Deep Rising Quotes

Finnegan: Do you know how many uncharted islands there are in this ocean?

Pantucci: I don't know, two?

Finnegan: Don't wander off.

T. Ray: Didn't know you cared.

Finnegan: I care about yer gun.

[repeated line; just before something bad happens]

Finnegan: Now what?

Hanover: [Mulligan stands in front of the hatch door to the galley, and keeps them away from it] We're not staying here, Mulligan!

Mulligan: I say we are!

[Holds his assault rifle up to Hanover's face, Hanover holds his handgun up to Mulligan's face]

Mulligan: Last stand, eh? We'll kick ass and take names!

Hanover: You back off right now, soldier... before I put you down!

Finnegan: [after a few moments of silence] I once saw a guy put a fish in a bottle. Then he corked it, sealed it tight, and threw it to a baby octopus. Now the octopus, he felt his way all around that bottle. And in less than two minutes, he got the cork off, slid inside, and ate the fish.

Pantucci: And the moral of this story is...?

Trillian St. James: We're the fish. Listen... the ship's already starting to sink. What if they don't get here in time? I don't wanna drown..

Pantucci: Yeah.

Finnegan: Look Mulligan. You can do whatever you want. But I am gonna get my ass to the surface... and pray to God my boat is still there, and those things aren't crawlin' all over it. And then I am gonna bail the hell outta here!

Finnegan: Like a fine wine, I'm aging gracefully, thank you.

Mason: Like a fine wine my ass. You look more like a keg of beer to me.

Billy: So what you realizing, Mamooli?

Mamooli: Well, that my goal in life before I die is to make love to a woman from every country on Earth.

Vivo: You come to my country I shoot your ass!

Hanover: You wanna wind up in jail, Mulligan?

Mulligan: Better there then in the belly of one of those things!

Mulligan: [the remaining six survivors are in the galley] I say we stay right here!

Trillian St. James: Are you insane?

Pantucci: No man, he's right. There's plenty of food here. We can hold out until they rescue us.

Canton: They're right. This is the galley for the crew, it was built to be almost entirely airtight in case of fire. With these hatches closed there's no way those things co get in here.

Hanover: You wanna wind up in jail, Mulligan?

Mulligan: Better that than in the belly of one of those things!

Finnegan: I don't care what you do but I'm gonna keep on goin', It's our only chance.

Mulligan: [Points his gun at him and keeps him away from the door] Back off. They're wiping us out one at a time. I say we make a stand. Right here... .right now.

Pantucci: The whole damn ship's infested Finnegan. We're not gonna make it back to the boat anyways!

Finnegan: I'm not staying down here and that's a fact. Now back off that hatch.

Mulligan: [Hold the gun up to Finnegan's face] I'll do it. I'll do it. I swear to god I'll kill you! I'm not mucking about here!

Pantucci: Don't get hasty, man.

Canton: [Captain Atherton has just been eaten by one of the monsters] I'm beginning to fear that our friends here may be some kind of strange off-shoot of the Archaea Ottoia family.

Pantucci: The Ottoia family? To think I was startin' to worry.

Canton: At 4,000 feet the Ottoia are only as long as a pencil, with bodies about the size of a golf ball. But those at 20,000 feet have been known to eat full grown sharks! At 30,000 or 40,000 feet...

[to Pantucci]

Canton: Well... you do the math.

Trillian St. James: So.. this is not good?

Pantucci: Are we talkin' some kind of mutated sea monsters here?

Mason: Who gives a shit what they are? Just tell us how to kill these motherfuckers.

Canton: The Ottoia are very crafty. They hide... in.. burrows and, they catch their victims with spiny tentacles and then they, they.. crush them between massive jaws.

Trillian St. James: Then they eat you, right?

Canton: ...No, they drink you. They drink you alive. Sucking all the fluids out of a body before excreting the skeletal remains.

Pantucci: [Coming across a propeller] I think we killed a speedboat.

Finnegan: [confused] A speedboat? We're hell and gone from the nearest land! No way a speedboat gets out this far.

Captain Atherton: This is supposed to be your life's work, I thought.

Canton: I spent my whole life, my entire fortune, building this ship. I'll be damned if I'm gonna lose it to a bunch of pencil-necked bankers.

Mulligan: [after only Joey surfaces] Where's Mason?

Pantucci: They caught up to him.

Mulligan: Shit not Mason... no way is this happening!

Mason: Shut up grease monkey! You're expendable, you know what I mean?

