changes to first thriller idea

• Main character(Killer): Sara Millfield
• Key Victims: -Marc,15 years old, the geek.
-Dave,16 years old, rugby boy
-Tim,16 years old, is helped by Lisa



She is very attractive, she disguises herself as a young high-school girl who is in reality 105 years old. She wants to keep young because she doesn’t feel that she has lived her life enough. She sucks the soul out of young boys. Her real name is Patricia Godfield. Lisa and Tim realise the disappearance of male friends and are attempted to study the killers mysterious past. Set mostly in school’s in America and in the victims house.
The initial idea of the whole story was representing an over-turn in stereotypical male killers where we finally see a man as the victim and the woman as the killer. The jock jacket at the beginning signifies that he is the typical, popular jock, therefore, showing that the place and setting of the whole film is in a high school, signifying that the target audience is adolescents.
The story behind her killing him in the opening sequence, is her mistreated high school years by boys like the boy in the shower.
After the opening sequence, the main idea is to continue the film by presenting lives of teen-agers in high school and continuing with many cases of similar murders that we saw in the opening sequence.
We cut to the school corridor where we see Mark the geek being bullied by Dave the hunk who locks him in a school locker and walks away. The girl rescues the geek and seduces him by kissing him and asking him on a date, he accepts and runs away with embarrassment. The cool guy sees this and tries to chat her up due to jealousy but she plays hard to get and walks away.
We next see Mark and the girl in a cinema and she seduces him by touching him on the knee and drags him into the bathroom knowing that he is too shy and weak to say no. She kills him by stabbing him violently while smoke which is supposed to be his soul exhales out of his mouth .We see the girl next day at school with Dave the hunk who is trying to get her to go out with him but his girlfriend Lisa interrupts and fights with the girl, therefore she leaves. We next see Dave call the girl and ask her out, we cut to her on the phone looking at herself in the mirror and she notices wrinkles on her hand and some grey hair (shows her problem), she piles on some make-up and accepts to go out with him requesting to meet at a club. We then cut to the club where there is a lot of chaos and drugged up people with hard-core techno playing. Dave walks through the crowd and sees her face through the crowd. She indicates to go upstairs. We cut to them walking into a dark, stingy room with a dim light. A close-up of them kissing and then we only see the dim light and we hear her stabbing him violently while he screams and then she leaves the room.
Next day she is in the corridor flirting with Tim, a new character who is the friend of Lisa, this is where Lisa starts to suspect this girl. The next day, Lisa walks up to the girl insulting her and asks her lots of questions about herself, she sees the wrinkles on her hand and the girl notices this and runs away. We cut to Lisa researching on the internet for this girl’s past but can’t find anything matching her fake name. She finds a book in the library which talks about this kind of power. The book says that she can only be destroyed by being called by her real name. She realises that she has to do research in the girl’s house to find her real name. She tells Tim the situation and asks him to help her, so he asks the girl on a date and takes her to his house. Lisa breaks into the girl’s house and finds all sorts of papers…. We see Lisa finally finding the real name and runs to Tim’s house. When she arrives, she is beaten up by the girl and Tim manages to get out of the bed and gets the papers and screams out her name. We see the girl shrivel up on the floor and loose all souls of her victims through exhaling the smoke.



We had to change our original thriller idea because it was predictable and we had problems with how to edit certain shots in to work with our film. The predicable parts were the jogger in the woods a preditor killing her pray and with all the vampire films around at the moment we felt it was to obvious to have a human being killed and prayed on by a human looking killer. we thought that our new ideasFor the thriller is more traditional but with a twist we got our inspiration from the film psycho but we changed the stereotype by making a innocent blond girl the blood thirsty killer as opposed to the big knife wheeling man.
I prefer the new idea and I think it is going to be easier to film than the previous one.
