Movie Quote(s):
  • Isley: All that's left is in baskets. [the bodies of the campers were dismembered and Isley and his workers come to the Indian village going after John Hawks thinking he had something to do with it]
  • Maggie Verne: Here try this. [back at the cabin Maggie makes the fish that the Doctor caught during the day and waits for him to have some] Dr. Robert Verne: Aphrodesia. [Dr. Verne OK's the fish after a good taste test] Maggie Verne: You think you can catch some more. Dr. Robert Verne: Are you kidding. I'm one of the World's great fisherman. Maggie Verne: Well you do the fishing and I'll do the eating. Dr. Robert Verne: Sounds like a good relationship.
  • M' Rai: There are underground tunnels beneath the frost line to store perishables. [M'Rai talks at the old Indian village site with Dr. Verne and his wife Maggie ] M' Rai: The forest provides more than a man could possibly need. Things grow big here... real big. Dr. Robert Verne: Well, I saw a salmon that took my breath away. M' Rai: It is the garden of Eden. M' Rai: I've never let anyone here, you are the first to see.
  • Dr. Robert Verne: Can these people get help? [Dr. Verne after saving a dieing mutant cub and treating it in a tent at the Indian site referring to some Indian men who are with Hawks] John Hawks: Yes, they can send for help in the village. Dr. Robert Verne: Is there a Newspaper. John Hawks: Yes. Dr. Robert Verne: Tell them to get cameras, the Paper Mill people, and the Sheriff. Dr. Robert Verne: Not the Sheriff. Dr. Robert Verne: Hawks! You have to see the truth. You have more here at stake than I do.