Pantucci: Yeah, I know. Story of my life.

Communications Officer: Our signal goes out static, sir - I've never seen anything like it.

Canton: [yelling] This equipment is state of the art, top of the line!

Captain Atherton: Mr. Canton, PLEASE! We are in a very dangerous situation here. We are running without radar or any form of imaging - we are sailing blind. And no way to bloody communicate our situation.

Sonar Man: I have something here, sir..

Captain Atherton: What is it Colin?

Sonar Man: I don't know sir but whatever it is, it's uh... big.

Canton: Probably just a pod of whales.

Sonar Man: Moving at 31 knots, sir? I don't think so.

Canton: Where's it coming from?

Sonar Man: Directly beneath us sir, 160 meters *directly* beneath us and rising very quickly... 150 meters... 140... 130... 120... 110... 100 meters - 90, 80, 70...

Canton: [looks at sonar monitor] What are they?

Sonar Man: 60... 50 meters!

[the Ottoia ram the ship]

[after Trillian hits Pantucci with her shoe]

Pantucci: I think she broke my nose!

Trillian St. James: Give me a chance and I'll break the rest of your face. Not that anyone would notice.

Pantucci: What is this about?

[the big bad monster has just eaten the boat's captain]

Canton: I'm beginning to fear that our friends here may be some kind of strange offshoot of the Archaea Ottoia family.

Pantucci: Oh, the Ottoia family. And to think I was startin' to worry.

Leila: You've gotta do *something*.

Finnegan: I find you live longer if you don't.

Pantucci: [looking around the workshop] Oh man, what stinks?

[T-Ray slaps Joey in the face]

Pantucci: Did I say it was you?

Finnegan: [Hanover's goons are beating up Pantucci] We got a contract: 20 hours out and back. You beat my engine man to death, it's gonna take a hell of a lot longer - which is ok by me since overtime'll cost you double rate!

Hanover: He was nosing around in my cargo!

Finnegan: Ok, so he's nosy.

Hanover: Contract was "no questions asked."

Mason: Yo, fellas, I vote we kick this lil' piece of shit overboard!

Mamooli: Well, I vote we kill him!

Mulligan: I vote we kill him, then throw him overboard!

Finnegan: Well, we don't vote here, it's NOT a democracy.

[one of the goons hits Pantucci]

Finnegan: Ok, I'll say it one more time for the hearing impaired...

[hits one of them, points his harpoon gun at Mamooli, a standoff ensues]

Finnegan: [long pause] This could be messy...

Trillian St. James: What the hell are these things?

Finnegan: Real unfriendly.

[repeated line]

Finnegan: Hang on!

Finnegan: What you got there?

Pantucci: Peanut...

Finnegan: Peanut?

Pantucci: Peanut.

Finnegan: Okay, peanut...

Pantucci: [Joey drops his peanut in the water] Shit!

Vivo: Yes! Money, money, money, money...

[as the door to the vault opens, Kanton lodges an axe into Vivo's head]

Pantucci: Give me the parts.

Finnegan: [Mumbling] I lom...

Pantucci: E-lu-deh?

Finnegan: I lost them, okay, I lost them!

Finnegan: [the rad stops working] Son of a bitch. Pantucci!

Pantucci: [Stands up and hits his head] Ow! shit man!

Finnegan: [On headset] I'm flyin' blind up here, brainiac. I thought you fixed the radar.

Pantucci: It's a little temperamental, you have to be gentle.

Finnegan: Gentle, my ass. The whole system just crapped out on me.

Pantucci: Killed off by your negative vibes no doubt.

Finnegan: No doubt.

[Finnegan hits the radar, which sends sparks flying at the box that Joeys at and makes him jump]

Pantucci: Are you hitting that thing again?

Finnegan: ...No?

Finnegan: [First lines] How we doin' out there, Leila?

Leila: Fuck you! How you doing, my ass! I'm totally soaked out here.

Finnegan: Aw, come on now, I pay you two bucks a day, don't I?

Leila: Get off your lazy ass and come and help me!

Finnegan: Cut me some slack, will ya? I'm workin' hard too, you know.

[Plays card games on his radar computer]

Vivo: [Trying to make T-Ray vomit] You know what I wanna eat? I'll take a couple of nice, greasy pig's feet, some pickled monkey brains and one of them big elephant eyeballs. Raw. So they pop when you bite into them.

[Imitates popping and slurping]

Billy: [Blows smoke into T-Rays face] Yummy.

