- Laurie Strode: I've run from you. I have chased you. I have tried to contain you. I have tried to forgive you. I thought maybe you were the Boogeyman. No, you're just a man who's about to stop breathing.
- [first lines]
- Mrs. Allen: Corey, you're a lifesaver.
- Corey: Hi.
- Mrs. Allen: How've you been? Come on in.
- Laurie Strode: I've said goodbye to my boogeyman, but the truth is, evil doesn't die. It changes shape.
- Laurie Strode: You know, there are two kinds of evil. There's the evil that exists as an external force that threatens the well-being of the tribe. Survival depends on understanding and awareness and fear of physical threat to our daily lives. The other kind of evil lives inside of us. Like a sickness or an infection. It's more dangerous because we may not know we're infected.
- Corey: Am I a bad person? Are you?
- Laurie Strode: Well... we're both fucked-up. I want to help you, Corey. Let me help you. Or let me find help for you. You can't have her. Allyson is not equipped for this relationship, and I will not let her get hurt. So stay the fuck away...
- Corey: You started this! You brought me in! You invited me! But you're the one to blame. "You want to do it, or you want me to?" If I can't have her... no one will. You want to help Allyson? Let her live her life. She has me now. You should give in. You should surrender to that feeling you had the first time you ever looked into his eyes. You secretly hope Michael comes back for you. I'm the psycho. You're the freak show.
- Terry: Hey, guys. Would you look at this? I mean, a psycho meets a freak show. This is a match made in heaven.
- Laurie Strode: [to Allyson] You know, you need to find someone that can let go. That makes you want to rip off your shirt and show grief your fucking tits and say,
- [pretending to flip grief off with pumpkin guts in her hands]
- Laurie Strode: "You know what? Let's go!"
- Laurie Strode: Jesus, Frank, have you ever heard of a vegetable?
- Frank: Well, look who it is?
- Laurie Strode: They're good for you.
- Frank: Well, I like to mix meats and make croquettes for the guys at the station.
- Laurie Strode: Okay, that just sounds disgusting.
- Nurse Deb: You're fucking him, aren't you? It's like the perfect story of Haddenfield in a way. Cute young girl falls for local creep. Imagine if your grandmother had fallen in love with Michael Myers. But she didn't. I heard she stabbed him in the neck with a fucking knitting needle.
- Allyson: What's your problem, Deb? You talk to me like I'm never here. Do you ever shut your goddamn mouth?
- Nurse Deb: I know, right. I know I talk too much. I just get so excited about all that Boogeyman bullshit.
- Joan: My son. This town turned against him after the accident with Jeremy Allen. They would've felt for him. They would've helped him heal. But because your boogeyman disappeared, they needed a new one.
- Title Sequence: Russian-Doll Pumpkins exploding towards the viewer.
- Laurie Strode: [as Corey wakes up] It's nice to see you. You know, there are two kinds of evil. There's the evil that exists as an external force that threatens the well-being of the tribe. Survival depends on understanding and awareness and fear of physical threat to our daily lives. The other kind of evil lives inside us, like a sickness or an infection. It's more dangerous because we may not know we're infected.
- Corey: Am I a bad person?
- [Laurie chuckles]
- Corey: Are you?
- Laurie Strode: Well... we're both fucked up. I wanna help you, Corey. Let me help you or let me find help for you. You can't have her. Allyson is not equipped for this relationship and I will not let her get hurt. So, stay the fuck away...
- Corey: --You started this! You brought me in! You invited me! You're the one to blame. You wanna do it or you want me to? If I can't have her, no one will. You wanna help Allyson, let her live her life. She has me now. You should give in. You should surrender to that feeling you had the first time you ever looked into his eyes. You secretly hope that Michael comes back for you.

- Corey: I'm the psycho. You're the freak show.
