Quotes 

  • Todd : There used to be a camp not far from here, just across the lake. It was called Camp Blackfoot. No one goes there anymore. Everything burnt down. This camp had a caretaker, and his name was Cropsy. Now, this Cropsy was a drunkard... a sadist, and he got real pleasure out of hurting... scaring. And he had these garden shears. The kind with long, thin blades. He carried them all the time, wherever he went. And he had this kind of demonic way of looking at you. One time, Cropsy really went after this kid from Brooklyn, followed him around night and day. He made this kid's life a living hell. But this time, he chose the wrong guy, 'cause the kid and some of his buddies had planned a little prank. Only problem was, the gag went wrong. The next thing anybody knows, Cropsy's trapped alive and burning in his bunk. They try to get him out, but the fire's so fierce, they can't reach him. All they can do is stand outside and listen to him cry out in agony. They say his smashed his way through the bunkroom door in just a mass of flames. And as he burned alive, he cried out, "I will return! I will have my revenge!" They never found his body, but he survived. He lives on whatever he can catch. Eats them raw, alive. No longer human. Right now, he's out there. Watching, waiting. Don't look; he'll see you. Don't move; he'll hear you. Don't breathe; you're dead!

    Todd : What do you have to say about that, Alfred?

    Alfred : I only meant to scare her.

    Michelle : You only meant to scare her. Well, you sure as hell did scare her!

  • Todd : You know what your problem is?

    Glazer : No, man. What's my problem?

    Todd : You can't take anyone your own size.

    Glazer : Oh yeah? Well, that's bullshit.

  • Michelle : What are we going to do now?

    Todd : All right, we'll all split up and search this whole area. The canoes have to be around here somewhere.

    Sophie : What happens if we don't find them?

    Todd : Then we'll build a raft, or something.
