(percussion and flute music) (dramatic orchestral music) (birds chirping) (water spraying) >>Some nice raindrops on you. And some sunbeams. (chuckling) Oh, you're going to be lovely. My baby. Oh, aren't you... Yes! Now, who would like
a little music? (grand orchestral music) >>Windows are all fixed. If you want I'll have a word
with those kids next door. >>Oh, no. >>No? I don't know how
you do it, Marwella. This place gets more and
more beautiful every day. >>Well you help some, too, Fred. >>Yea
h, but you make 'em happy. (Marwella laughing) Special deal on repairs
today, Marwella, if you'll have dinner
with me on Friday. >>Well, you drive a
hard bargain, Fred. But, um, I accept your offer. >>About Seven? >>I'll be ready. >>Great. Hey, this one doesn't
look so happy. >>That happened overnight. I don't know what's wrong. >>Ouch!
>>Oooh. >>Are there thorns
on that thing? >>No. That's a new plant that
was just sent to me from Kalakai, that's a
newly formed volcanic island just south of Mic
ronesia. And none of the
species have thorns. Oh, that looks terrible! You should see a
doctor right away. >>Nah, just a pin-prick. I'll take care of it when
I get back to the shop. >>Are you sure you're all right? >>Never felt better in my life. I have a date with the prettiest
girl in town. (chuckling) (light orchestral music) (Fred gasping) (dramatic orchestral music) (Fred groaning) Marwella. Marwella! >>Fred? Fred? Fred? (Marwella gasping) Oh, Dear. (siren wailing)
(dramatic orchestral musi
c) (all chattering) >>Is this the septic
shock patient? >>Yeah, here's his blood sample. At first he appeared to
be in anaphylactic shock from an insect bite on
his left index finger. But he didn't respond
to the epinephrine. >>Pulse is 150. We got to get his
heart rate down. >>Where'd you say
that insect bite was? Left hand, index finger. >>My God, that looks like
synergistic gangrene. Is this man diabetic? >>There was no
medical alert on him. >>He's burning up, get some ice. >>How is he, docto
r? >>It's undetermined, but
you can't be in this area. Take this to the lab, please.
>>Okay. >>One of my plants caused this. >>Plant? I've got to talk to
you about that later, you'll have to wait outside. (dramatic music) (door thudding) (man grunting) >>Easy. (Oscar gasping) >>You're gonna' make it, buddy. Told ya I'd get
you here on time. >>Yeah, your drivin'
damn near killed me. >>My partner's been shot
and he's bleeding to death. He needs a God damn doctor
not some pissant RN. I'm sorry, jus
t get
me a doctor, please. >>Security. >>IV, stat. D5LR, wide open, four
units standard blood, type we'll cross match. >>You a doctor? >>Yes, you called
for one, didn't you? >>Yeah, I'm sorry, look- My partner and I were
on a police stakeout, he got caught with a .357 close. >>You take care.
>>Jim, Jim! >>Hey. Everything's going to be fine. Just take it easy, huh? Take it easy. Easy does it. >>100 milligrams Pitressin,
600 milligrams Atracurium. >>What's the bottom line. >>It's hard to
tell at t
his point. We'll know more after X-rays. I can tell you right now,
he's going to need surgery. And I need some information
on your partner. >>Sure. I'll help you any way I can. >>Jim? Call Jeanie for me. >>You just hang
in there, mister. I'll take care of everything,
don't you worry, okay? >>We'll give you some medication
you'll be in surgery soon. >>Okay, doc. (Fred groaning)
(suspenseful music) >>Oh. (nurse sighing) >>Fred? >>What the hell is that? >>Get this to
pathology right away. >>No way
I'm going
to touch that thing. >>Touch it right
now, take it there. And get that man
in to isolation. We're all going to
need examinations, it could be contagious
for all we know. >>So what do you think
that thing is, doctor? >>I don't know, we'll need
some time to examine it. From its appearance I'd say
it was some sort of parasite. But I've never known of any
to cause such rapid infection. >>Dr. Maltin, Dr. Maltin. Delta three, delta three. >>You don't appear
to be in any danger. You can get d
ressed
now, detective Bishop. >>So, who gets to examine you? >>(chuckling) It won't
be a police detective. (all chattering) So, you say you
were in a shootout? Hill Valley seems an
unlikely place for that. >>We were working the
east side of Williamsburg. But they were tipped off, so, two hours and a car
chase later we got caught in a cross-fire here. (sighing) I never would've
known this place was a hospital. >>We try to keep up on all
the modern conveniences here. It's not often that we
get a g
unshot victim at County Memorial, though. They'll be talking about
this day for a long time. >>Is he going to make it? >>He's got our best
surgeons working on him. We may look a little old
fashioned from the outside. But inside we're
pretty up-to-date. >>Well, could've fooled me. >>Used to be an insane asylum. That's ancient history. How'd you like to take
a look at the future? C'mon. Our new laser research lab. (keypad beeping) (door rumbling) We've just installed
the Excimer laser In a couple
of days we'll
have the Nd:YAG operational. We'll be involved in molecular
breakdown experiments, DNA and RN... Oh, great. Come on, I want you to
take a look at this. >>Okay, good. Right on through. And five. Take it up. >>Going up 2.3. >>Take it slow. (laser humming) Going up. Good. Let's go to full capacity. Hey the coordinates
aren't holding. >>What do you mean the
coordinates aren't holding? >>They're not holding. What's happened?
