Tourist: "He's not only a hitchhiker, he's a party pooper."

Mayor Buckman (Jeffrey Allen): "We're celebratin' somethin' that happened over a hundred years ago. It's a big deal around here, and part of the ceremony is that we get us some strangers from up north. Ya get everythin' free. It's an honor damn it!"

Tourist: "Such a strange little affair, it's almost like Halloween."

Tourist: "Mr. Buckman, what is that on that spit over there?" Mayor Buchman: "Oh, that's nothing. That's just part of the Centennial...symbolic...I think that's the word that it is."

Tom White (William Kerwin): "Look, officer, I don't know how to convince you of this, but... we're not crazy!"
Policeman (Andy Wilson): "Mister, I didn't say you was crazy. Nothing like that, I just think it's mighty peculiar!"

Mayor Buckman: "We got ourselves the makin's for a barbecue."

Tom White: "Has it occurred to you that nobody has told us what this Centennial is all about? Now, this is 1965, and a hundred years ago it was 1865, right? So, what happened in 1865?"
Terry Adams (Connie Mason): "It was the ending of Civil War. The War Between States!"
Tom White: "Well then you tell me why would a Southern town want Northerners as guests of honor at the Centennial. It must have something to do with what happened a hundred years ago. So, something is very wrong with this town."

Tom White: "... this Centennial is a Centennial of blood vengeance! It means... it means we're here to be killed!"

Rufus Tate (Gary Bakeman): "We got us some good 'uns! Dogged if we don't!"
