• Mac : [Showing Uncle Red the Silver Bullet]  There it is. Nicest piece of work I ever done, I think. It's got a low-grain load... so it won't tumble. Ought to be pretty accurate.

  Uncle Red : Why, shoot, it's just a gag. I mean, uh, what the heck you gonna shoot a .44 bullet at anyway... made out of silver?

  Mac : How about a werewolf?

• Uncle Red : Where's your Mom?

  Marty Coslaw : She and Dad are out back lighting the barbeque, yeah, and Jane's walking around in all these new clothes showing off her tits, acting like no one ever had tits before her.

  Uncle Red : So let me get this straight. This dude killed your best friend, drove your best girl out of town, and made them cancel the fireworks. Am I lying?

  Marty Coslaw : Nope, you're not lying, Uncle Red.

  Uncle Red : Well, I got something in here that just might cheer you up.

  [gestures to the garage] 

  Marty Coslaw : [look of surprise]  Oh, I can see it?

• Uncle Red : [Marty's about to test his new motor chair Red souped up]  You ready? I feel like a virgin on prom night.

• Uncle Red : Holy jumped-up baldheaded Jesus palomino!

  Jane Coslaw : Uncle Red...

  Uncle Red : [to Jane then Marty then Jane again]  From him I'd expect it. Sometimes I think your common sense got paralyzed along with your legs. But from you, Jane - you're Miss Polly Practical!

  Jane Coslaw : You don't understand.

  Uncle Red : I understand that my niece and my nephew are sending little love notes to the local minister suggesting he gargle with broken glass or eat a rat-poison omelette!

• Uncle Red : You wanna know what I think?

  Marty Coslaw : No, we just called you out here to admire your pretty little face.

  Uncle Red : You better watch your mouth, right now. You're on thin ice with me, son.

• Uncle Red : [after Jane and Marty tell him about the werewolf]  I'm a little too old to be playing "Hardy Boys meet Reverend Werewolf"!

• Marty Coslaw : You know who used to have a baseball bat like that? Mr. Knopfler.

  Uncle Red : So?

  Jane Coslaw : It looked like Bigfoot had used it for a toothpick!

• Uncle Red : There are no such things as werewolves!

• Uncle Red : [Giving him Marty's Silver Medallion and Jane's Silver Crucifix]  Hello, Uh, my nephew has just discovered the Lone Ranger. And I wonder if you could help me here.

  Mac : [Looking at the Silver items]  You want a silver bullet, huh? Huh?

• Nan Coslaw : [afguing about his drinking in front of Mary]  Look, Marty has enough strikes against him...

  Uncle Red : He doesn't have any strikes against him!

  Nan Coslaw : That I'm afraid one day he's just going to give up.

  Uncle Red : He's not going to give up.

  Nan Coslaw : Well, he doesn't need you showing him how to do it!

• Uncle Red : piss on the yankess piss on the indians and piss on the philies.

• Uncle Red : Don't tell me what to do you've been telling me what to do my whole damn life

• Uncle Red : You mean to tell me you shot him in the eye 3 nights ago and now hes outside painting a sign? hed eiter be dead or in the hospital.