>>Why not? (glass shattering) >>(chuckling) We still have
a fe
w bugs to iron out. (kids laughing) >>I have to check-in
at the desk. >>Okay. >>Dr. Franklin to the OR, Dr. Franklin to the OR. >>Is that a real gun? >>You bet.
>>Can I see it? Not right now, son. >>Are you a private
eye, like Magnum? >>No, I'm a detective,
kinda like Kojak. >>Who? >>Before your time, kid. >>Why are you in the hospital? >>My partners been shot. What are you in for? >>Leukemia. (soft music) >>Are you kids out again? >>Uh-Oh. >>You'd better run. If I catch you out
in the halls aga
in- (soft music) >>A little though
on them, aren't you? >>There's no telling what
they'd get into if I wasn't. Last week I found them
crawling through an air duct. (phone ringing) >>Even that little
guy with Leukemia? >>He's their leader. Bravest kid I ever met. Parents pretty much dumped him
here so we're his family now. >>That's tough on a kid. >>Yeah. If you'll excuse
me, I have to meet with Dr. Glass at the lab. I'll get back to you
later, Detective. >>You think they might
have some informat
ion on Oscar down there? >>Possibly his test results. >>I'm coming with you. (dramatic music) >>You'll be all right. Now just rest,
I'll be back later. >>If you have any news of Fred. >>I'm going to go see him now. >>Marwella! One of the nurses told
me that you were in here. Answer me! >>If you shut your mouth
for a minute, Dede, I will. >>I'll be damned. How are you? >>I've been better. >>Dede. You just came in through
an emergency exit. This is an isolation area, Dede. You are not supposed to
be here. >>Isolation area? I must have missed
the sign. (laughing) >>Marwella has been
exposed to an infection that we're afraid might
be contagious, Dede. >>You think I'm in
here for a facelift? Listen, If Marwella's
in isolation she's going to need company. >>(sighing) Strict rules are
in effect until we are sure that Marwella is not contagious. >>Marwella some doctors
have no imagination. They don't know that
good company heals. >>I will be back. (dramatic music) >>So this one exterior
is rea
lly just a shell, there's actually
something else inside. Incredible. It's totally opaque. >>I don't understand why the
insides don't photograph. Do we have the results
of the blood test yet? >>Yes, I do. (keys clacking) There's a radical increase in
the patient's calcium level. >>Nothing seems to be adding up. >>Judith, what the
hell's going on here? >>We're not exactly sure, Roger. >>Not sure? At this time the hospital
can't afford to be not sure. >>Well there's a differential
diagnosis a mile
long. Anywhere from
infectious bacteria, to viruses, to a parasite. I think we should
alert the LIDC. >>The LIDC? (scoffing) Is that
really necessary? >>The LIDC? >>Lincoln Institute for
Disease Control, in New York. >>Don't you think
we're over-reacting? I mean an old man develops a
high fever from an insect bite. Seems a little drastic
to bring them into it. >>Roger, what you're really saying is you don't want any
negative publicity, right? Not with the new laser
wing opening in a week. >>I r
esent that, Judith. The safety and care of our
patients has and always will be the first concern of our
County Memorial hospital. >>Good, then we'll contact
the institute immediately. Alice, would you gather
all your important data and get it over to the
clinic immediately, please. >>Alright. But I still want this
matter cleaned up as quickly and as
quietly as possible. Who are you? >>James Bishop, Detective,
3rd Precinct, Williamsburg. >>Oh, that's right, they
told me all about you. So this is
the
little sucker, huh? >>Came out of a patient's
mouth 35 minutes ago. >>Incredible. >>Since the X-rays won't
tell us what's inside, I guess we'll have to
find out for ourselves. (suspenseful music) (Roger groaning) (electricity crackling) >>Judith! >>Get something
to cover it with! (suspenseful music) >>What the hell's
coming out of it? >>Looks like an insect. >>What it must have done
to that poor man's system. >>I've never seen an
insect like that before. >>I've got a friend
who's an entomolo
gist. He might know what
that thing is. >>Great.
>>Mr. Levering. They told me you were here. >>What is it, Tony? >>One of the paramedics who
brought in that old man, he's come down with
the same symptoms. (dramatic music) >>I'll see you in my
office in half an hour. >>- He can come but
he doesn't have a car. Tony, could you go pick up
Dr. Jacobs for me immediately? Thanks.
>>Right away. >>Well, everything
is off to the LIDC. >>Great. Good. Alice, do not let that
thing out of your sight. (suspens
eful music) (kids laughing)
(soft music) (kids laughing) >>Uh-oh. >>What are you kids up to? You're not supposed to
be out here, are you? >>No, sir. You won't tell Dr.
