David Lynch’s pictures are so disturbing that it should be easy to pick out a particularly disturbing line – but I’m having a hard time thinking of any.
Isn’t that line “Put the bunny back in the box.”?
I watched 2001 for the umpteenth time a few days ago. In the scene where HAL and Bowman are discussing the mission and it’s unique aspects, HAL interrupts the conversation with:
"Just a moment, just a moment" then goes on to explain the impending failure of the ship’s antenna. This is, of course, all a set up to
murder the crew
Watching HAL unemotionally and almost instantly make his decision to start the chain of events is pretty creepy.
In The Shining, Delbert Grady calmy describes “correcting” his wife and two daughters. Phillip Stone’s delivery is sublime. He’s perfectly calm, but obviously insane, much like HAL.
I love Kubrick’s villians.
Ironically enough, a line that I found particularly chilling was from a movie that I thought was totally inane.
Start Trek Generations:
Dr. Soran, “They say time is a fire in which we burn.”
If this is a quote from something I would like to know what it is. That line really hit home to me.
Silence of the Lambs -
It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again.
Yep. Followed shortly thereafter by the plaintive, “Why couldn’t he put the bunny back in the box?” 
Lisa-go-Blind, good call on Heavenly Creatures. The line is subtle, but I agree it’s chilling (I like subtle).
Speaking of which, some of Lecter’s more “innocent-sounding” phrases are downright disturbing, just in the intonation and the revelation of what it is he’s divined about his opponent:[ul]
[li]You still wake up sometimes, don’t you? You wake up in the dark and hear the screaming of the lambs.[/li][li]You know how quickly the boys found you . . all those tedious sticky fumblings in the back seats of cars. While you could only dream of getting out . . getting anywhere . . . getting all the way to the F . . . B . . . I.[/li][*]I do wish we could chat longer, but I’m having an old friend for dinner. Bye.[/ul]
Red Dragon:
Dinner guest: “What is it?”
Hannibal Lecter (ever so gently): “If I told you . . you wouldn’t even try it.”
Private Pyle" “Seven-six-two millimeter. Full Metal Jacket”, chilling and pivotal.
mm
Joe Pesci (in Goodfellas): …I’m funny how? I mean, funny like I’m a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh… I’m here to fuckin’ amuse you?
From the same movie, but without the .wav:
Hey, Ma, can I borrow this knife?the guy in the trunk of the car would be happier if she said, no!
Another one from Alien.
Ash is dissecting the ‘face hugger’ thing. He talks about what a ‘tough son of a bitch it is’ or some such.
Ripley - “And you let it in.”
To be fair, Alias was the one who mentioned it, I just explained it. But agree - it’s very creepy.
There are some good chilling quotes from Alien, as it is a pretty creepy movie. But Aliens has a couple good creepy quotes:
Ripley: Promise me we’re going there to destroy them, not to study…
Burke: You have my word.
Newt: They mostly come at night…mostly.
Thank you; my apologies to Alias for the misattribution.
To continue with the thread, how about another from Lector - only this time from Michael Mann’s Manhunter, with Brian Cox: “And if one does what God does enough times, one will become as God is.”
And this one from Robert DeNiro as Louis Cyphere in Angel Heart: “No matter how cleverly you sneak up on a mirror, your reflection always looks you straight in the eye.”
This was the one that came to mind when I saw the thread title, too.
Although the Vincent Price line from the original The Fly still treads uncomfortably on my subconsious.
“Help me…”
What are you taklking about?!?!
From the original 1978 version:
Francine: They’re still here.
Stephen: They’re after us. They know we’re still in here.
Peter: They’re after the place. They don’t know why, they just remember. Remember that they want to be in here.
Francine: What the hell are they?
Peter: They’re us that’s all, when there’s no more room in hell.
Stephen: What?
Peter: Something my grand-dad used to tell us. You know Mucumba? Voodoo. My grand-dad was a priest in Trinidad. He used to tell us, “when there’s no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth.”
The as pointed out this was restated in the remake by the same actor playing a preacher on the TV
Clifford Worley (Dennis Hopper) in True Romance
Actually, just about anything Christopher Walken says in that scene; but that quote got to me because it shows that Hopper’s characters knows he’s going to die.
Also, from The Ring:
Changed the whole movie for me from a “let’s help the poor, murdered girl-ghost find some peace” thing to “Oh, crap! She was evil all along!”.
On the contrary, you reminded me perfectly of why it was so creepy, and the subsequent scene which I could barely watch. If only PJ wouldn’t make it sound so real.
“Ready when you are, Sergeant Pembry”
Actually uttered twice: once when Lecter was still confined and ready to have his hands bound in preparation for having his dinner delivered; and a second time, after Lecter had escapsed and beaten the other officer to death, and was casually ambling over to the wounded Pembry with a knife in his hand.
It’s ‘better’ the second time.
Lecter may be the champ of this category.
Psycho: “Well, a boy’s best friend is his mother.”
From Jaws (Not necessarily disturbing - just cool): “You’re gonna need a bigger boat.”
From 2001 a Space Odyssey: very softly and politely by the HAL 9000 computer.
“I’m sorry Dave, I can’t let you do that.”
