Script

We plan not to have very much dialogue in our film as we don’t want to detract from the scary storyline or the tense atmosphere. We feel that by having dialogue at the beginning it will give the audience enough information about the characters and their back story. It will also mean that we can keep the characters separated throughout the rest of the film so that the audience feels that they are more vulnerable and alone.

We want the music to be the most prominent sound in our film as we believe that the audience is usually most affected by this aspect in a horror film and this is what causes them to become frightened and become uneasy.

           

The Attack

Girl number 2: “Where are your parents?”

Girl number 1: “They're away for the weekend, so girly night in.” 

[The two girls then walk to the sitting room and turn on the TV.]

(TV has fuzz to show light in their face without having copyright issues of playing a different film in our film)

Girl number 1: “I swear I just saw something at the window, it might be next door checking on me. One second.”

Girl number 2: “Okay, see you in a minute.”

[Scary music starts playing as girl 1 walks out of the sitting room]

[Villain is at window, watching the girl 2.]

[Girl 1 goes outside]

[Heavy breathing by heard by villain in bushes]

[Scene cuts to girl 2 who is in the sitting room.]

[Girl 2 goes upstairs to see were the noise is coming from]

News report

Police man: “This is the hardest case I've ever been on, the man has never been sighted. The only way we know who he is, is by his signature bloody hand down the window of the house he has attacked.”

Changes to news report

We have decided not to have the news report at the end of our film anymore as we have decided to have newspaper clippings at the beginning instead. This is because we think that it will look a lot more effective and the audience will understand what is happening sooner. Therefore we have chosen to have the villain walking away into the darkness instead at the end.