[T-Ray vomits again and Vivo high-fives Billy]

Finnegan: [Jumps down in the water behind Trillian and startles her and she fires around 35 rounds at his feet] Jesus lady, watch it, will ya?

Trillian St. James: I'm sorry! Thank god you're alive.

Finnegan: Damn straight I am! Let's keep it that way, huh?

Finnegan: Anything I want?

Trillian St. James: Anything you want.

Finnegan: Can you get me a cold beer?

Pantucci: [chased by the monster] They're catching up, we gotta slow 'em down!

Hanover: The only way to slow 'em down is to feed 'em!

Pantucci: FEED 'EM? The only thing I got is a wet stick of gum and a breath mint!

[Trillian is breaking into the ship's safe until Simon, Capt. Atherton, and Cruise Security catches her in the act]

Canton: [clears throat] Good evening, mademoiselle.

Trillian St. James: Hello.

Captain Atherton: Red handed. My God, what a cheap, little trollop you are.

Trillian St. James: Good evening, gentlemen. I was just on my way out.

[Two security men holds Trillian back]

Trillian St. James: Or not.

Canton: A good decision. There's really no place to run. The nearest land is, what is it, about 600 miles, Captain?

Captain Atherton: Near 800.

Canton: [holding Trillian's rap sheet] According to this fax we received - Oh, that's not a very flattering photograph, is it?

Trillian St. James: What is it?

Canton: You're wanted for burglary, robbery, forgery. Oh, and attempted murder.

Trillian St. James: I can explain that.

[Canton chuckles]

Trillian St. James: What?

Canton: Six arrests, five convictions, and wanted in four countries. How does a beautiful woman as young as yourself amass such an incredible record?

Trillian St. James: Trust me. It wasn't easy.

Canton: I think it's because you're not very good at what you do.

[Canton hits Trillian in the face]

Captain Atherton: Hey, steady on, Canton. No need for that.

Captain Atherton: [Recovers his stolen key card from Trillian] Ah, ah, ah. I believe that's my card, thank you.

Canton: Captain, I forget. Do we have a brig on this ship?

Captain Atherton: Yes, we do, sir, but it's not finished.

Trillian St. James: [angry tone] You can't put a lady in the brig!

Canton: True, but you, mademoiselle, are no lady.

[Security places Trillian in the cold storage room for the remainder of the trip, but manages to steal Canton's wallet]

Trillian St. James: And you, Mr. Canton, are no gentleman.

Leila: [Hanover's thugs are beating up Pantucci, Finnegan seems indifferent] Well, don't just sit there, go help him!

Finnegan: Are you kiddin' me? Those guys are dangerous!

[Finnegan reaches for the gun]

Hanover: [steps on the gun] you back off Finnegan

[Door's hinges breaks and walls are caving in]

Finnegan: Now what?

Hanover: [to Finnegan] Hey!

[kicks him the gun]

Hanover: Billy!

Billy: Yeah chief!

Hanover: Finish the Torpedo launcher and watch the girl.

Billy: Aye chief...

Mamooli: Hey Trevo... I'll watch her, I haven't done Koorean.

Finnegan: Relax Hannover, this is a cruise ship; you're not gonna need your guns.

Pantucci: What if they attack us man?

Finnegan: With what... Margaritas and Tanning oil?

Mamooli: Nobody home.

Mason: This place looks post-evac, man. Total spooky town.

Mamooli: Here come the party crashers!

Finnegan: I don't hear any party...

Mulligan: T-Ray was... you killed him didn't you. You killed him, didn't you? DIDN'T YOU!

[Finnegan knees him in the groin]

Finnegan: I heard you the first time...

Captain Atherton: The ship's infested, the bloody things are everywhere!

Hanover: Infested with what?

Captain Atherton: I don't know - how do I know? I've never seen anything like it before.

[the elevator malfunctions and some cheesy music starts playing]

Finnegan: What the hell is that?

Pantucci: ...The Girl from Ipanema?

Hanover: Where are we?

Finnegan: [points at screen] Right there. Middle of nowhere.

Hanover: And our final destination?

Finnegan: Right...... there. Middle of nowhere squared.

T. Ray: They thought they were sinking so they abandoned ship. Stupid bastards...

Pantucci: Oh my god, he's right. You're right. Yeah. They all jumped overboard. You know I can just see the last asshole in saying "Shit, guess we forgot the lifeboats, guess we're just gonna have to swim for it!"