Carson, will you? We didn't do anything bad. >>Well, I don't know. You disobeyed orders. I may just have to put
you all under arrest. >>Arrest? Can he do that? >>I don't know, and I don't want to find out. >>Me neither, come on. (soft music) Hey, wait for me, Jimmy. >>Maintenance on 2M, please. Maintenance on 2M. Maintenance. >>An
ything new on Oscar Willett? >>One moment, please. Willett, Oscar. In surgery for a bullet
wound 45 minutes ago. >>Yeah, I know that,
but how's he doing? >>Too early, sorry. If you'd like to take a
seat in the waiting room, I'll give you a call
when I hear something. (door clicking) >>George will you listen
to me for just a minute? >>Sandra, I know, Sandra,
I know what I'm doing. Now every step of your pregnancy has been properly charted out, now is the time. Good afternoon. We're the Bakers,
Ge
orge and Sandra. >>Hello.
>>I phoned earlier. We're going to have a baby. >>Congratulations.
>>Thank you. >>When did the
labor pains start? >>They haven't yet. >>Then why did you come in? >>Ask Mr. Database. >>Database! Using all of the most
recent scientific and medical information
on a subject, I have been able to chart
out all of the significant develops of Sandra's
pregnancy from the day of conception
up until, oh, exactly 18 minutes ago, when
we left for the hospital. The time is now. >>Tha
t's very
admirable, Mr. Baker. But did anyone tell the baby that it's time
for an appearance? >>There's no need for sarcasm. >>I'm sorry. Why don't we let your
Doctor examine Mrs. Baker just to be certain. >>Oh, alright. >>Dr. Mathew Steinberg. >>I'll let him know you're here. >>Honey, you should
be resting, come on. >>George, I'm fine, really. >>No, you should rest. >>I'm fine.
>>You're not fine, >>I'm fine. >>You're in the throes
of having a child. There, now just take it easy. >>Mr. Baker? Dr
. Steinberg will see
your wife in 15 minutes. You can wait in room 415. >>Oh. >>No, you wait here, relax. I'll see if they have all
the necessary equipment for the delivery, alright? Sit still. >>George, this is a hospital. >>Yeah, good, Good. >>Neonatal Symposium, 837 at 1:30. >>Is he always like this? >>Should've seen him
on our honeymoon. (Jim chuckling) (machine beeping)
(tense music) >>Thank you, Doctor. >>Paramedics temperature has
leveled at 102, pulse at 140. >>Not nearly as bad
as poor
old Fred here. His bones are dissolving and flooding his
circulatory system. >>I wish some of
this made sense. >>At least Marwella and the
paramedic are stabilizing. That's something, I guess. (machine beeping)
(Fred groaning) (machine flatlining) >>Damn it! Clear. (blood spraying)
(all gasping) >>Well, Dr. Dede
recommends this. >>(gasping) Dede, do
they know you have that? >>Of course not. But if anyone needed
a shot of this- >>Oh, no, no, no, I don't- >>Here. >>Oh, Dede- >>Here's to a speedy r
ecovery! >>I don't think this'll help. >>Oh. Listen, at our age it
can't hurt, either. (both laughing) (ominous music) (keys clacking) >>(gasping) Oh, Ted. (Ted laughing) >>Oh. Everybody's nerves are on edge tonight.
>>Yeah, yours would be too if you had to
babysit that thing. >>Oh. So this is what the whole
hospital is talking about, eh? Oh, it's adorable. Hey, what do you say we
sneak out for a quick smoke and calm those nerves of yours? >>Oh. I'm can't leave
Jiminy Cricket alone. >>Come on, w
e'll just take five. >>Well, I guess I
could use a break. >>Hey! Stay out of trouble
until we get back, okay. Jiminy?
Come on. (both laughing) (ominous music) >>Fred's dead, isn't he? >>A few minutes ago, I'm sorry. Things have gotten a lot worse
than we originally expected. One of the paramedics
who brought you in, he's come down with it now. >>Do they know what it is yet? >>Unfortunately, no. How do you feel? >>Just the same, I think. >>Your fever is still high. But it's not as high as it
was
when I checked it before. You going to need anything? A sedative or anything? >>No, thank you, Dr.
Glass, I'm all right. >>I'm sorry, Marwella. (Marwella sobbing)
(somber music) >>I thought she'd never leave. >>Poor Fred. (sobbing) >>563, 563. >>I heard smoking was
bad for your health. >>Since I have a
partner in surgery. >>Fred Adams just died. >>The old guy? >>Yep. We have four more patients
with similar symptoms. Some of the staff are
refusing to go near them. (dramatic orchestral music) >>Th
is is the sample
from County Memorial? >>Yes, sir, it is. I've never seen any
strain of bacteria with a configuration like this. It's extraordinarily complex. >>Arthur, I've just seen
the County Memorial sample. You're not going to believe this but four more
patients are stricken, all within 40
minutes of exposure. We need to initiate a class
four there immediately. >>That's impossible. >>Of course it is. You call the health department. We'd better take the
necessary precautions at the point of
origin also. I'll keep you posted. (ominous music) >>Wow, this is great! >>Hey, remember, we've
got to be careful. If anybody finds us in here, especially that cop- >>Don't be such a wimp, Tyrone. Wow, this place looks like fun. >>But we're going
to get into trouble. >>Oh, shut up, Ellen. (ominous music) (Ellen giggling) >>Come here, Ellen. Look in there.
