Quotes 

  • Kim Katlin : But they're just paintings.

    Father Gregory Mendale : No they're not, they're powerful, I've tracked these paintings for years. Every owner that has had them in his or her possession has disappeared, or worse. Dorian Wilde, Dylan Wilson, the names are not a coincidence. Douglas Winter slaughtered his entire family and committed suicide. These paintings, they corrupt the soul.

  • Father Gregory Mendale : This is hard to explain, but do not hang those paintings, I beg you.

    Dylan Wilson : [laughs]  Well what do you do with paintings aside from hanging them?

    Father Gregory Mendale : Destroy them. Do not let the animals fool you, they will not bring you happiness, only despair, the man who created these was very disturbed, he was washed up, regarded as a failure, there's a darkness beneath these paintings, an evil within them.

  • Father Gregory Mendale : If thy eye offends thee.

    [stabs out his eye with his crucifix] 

  • Father Gregory Mendale : I heard about what happened to your friend last night.

    Hank : I don't want to talk about it.

    Father Gregory Mendale : Sometimes talking helps.

    Hank : Who're you, a therapist?

    Father Gregory Mendale : I used to be a priest.

    Hank : Murray was a great guy, never saw anything like it... he drank until... til he burst.

    Father Gregory Mendale : Did he have any contact with one of the paintings from the Sinsation collection?

    Hank : I don't know what that is.

    Father Gregory Mendale : They're animal paintings, it's a series, there's one of a pig swimming in mud.

    Hank : Oh yeah, that's what he was looking at before he, before he lost his mind.

    Father Gregory Mendale : Gluttony.

    Hank : What?

    Father Gregory Mendale : Gluttony, the pig represents gluttony.

  • Father Gregory Mendale : You have to give me the Wilsons' address where those paintings were sent.

    Tess Barryman : And you need to leave my gallery before I call the cops.

    Father Gregory Mendale : Go ahead, call the police and I'll tell them you're responsible for what happened to Murray Trenton last night.

    Tess Barryman : That was a very unfortunate accident.

    Father Gregory Mendale : And is that what you call what happened to Douglas Winter's family, an accident? Yes, I know where you got the collection, I know what happened to the last family who owned those paintings.

    Tess Barryman : That was a tragedy, obviously the man went crazy.

    Father Gregory Mendale : All the result of Dorian Wilde's paintings, I'm trying to stop it from happening again, Miss Barryman.

    Tess Barryman : You can't claim an artist's work was responsible for the actions of a sick individual.

    Father Gregory Mendale : Mr. Wilson, his wife, and anyone else who comes in contact with those paintings is in danger.

  • Father Gregory Mendale : 7 paintings, 7 sins, all represented by animals: gluttony is the pig, greed is the toad, sloth is snails, envy is depicted by a snake, the goat is lust, pride is the peacock, and the lion is wrath.

  • Kim Katlin : I couldn't help overhearing that conversation in there, were you just discussing the Sinsation collection?

    Father Gregory Mendale : [turns around]  And what may I ask do you know about them?

    Kim Katlin : Not much, but my boyfriend was just given the lion one today.

    Father Gregory Mendale : Wrath, that's the deadliest one. Wrath is uncontrolled hatred and anger. Your boyfriend's in danger, so is anyone near him as long as he has that painting.
