night.

How did you know that?

- Well it's obvious, look over here.

Any damn fool can see that.

Look it here!

There's a rope hanging out of the window!

Dust.

- One of the other nurses heard her say,

"I think I'll take a shortcut

"through the woods tonight."

Typical nurse move.

No human could have done this.

Must be the work of a wild animal.

Maybe a werewolf.

Or maybe the Lawnmower Killer.

Go ahead kid laugh,

but you're too young to remember those ghastly, grizzly,

ghoulish, god awful murder in this states history!

I was four when it happened.

I wouldn't sleep until the murderer was brought to justice.

- You mean you haven't slept in 13 years?

- I'm 31 years old doc, you tell me.

No forget it.

I wanna know about this crazy who escaped.

Who was he?

We don't know.

Rackets were burning a fire.

Is he dangerous?

- 13 years he's been locked in his room

watching TV talk shows.

The only people he knows are Moreau,

and Mike, and Phil, and Dina and Johnny.

Answer your question?

Poor bastard.

We found this in his room.

It's a calendar.

Good.

And today's date circled.

In blood.

He's back.

After 13 years he's back

and I'm gonna nail him this time.

What?

No, who.

I don't know, I'm asking you.

What?

Who?

Who what?

I don't understand.

Forget it!

All I know is today is October the 31st.

31 backwards is 13.

It's Friday, it's Halloween.

It's the 13th anniversary of the Lawnmower Killings.

There's a crazy loose.

It's prom night.

I'm gonna need coffee.

Hi Mary.

Hi Norman.

How are you this morning?

- I'm fine, how are you this morning?

Well, I am so excited about,

well, about--

- Making love for the first time tonight?

Right.

Oh I know Norman.

I can't think of anyone in the world

I'd rather lose my virginity to.

Yeah.

I know what you mean.

Norman!

Mary.

Stop that right now!

Mary, I can't help it

if I sound like a lawnmower

every time I get excited.

Can you stop that!

I'm okay, it's okay.

It's okay now.

- Oh Norman, how are we ever going to make love?

I'm the only virgin in the whole school.

But every time I hear that lawnmower sound I, I, I...

- I think this might turn the trick.

Oh Norman.

Earplugs.

How thoughtful.

I love you Mary.

I love you too Norman.

Don't you think we should be getting on to school now?

I'd rather get onto you Mary.

Oh.