>>I can't see anything. >>See how big it
makes everything? >>Now I do. >>Did you see the wiggly things? >>Ew, gross! (ominous music) (ominous
music) >>Whoa, you guys gotta see this. >>Wow!
>>What do you think it is? >>Some kind of a bug. >>It looks sad in there. >>Maybe it's hungry.
>>Yeah, its got no food. >>I want to feed it.
>>Ah! Uh-oh. >>Now look what
you did, buzz head. >>Me? You were the one
that grabbed at it! >>I'm getting out of here.
>>Me, too. >>You're going to get it now.
>>Wait for me! (ominous music) (door knocking) >>Yes? Hello.
>>Dr. Jacobs? >>Yes. >>Right. Tony Rivers from
County Memorial. >>Good. >>Rachel Carson
sen
t me to get you. >>I'm sorry, I forgot. Come on in, please. >>Okay. >>I just have to
finish one thing and I'll be right with you. Working on a shipment
of caterpillars for the university when
Rachel called. (laughing) Please, come on in,
have a seat, somewhere. Yeah. >>Nice place you got here. >>Thanks very much. Have to keep these little
fellas in a cold place, or they'll climb out of
the box and I'll find them in my cereal. (both laughing) Oh, boy. Running out of room. (crickets chirping) I'm
busy collecting a
whole lot of earth worms for an elementary school. (sighing) Oh, my goodness. I'm sorry, would you
like something to drink? Maybe some fresh
lemonade, perhaps? >>Uh, No, thanks. We really must be going. >>Oh, sure, oh yeah. well, look, why
don't you tell me... I was wondering
where those were. Why don't you tell me
everything you know so far. Rachel said something
about a worm. (siren wailing) What's going on in town tonight? >>I don't know, must be
something big though. >>Yeah
. >>Here. >>Ah, my favorite kind of car! >>Beetle, right?
>>Yeah, uh-huh. It's a pretty color. (both laughing) Guess you'd have
to order something like this far in
advance, wouldn't you? You couldn't just go into a lot and get an orange one, I guess. I wanted to get a blue one once. (ominous music) >>Oh my God, Ted, we've
been gone over 30 minutes. (Ted laughing) I don't remember turning
out these lights. >>Would you stop worrying? If anybody says anything
you were helping me with an emergency c
ase. (both laughing) >>Okay, I'm just going
to lock the door. >>Throw away the key. (ominous music) (both laughing) (wind whooshing) >>George, don't be disappointed, not even doctors can tell
the exact time of delivery. >>I don't understand it, I
couldn't have made an error. (Sandra groaning) Sweetie. >>Oh, George. >>That's it! I forgot to allow for
daylight savings time. >>Cut the crap, George,
and get the doctor. >>Relax, honey, I'll be
right back, stay there! Dr. Steinberg! Dr. Steinberg! >>E
lliot.
>>Hi. >>Thanks for coming. >>Oh, sure. Considering you went
through the trouble of finding a new species for me. >>I wish it could have been
under better circumstances. >>Tony, we need you
to get a cutting of the plant that
infected Mr. Adams, it's at the greenhouse. Be careful, okay? >>I'm halfway there. >>Good. Eliot, it is the weirdest
thing I've ever seen. I just don't understand it. >>Detective Bishop, your
partner's still in surgery. I'm afraid there
are complications. >>How serious
? >>I don't know, sir, that's
all I could find out. >>Shit! >>I've never seen anything
like it in my life. >>Doctor, my
partner's in trouble. Can you help me
find out about him? >>I'll do what I can. Detective Bishop
this is Dr. Jacobs. >>Hi.
>>Hey. >>I have to take Dr.
