Movie quotes

  • (..) the look she gave me! I thought the flesh was gonna melt off her face. It's not funny. She's not happy unless everyone around her is panicked, nauseous or suicidal. And the Clackers just worship her. - The who? - They call them Clackers. The sound that their stilettos make in the marble lobby. (..)
