Arnold

They're eating her! And then they're going to eat me! [fly on forehead] Oh my Goooood!

[after his female companion sips the broth and starts immediately getting sick] What's wrong, what's wrong with her?

[confronting a group of goblins chasing a girl] Let me give you some helpful advice, you... dwarves. Get out of here... or you will be in a lot of trouble.

[winks at girl]

Elliot Cooper

• [Elliot and Brent laying in bed together] We left in too much of a hurry Drew. Go into town and do the shopping now.
• [After being punched in the testicles] What are you tryin' to do, turn me into a homo?!

Creedence Leonore Gielgud

• THAT... is ENOUGH!
• Aaahhh! Think about the cholesterol! Think about... THE TOXINS...!
• What's the matter? Aren't you hungry?
• We'll just have to... heat it up!

Grandpa Seth

• No! But I know a trick that a friend of mine who went there taught me!
• Half man, half plant. A goblin's favorite food.
• You start a fire, I'll distract them with this.
• That's exactly what happened... with a voracity than has no equal on Earth!
• These evil creatures can transform themselves into fleas-and-blood people whenever and however they want.
• They can! They CAN! Goblins still exist! Your Grandpa Seth is telling you!
• The Stonehenge magical stone... the goblins' magic power!

Holly Waits

• Why not? It's what he deserves - a big spanking for a little shit!
• But how are we going to make grandpa come?
• But how do we get him to come? By having a seance maybe?
• Elliot is not my beau! He's my boyfriend and he told me last night that he loves me and that he wanted to come on this trip with me and my family.

Diana Waits

• Joshua, start singing. Come on, sing that song I like so much.
• [both singing] Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily. Life is but a dream...
• Good night, dear. Good night, dear.
• Michael! Who are the goblins?

Michael Waits

• Do you see this writing...? Do you know what it means...? Hospitality. And you can't piss on hospitality! I WON'T ALLOW IT!
• [reaching for his belt]
• Tightening my belt one loop so that I don't feel hunger pains, and your sister and mother will have to do likewise. Okay, Joshua. You wanna get rough with me? You wanna show me that you don't like the choice of this house for our vacation by going on a hunger strike? Well, I'll accept the challenge. But just remember when I was your age, I really did suffer from hunger. We'll see who gets through this, but just remember I've got more practice than you. I'll see you tomorrow.

Joshua Waits

• [last lines]
• They're eating my mom!
• A double-decker bologna sandwich!
• What are you going to do to me, Daddy?
• I don't feel like singing, Mom!
• [singing] Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream...
• [both singing] Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily. Life is but a dream...
• We NEED Grandpa Seth here!
• You're genius big sister!
• Don't tell me they ate him, Grandpa!
• You're making a mistake Grandpa. Who said they can? You should of said they could or what kind of fairy tale is it?

Dialogue

Elliott [sneaks into Holly's bedroom]

Holly: Elliott! What kind of idiotic joke is this? You scared the shit out of me!

Elliott: I'm the victim of a nocturnal rapture. I have to release my lowest instincts with a woman.

Holly: [Punches Elliott in the groin] Release your instincts in the bathroom.

Elliott: Are you nuts? You trying to turn me into a homo?

Holly: Wouldn't be too hard. If my father discovers you here, he'd cut off your little nuts and eat them. He can't stand you.