Jacobs to G-Lab right away, then we'll check into Oscar. Do you want to drop that
off at my office first? >>Oh, yes, please, yeah. >>I owe you one. >>I'll remember that. (ominous music) >>Alice? Alice? It's me, Rochelle. (ominous
music) (Rochelle screaming) (suspenseful music) (Rochelle sobbing) No! >>Oh, my God. Alice? >>It appears your
insect has gone through some sort
of metamorphosis. >>Don't tell me that little
thing made this mess? >>What is this? >>A nucleic acid clarifier,
it's a genetic growth promoter. it stimulates the operant gene, which in turn accelerates
hormone activity. >>Dr. Helmut Kittering's
findings on the DNA factor in accelerated growth uses NAC-5 as the catalyst. >>I think we better
all stop talk
ing and start looking for
that thing right now. (electricity crackling) >>This is not the time
for a power failure. >>The axillary generator
should go on any moment now. >>If the power goes
again this guy's had it. Somebody get a
portable generator! (suspenseful music) >>Now what's going on? (phone ringing) Yeah? I know they're out, yeah, okay. Right away, Doctor. (suspenseful music) >>Wee! (laughing) (Marwella coughing) >>Stand back! Stay back, please. Keep clear of the hoses. Move back behind
the police barriers. I repeat, move back. >>Hey, where do you
think you're going? >>Rivers, security
chief, County Memorial. What's going on here? >>We ordered to spray the
place and then burn it. Health Department seems to think there's some weird,
new bacteria in there. >>Look, I've got an emergency,
I've got to get a plant from out the green house. >>County Memorial? >>Yeah. >>They just put that
under full quarantine. >>That's impossible,
I was just there. >>Maybe so, but from
what I've been
told there's nothing getting
in or out of that place. Or that green house. >>I got to get back. >>Stay behind the barrier. Please stay behind the barrier. >>I'm sorry, Dr. Glass, but we can't expose ourselves
to the infection any longer. It would be suicide. >>I understand, Jackie. I don't like it. But I understand. (dramatic music) >>Dr. Cameron, 6-0. Dr. Cameron, 6-0. (machine beeping) >>Judith. What are you doing? >>We have two more cases
and the staff refuses to go in the isolation ward. >>Y
ou're not going in there. >>Oh, no? Who else is? >>But you mustn't, you
can't, what if you became... Judith, please. >>Roger, what choice
do I have, huh? (suspenseful music) >>Mr. Levering, you've got
to come with me right away. >>What is it now? >>You've got to come, sir. (suspenseful music) >>Incoming copter. (indistinct) Clear the area! >>Move that vehicle. Let's move this unit. Come on, let's hustle. (indistinct) (siren wailing) Come on, deploy. >>Secure the perimeter. Secure the perimeter.
>>Come on, let's hustle. Hustle! Get in to position. >>Platoon in position, sir. (men shouting) >>Roger Levering,
County Memorial. What are you doing here? >>Mr. Levering, Edward Clemmens, Department of Public Health. Please, stay right
where you are, sir. >>What are you doing here? >>Sir, the Lincoln
Institute of Disease Control has alerted us that County
Memorial has been exposed to a highly dangerous and
extremely contagious bacteria unlike anything we've
ever encountered. Until we can find t
he
strain and formulate a plan to combat it, this entire hospital is
under complete quarantine. A class four is in effect. This is our authorization
from the governor. (dramatic music) >>Please, don't panic. Please, don't panic. >>This hospital is under
official quarantine. The entrances are
completely sealed. No one is permitted in or
out until further notice. >>My husband, he's not
going to believe this. He thinks I'm cheating. >>Get your own receiver. >>Come along,
ladies, come along. (electr
icity crackling) >>Ah. Ah. (ominous music) What the hell? My God. Ack. Who's there? Nobody there? (man screams) >>Who's in charge here?
>>Sir. >>Excuse me, I'm Tony
Rivers I'm the head of hospital security. I got to get inside. >>Sorry, nobody goes in or out. >>Look, they're expecting some
vital information from me. >>Well you'll have
to phone it in, pal. >>Tango Squad,
secure the west door. Tango Squad, secure
the west door. >>Please go back immediately. We will be forced to open
fire if you do
n't comply. Stop! Do you hear me? Stop! Fire. I said fire! (guns firing)
(dramatic music) Alright, no one touches him
but the quarantine unit. >>This is insane! >>Hey, we'll have
a full-scale riot if I don't maintain control. (dramatic music) >>I've never seen so many guns. When are they going
to bring in a tank? >>What do you think's going on? >>Something big. >>I want to find out.
>>How? >>C'mon. We're going exploring. (all chattering) Come on. (all shouting)
(dramatic orchestral music) >>Some
things going
on out there, Dede. All those lights and sirens. >>It's Friday night,
it's always like this. Drink up! (dramatic orchestral music) >>All these places make an ideal
environment for it. It could be anywhere. >>If we can get to the
other side of the hospital, we can see what's
going on there. (ominous music)
(electricity crackling) (machine beeping) (woman groaning) >>It's really happening
this time, isn't it dear? >>Yes. >>The sensation must
be extraordinary. >>No, George, it hurts
li
ke hell. (groaning) >>Be right with you, honey. Sweetie, honey! >>Oh. Hurry, the little
bastard's on his way! >>Sweetie! (camera shutter clicking) Good. (ominous music) (electricity crackling) >>At least we know
why the power's out. >>What the hell could have
done something like that? Oh, God. >>This is the same stuff
we found in the lab. >>Shh, cut the light. (ominous music) Holy shit! Get down, get down. >>That's, that's incredible. Never in my wildest dreams- You agreed. >>I didn't agree to n
othin'. >>Don't be crazy, you
can't kill that thing. >>Shut up. >>It's one of a kind! At least let me get
a picture of it. >>Take your goddamn pictures,
you got two minutes. >>Alright. I got to get closer. >>Careful. >>Hey, where are you going?
