"All right, listen up. You people will not die on me in combat. You fucking new guys will do everything you can to prove me wrong. You'll walk on trails, kick cans, sleep on guard, smoke dope and diddely-bop through the bush like you were back on the block. Or on guard at night you'll write letters, play with your organ, and think of your girl back home. Forget her. Right now, some hair head has her on her back and is telling her to fuck for peace. This is Han. Those of you who are foolish will think of him as 'gook,' 'slope,' 'slant' or 'dink.' He is your enemy. He came over on the Chieu Hoi programme, and after he fattens himself on C-rations he will be hunting your young asses in the A Shau Valley. Now forget about this Viet Cong shit. What you'll encounter out there is hard core NVA, North Vietnamese. Highly motivated, highly trained and well equipped. If you meet Han or his cousins, you will give him respect and refer to those little bastards as 'Nathanial Victor.' Meet him twice, and survive, and you will refer to him as 'MISTER Nathanial Victor.' Now people, I am sick and tired of filling body bags with your dumb fucking mistakes."

"I smile at my Mamma. Great meal, Ma. Would you please pass the fucking potatoes. The ham is fucking A, Ma. You don't know how... how fucking great it is to be home. How you going to act, huh?"

"Courtney B. Vance - Doc"

"Han is closing in on your position. It's night... Look at me! I'm gonna save your life and your gonna save mine. It's night, it's raining. While you're thinking about peace, love and whether or not we should be in Vietnam, Han is going to cut your fucking throat. And you're sleeping. You've been humping the boonies for months. It's your turn to sleep, you're allowed to sleep. What do you think Han is going to do? Is he going to wake you up, Alphabet? And smile? And talk about women? Mister Nathanial Victor gets his rocks off watching you die. Some of you think you have problems because you're against the war. You demonstrated in school... you wear peace symbols on your steel, and you have attitudes. I'm orphan, my brother's queer, the city of Chicago got the clap from my sister, Mom drinks, Dad coughs blood, I have ringworm, imersion foot, the incurable crud and the draft ruined my chances of being a brain surgeon. People, you are in Vietnam. You have no problems. Except me. [points to Han who is holding an RPG and grinning] And him."

"While the rest of the world wondered why, the Screamin' Eagles fought and died in the fiercest battle of America's bloodiest war."

"Don James - McDaniel"

"The most realistic portrayal of the Vietnam War ever filmed. Because it's the only one that's true."

"War at its worst. Men at their Best."

"Brush your teeth in a rapid, vertical motion. That's up and down for all you rebels."

"We've been up on that hill ten times, and they still don't think we're serious."

"Worcester: We had a short-timer once. Johnny I-forget-his-name. He wore a flak jacket, two helmets and armor underwear. A Shau Valley... your time's up, your time is up."

"Dylan McDermott - Sgt. Frantz"

"It don't mean nothing, man. Not a thing."

"Galvan: We're Airborne. We don't start fights, we finish 'em!"

"Tegan West - Lt. Eden"

"Steven Weber - Sgt. Worcester"

"Monique van Vooren - Baroness Katrin Frankenstein"

"Joe Dallesandro - Nicholas, The Stableboy"

"Udo Kier - Baron Von Frankenstein"

"Arno Juerging - Otto, The Baron's Assistant"

"Dalila Di Lazzaro - Female Monster"

"Brings The Horror Off The Screen... And Into Your Lap. [The movie was originally presented in 3-D]"

"We have to find the right head for this torso. Has to be of a man who strongly favours women, whose overriding urges are sensual. If we succeed in finding such a single-minded man our chances are very good... that ze male we create... will fall in love with my female zombie. They will mate, and she will bear me the children I want. They're going to be a... true start... of a new race, entirely created by me."

"You disappoint me. You have put an end to my experiments. But my work will live on. I am not going to die... in vain. My work has not... been finished. But I know I was... working in the right direction. I had... no one. Just a lab'ratory. And a dream. Ze female is dead. But he lives. He will.. show the world... my genius. When they... roll out the tape... there can be... riches... perfection. I wanted... to... prove... I... don't... regret... anything. I... tried... my... best. [dies noisily]"

"We dare you to see..."

"Make him unconscious, but don't kill him, or damage his head in any way. I need his brain for my zombie! I am sure it has the right instincts we want!"

"The medical profession would love to claim my achievement as part of their own and call it a giant stride forward of medicine. But they can't. It is a giant stride forward for me!"
