Script

A male and female are walking down an empty street in the early evening time, dressed in smart casual clothes chatting. They stop outside of a house with one light left on.

MALE: Well this was a fun night, I had a good time

FEMALE: giggles. You sound surprised

MALE: chuckles. Oh no, I didn’t mean it like that

FEMALE: It’s ok, I know what you mean. Do you want to come in for half an hour? If you don’t mind I’d like to talk to you more about your job.

MALE: Erm, yeah alright, it’s not too late for me. I have work in the morning.
Female leads male into the house, the door shuts and at the same time we hear a bang of some sort. Snap cut.

Fade into a POV shot, groggy, blurred vision. Eyes keep opening and closing until character regains full consciousness.
Looks around, sees female leaning on the door watching him calmly. Male is panicking, trying to move out of his chair but can’t.

FEMALE: (Calmly) it’s no use, they all try this, getting a bit old now.

MALE: What are you doing? Untie me.

Female ignores him, strolls over to the clothes she has laid out.

MALE: Oi! I said untie me, I don’t know what kind of game you’re playing, But I’m not gonna to be a part of it.

She still ignores him as she is putting on the medical scrubs as we now see.

MALE: "FUCKING" UNTIE ME!

Female sharply turns to him and hits him around the face;
Blood spat from his mouth.

Female ties a gag around the male’s mouth.


FEMALE: Do you ever shut up? I Mean do all men talk this much or is it just the really stupid ones? You’re all the same, pathetic, cruel beings who think that all women are their servants. Well that’s going to change very soon; we’ll make sure of that.

Female slices his shoulder with a small knife. Male screams and starts to panic even more as blood stains his white shirt.

FEMALE: Men need to know what they’re dealing with and they’re need to know their place and I am the spark to kick off the revolution and you my dear boy, are one of the first casualties.

FEMALE: (Whispers in his ear) Feeling high and mighty now? (Normal volume) Well?
Female continues to repeat the phrase “Well” in exceeding levels of aggression.

Props List

Cheap Clothes – These will be used for numerous reasons firstly they will covered in blood and ruined this was decided to save money as we only have a small budget. Secondly it adds to the monster fodder it makes him look weaker and insignificant as he cannot afford anything better and will also make him look like a immigrant this will make him seem even less powerful as he will not be fully aware of his surroundings and not have many connections in his outside life.
Chair – The monster fodder will wake up tied to a chair. A chair was chosen as it restricts movement other ideas where considered such as tying the monster fodder to ceiling beams but this was considered the most effective and safe way to restrain the monster fodder.
Rope / Ties – These will be used to tie the monster fodder to the chair they will also look effective on camera and could be considered to be iconographic of horror films.
Apron – This will makeup part of the antagonists costume it was chose for two main reasons firstly it can be splattered with blood and add a “butcher” element to the antagonist
Dust Mask – was chosen to add stylistic elements to the character adding to his D.I.Y surgeon feel. It also removes all emotion from the character making them seem cold unreceptive and inhuman.
Surgical Gloves – will be used to add a aesthetic look to the character they also have practical reasons within the film such as keeping the antagonists hands clean and for the purposes of not leaving any finger prints.
Tools – The antagonist will have various tools for killing ideas include hand saws, pliers and clippers.

Fake Blood Rig:
Fake Blood – Homemade fake blood will be used as it is cost effective and a large supply can be made.
Food Bags – Will be used to contain the fake blood. They will be concealed under the actors clothes and multiple ones can be made for various shots and angles or even put in other areas of the body.
Tea Towels / Wood – These will be used to protect the actor, will be concealed and play no part in the movie.