>>It's okay, it's okay. (camera shutter clicking) >>Oh, my, God. >>Oh my God. It's giving birth. (ominous music) My bag, my bag. The creature is a hermaphrodite, having both male and
female sexual organs. An ingenious method of survival. It's able to prot
ect
the female creature until it's ready. >>Ready for what? >>Reproduction of the species. >>Oh. Great. >>Isn't it? All insects are so superior
to man, in many aspects. Judging from the
size of the abdomen the female creature
should start laying eggs within the hour. >>How many? >>Oh. The only species which even
vaguely resembles this insect is capable of reproducing
five to 600 eggs. >>At one time? >>Amazing, isn't it? >>Shit. We could be dealing with
500 of these things? >>At a minimum. >>Let'
s get out
of here, come on. Come on, will you, damn it. >>Elliot! >>Shit. Elliot! (suspenseful music) What's he doing, he's
going to get us all killed. Damn it. (suspenseful music) (Rachel screaming) >>Oh, my god. (insect roaring) (Rachel screaming) (suspenseful music) (banging on door)
(Rachel whimpering) (Rachel breathing heavily) (suspenseful music) >>Hey. It's okay, c'mon. It moved off
through the shadows. >>How about Elliot? >>I don't know. When I came to I
couldn't see him. Come on, we got
to go find him. (suspenseful music) (steam hissing) Shit, he's gone. Come on, we got to find him. Damn it. >>Oh, my god. Elliot! >>Don't you ever take
off like that again. >>I had to follow it, I had to. It's down there. >>You mean they've gone
into the old tunnels? Damn it. >>Where do they lead to? >>It's the maze of tunnels
and rooms where they used to keep the more dangerous patients locked up. It's been closed for years. >>They won't go far. She's in no condition to move. They'll settle for
the first
dry, warm area they find. >>Let's get the hell out of
here and get some help, come on. >>Please, this is the
most efficient insect I've ever seen in my life. >>Just come with me.
>>This is fascinating. I've got everything here on
tape, I can't believe it. >>I wonder if we'll
find anything down here. >>I bet we're going to
find a big blue monkey. >>What's in there? >>Nothing much. It's pretty dark in there. Think we should go back? >>I have to go to the bathroom. >>Me, too. >>Okay, we'
ll go back. Oh, you guys are
a bunch of wimps. >>Well I'm not afraid.
>>Me neither. >>I am. >>We have been
unable to identify or
control the bacteria. And have put a class
four code in effect. >>What's a class four? >>It's highly classified, used only in extreme
circumstances. Washington feels
there is the potential for a global disaster unless
the infection is contained. Evacuation is out
of the question. One man has already been
shot attempting to leave. We're on our own. >>How long before
tho
se eggs hatch? >>The eggs will be full grown
and reproducing within days. The potential for a fertile
pair of insects could theoretically reach 100
million within a year. We have to kill the female
and destroy the eggs. >>What about the male? >>It's not that simple, insects aren't like
humans or animals, they're 80% liquids and muscles,
they have very few organs. You can cut off a leg, even
destroy the brain and they'll just grow a new one back. Their sense of
smell is so strong they can detect
something miles away. That thing's outer shell
is like armored plating. So conventional weapons
are useless against it. But the fact that the
male protected the female during its metamorphosis indicates that she's
very vulnerable. >>What's the best way to do it? >>An incendiary attack
would be the most practical. >>Do you have any butane
tanks in this hospital? >>This building is
over 100 years old. You start a fire in
here, the whole place could go up in minutes. It's out of the question. >>I d
on't really think
we have a choice. >>When those eggs hatch,
you're going to have a lot of hungry larvae. They're mineral devourers,
the male paralyzes the victim by stinging it. >>Like a spider. >>The female deposits
the eggs in a manner that the hatch larvae can feed on the food until
its metamorphosis is complete. The victim would be
alive for several days. It'd be an extremely
painful death. >>There are some butane
tanks in storage. >>Okay, that's a start. Now I just have to find some way to
lure the male
away from the female. >>It couldn't get
into the morgue. We could lure it in there
then render it unconscious by leaking SL15 into the room. That way we can keep it alive
and study it at the same time. >>God almighty. We got a killer loose,
he wants to study it. >>You don't
understand, detective, it may have the only
available antidote. You kill it and we may
not be able to stop that disease from spreading. >>Is that true? >>With certain infections,
such as rabies, the host or the
carrier is the
only source of the vaccine. Until we know more about
this, anything is possible. We can't take any chances. >>Okay look, we
don't have much time, we've got to move fast. You two approach the
tunnels from the area where we first saw them. I'll make my move from
another direction. What, what other
entrances are there? >>Those tunnels haven't
been used in years. I don't think there's
anyone who knows their way. >>I think I know
someone who might. (suspenseful music) >>(sighing) I've
just been ordered to destroy this
place in two hours if I don't hear from Washington. >>God help them. >>Sure, I can take you
down there, no problem. >>I know that, Joey,
but can you tell us how to get down
there on our own? >>I can't tell you,
I can just show you. >>Joey. Just think, okay? How do you and
your friends do it? I mean, do you have some
kind of special passage way? Some kind of-
>>I don't know. We just do it. But I can show you. >>Sure you can lure
it to the morgue? >>Well, that's
my problem. You just take care
of the female. >>Joey. You sure you can do this? >>Yes, sir, you need my help. >>Okay. >>Now, Joey, you remembered to
take your medicine like you were supposed
to, didn't you? >>Yes ma'am.
