Chereads / Phantasm: Rise of the Tall Man / Chapter 12 - The End...?

Chapter 12 - The End...?

INT. THE CAR

JODY, REGGIE, JAYSON, and MIKE sit in silence as JODY drives through the dark empty town of PERIGORD. JODY looking at MIKE who looks traumatized. 

JODY

NORTH, huh? 

REGGIE

That's what it said. 

JODY

Then north it is. 

MIKE looks at JODY. 

MIKE

Seriously? 

JODY

You want her back? 

MIKE

Yes. 

JODY

Then we go north. 

REGGIE

But...I mean, we killed him, JODY. We killed the TALL MAN, so...I mean this should be over. 

JODY

You think this is really over? If he had her taken north, then there's other things going on, things we know how to stop. We closed it's gate, we killed their ruler...whatever has her, won't for long. 

REGGIE

JODY...

JODY

You don't have to come with REGGIE. I understand if you don't but, me and MIKE, we gotta see this through. 

JAYSON

Don't forget me. 

JODY

And JAYSON. 

REGGIE

This is crazy. 

JODY

I always can count on you REG. 

MIKE

Yeah, thank you REG. 

REGGIE

I wanna get LIZBETH back too alright. 

JODY pulls up at the PEARSON home as the "PHANTASM THEME" begins playing. 

JODY

Don't take too long you guy's, grab some more ammo and food, and a few outfits, and lets hit the road. 

JAYSON and MIKE get out as they hurry to the house, JODY tapping the steering wheel before wincing in pain as he holds his hand, REGGIE humming a tune as JODY just leans back in his seat and closes his eyes. 

INT. PEARSON HOME

JAYSON grabs a few cans and ammo as MIKE walks upstairs, MIKE grabbing a bag from off his closet door as he begins adding socks and underwear to it as JAYSON comes in, MIKE holding up a picture of him, JAYSON, REGGIE and JODY from a few years ago, MIKE shows it to JAYSON who smiles as he walks over towards the CLOSET, MIKE grabbing his MOTHER'S NECKLACE before he stashes it away in his breast pocket before he looks down the hallway and notices in the HALLWAY MIRROR something standing behind him. 

MIKE turns as THE TALL MAN stood by his bed, MIKE and JAYSON turning as their back was to the CLOSET. 

THE TALL MAN

BOYYY!

THE CLOSET MIRROR SHATTERS AS LURKER'S PULL JAYSON and MIKE inside, the sound of their screaming being drawn out by the sound of flesh and bone being torn apart.