>>And you will do exactly what detective Bishop
tells you, right? >>You bet! >>Good boy. >>Since we probably won't
be able to see each other, we'll make our
move in 15 minutes. >>Agreed. >>Let's go, Joey. Lead the way.
>>Yes, sir. (suspenseful music) (both drunken singing) >>Hi,
Dr. Glass, we thought
that you could use some help. >>And have some cheering up. >>You two are a fine pair. The whole hospitals going
nuts and you managed to get yourselves shitfaced. (both laughing) >>Aint it the truth!
>>Yes, yes. >>Go to bed, Marwella, please. >>No, no, I feel fine. You're the one that's
dead tired and needs to get some re,
(hiccupping) rest. Is there something' wrong? >>How come you're
so damn healthy when everybody
else is half dead? >>I don't know. I haven't the foggiest i
dea. (hiccuping) Excuse me. (both laughing) (dramatic music) (Sandra groans) >>There we are, that's it. You know you're doing
wonderfully, honey,
just wonderfully. >>George, I'm not
having any fun. >>No, you're not. But I want to get a
picture of it, alright? We have shots of you having fun. This'll be of you
not having any fun. And it'll be priceless. >>I want this over with! >>That's a good sign,
Mr. Baker, a good sign. >>You could have
fooled me. (groaning) (suspenseful orchestral music) >>Yo
u drank this, didn't you? >>Just about half. Dede likes company. >>Alcohol. It stopped the toxins from
spreading through your body. Come on. (ominous music)
(electricity crackling) >>We gotta go down this ladder. Come on, this way
Detective Bishop. >>The insect will have
an acute sense of smell. Probably know we're coming. You're not wearing
perfume, are you? (insect roaring) (Joey gasping) >>it's okay, Joey, you did good. >>That tunnel leads to a
place with lots of rooms. >>Okay, now, Joey, I
w
ant you to go back. >>But you need my help. >>You're right, I
do need your help. I need you to do
something very important. I need you to go
back to the hospital and keep an eye on Oscar. Can you do that for me? >>Yes, sir. >>Okay then, go on. Go on. (suspenseful music) >>Rachel, you never told me, what was this place years ago? >>State insane asylum. It's built just
after the civil war. Can you imagine? They used to keep most of
the patients locked up here for life. Cages just like that. (suspe
nseful music) >>It's the same stuff. It's gone this way. What's that there? Turn your light off. Come on. It's unbelievable! >>Never seen anything
like this in my life! >>It's unbelievable. It's unbelievable.
>>It's horrible. Elliot, how the hell are we
going to get it out of there? >>I don't know. Just give me a second. >>Elliot, we don't
have that much time. Bishop is going to
be here any moment. >>I know. >>Elliot. >>It's okay. All the eggs are starting
to hatch already. >>Damn it. >>Look, th
ey're
starting to feed. You shouldn't look. >>Oh my god,
they're still alive. Alice!
>>No! Alice! (Rachel shouting) No, Elliot, no! Alice! (Rachel shouting) Elliot! (suspenseful music) In here. Hey, Come on. (suspenseful music) (Rachel breathing heavily) (Rachel screaming)
(suspenseful music) (explosion booming) (insect screeching) (Alice sobbing) (insect roaring) >>It must be Bishop. Come on. (suspenseful music) (insect screeching) (insect roaring) (suspenseful music) >>Damn it, Joey, what
are
you doing here? (suspenseful music) >>I was worried. >>Listen, Joey,
find your friends. Tell them to, tell Director, the first
floor, to get in their rooms and lock the doors, you understand? >>Yes sir!
>>Get going then, hurry! (intense music) >>Please do not attempt
to use the elevator until power is restored. >>Lock your door! Hide, protect yourselves! >>Joey? Joey, have you seen
Detective Bishop? >>He went that way. But the bug is coming. You better hide! >>Oh my God. You better warn everyone
. The laser room. (suspenseful music) >>Let's get all these doors
and hallways clear now. >>Bishop, what's going on? >>It's trying to break into
the hospital from below. Just get everybody
under control. Go on move, get out of here! >>Kids, you all know what
to do, now get going! (suspenseful music) (keypad beeping) (alarm buzzing) (keypad beeping) >>Elliot, if we could
get it in there, the walls are three feet thick. >>Let's do it, we
got to try something. (alarm blaring) (all shouting)
(suspen
seful music) (all screaming) (insect roaring) (all screaming) (gun firing) >>It's upstairs. Must have picked up his scent
when he burned the nest. Won't stop 'til it's
gone, come on, let's go! (all screaming) (gun firing) (gun clicking) (suspenseful music) (glass shattering) (all shouting) >>Dr. Glass! (people screaming) (all screaming) (insect roaring) (gun firing) >>Come on, you son of a
bitch, come and get me. (insect roaring) (suspenseful music) (all screaming) (all shouting) >>Mr. Oscar! Mr
. Oscar. Marcy, get the IV. Pull it in. (all shouting)
(suspenseful music) >>Get in your rooms! (suspenseful music) (insect breathing heavily) (wall crumbling) (suspenseful music) (all shouting) >>We're almost there, honey. >>Keep on pushing, Sandra. (suspenseful music) >>Oh, shit. (suspenseful music) (glass shattering) >>It's coming. It's coming. I can feel it coming. (all shouting)
(suspenseful music) >>He's got Bishop. (suspenseful music) (recorded bug audio warbling) >>It recognizes its mate
s voice. It's working, it's working. >>Let's go, come on. (suspenseful music) >>Here it comes. Here it comes. (alarm blaring) >>Okay, we got him. Elliot! Elliot! (Elliot grunting) Elliot! >>Anybody still in here? (insect roaring) (man grunting) (man screaming) >>Elliot? Elliot? Elliot! Come on! Elliot! >>Oh, my eye. >>You're fine, you're fine. Look, come on, Elliot. We've got to get out of here. (suspenseful music) >>Ah, my leg! >>Give me your weight. (insect roaring) We don't need, get up!
>>Ow
, my leg. >>Put your weight on this
one, and move back on me. He hurt his leg. (Elliot grunting) (all grunting)
(suspenseful music) >>Look out, Bishop! Behind you! >>Damn it. (laser blasting) (insect roaring) (insect roaring) (suspenseful music) (Rachel screaming) >>Rachel! (laser blasting) (Rachel screaming) >>In the eyes! Hit it in the eyes! (laser blasting) (explosion booming) (laser blasting) (objects crashing) (electricity crackling) (explosions booming)
(dramatic orchestral music) >>Now if
I calculate correctly, she should be crawling
in approximately 27 weeks and three days. >>No matter what, baby,
don't take after your father. >>Marwella, you're famous. Your cure was a
complete success. >>Oh, thank you. You know, I hadn't had a
drink in over 20 years. >>Oh, come on. (both laughing) >>Oh, Doc. We got to find a cure
for the hangover. (both laughing) Oh, Marwella. >>Jim. Thanks. >>You promise to take
good care of him, hm? >>There he is.
>>Doctors orders. >>You going home?
>>Going
back to work. >>Will I ever see you again? >>What do you mean, will
you ever see me again? You bet on it. I'm your new best
friend, aren't I? Best friends spend a lot of
time together, don't they? You got my word on it, okay? (dramatic orchestral music) >>Bye. >>Bye bye.
>>Bye. >>Bye. (dramatic orchestral music) >>Thought for sure
it was broken, but I can put my weight on
it, kinda, cane and that, yeah, this'll help. Thanks a lot. It's great. >>Thanks, Elliot. For everything.
>>Oh, yeah. I shoul
d be thanking you. My paper on this
experience is going to make me a legend in
my field. (laughing) >>Just make sure you
spell my name right? >>Okay. >>I want a footnote. >>Alright, you got one. Bye bye, see ya. >>Take care. >>We'll see you, then. >>Where to?
>>I'd like to go home, please. (engine revving) >>How would you like to have a nice quiet
breakfast somewhere soon? >>I'd like that. >>Good. I make an incredible
western omelet. Soon? >>You bet. (light orchestral music) (suspenseful orchest

little bastard's on his way! (ominous music)

This movie was great, classic 80s low budget creature feature. I was born in 1977 i grew up on this stuff and i love it, had never seen this one before but i will be watching it more times. Steve railsback is a favorite of mine ever since lifeforce tobe hoopers space vampire masterpiece. John vernon is a stud I've loved him since i was a kid and he was in one of my favorite movies ever killer klowns from outer space. This is a must see for all fans of 80s creature features i loved every minute of it. Thank you very much for uploading this gem, i don't know how i missed it all these years but I'm so glad i seen it. Damn good movie, everyone watch it. Fun time.
Very well made movie, can't beat the 80s classics ๐
One thing is still for sure in this rapidly changing world. We can always find a nice flick like this to keep us company.
I was watching all this stuff in the theater on cheap Saturday afternoon matinees $3.50 before 7pm, and yet I missed this one? I don't know how I missed this, but this a great 80s creature film, better than average writing, with all sorts of surprises.
Typical 80's flick, love it!! TY for posting!
Thank you Frightpix for uploading this great Horror movie, I appreciate it!
Enjoyable film, never heard of it before--Railsback is good as always
I cant believe I never saw this, or can't remember it, hmmm? Thank you, I enjoyed it. very thrilling from start to finish!
I saw this in the 80s when it was called Blue Monkey. I think it came out around the same time as The Hidden so I used to get them mixed up. I love these kinds of monster movies.
This was a really fun movie...thanks! It was so great to see Railsback, and the always wonderful John Vernon.
Nothing beats a classic. Love this
thank you so much for charing....such a lovely and entertaining film ๐๐๐๐๐๐
Wow. This really turned out to be a good movie. Hollyweird would spend 100 million and it would suck trying to do this.
Old classic movies,are great.โคโคโค
What a thrilling and entertaining suspension! Surprisingly glad I stumbled on to this flick. Thank you for the movie. ๐ฟ๐ป
Loved it! Thank you :)
Canโt believe the detective had the nerve to say โitโs ok Joey you did goodโ Joey was the cause of this whole dam mess๐ฎ๐ฎ
