there was many weird occurrences in and around the

5. Characters

6. Who we want to be in our
film.
• We would want Crispin Glover to be in our film
because he’s a very scary man and he plays a
scary man in most of the films that he’s in, therefore
he would be a very believable character.
8. Initial Ideas
• Horror
• Set in an old mans house
• Starts with different shots of conventions of horror,
e.g. children's dolls, old rocking chair etc.
• Nice sunny day to make audience feel like the old
man is nice.
9. Story Line
• The story of an old, quiet man who lives on his own,
he doesn’t have any friends or any family. This man
seems like a nice person to the neighbours, yet little
do they know that this man is a psychopath who
keeps tied up victims in his basement. Throughout
this film we will see the different people that have
affected this old man, making him do the things
that he does.

boy named Billy who is a sixteen year old school
boy who has been suffering from bullying since he
was the age of eight. He hated going to school
everyday and just couldn't wait to get home, he
never told anyone, not even his parents. Billy was
starting his GCSE's in the next upcoming months and
was struggling coping with the stress, the stress of his
exams, and the upset of him being bullied was too
overwhelming and he lost his mind. He then goes
out and kills the people that ruined his life.

• Lots of conventions of horror e.g. Blood and Gory
scenes
• Mysterious plot

19. Who we would like to be
in our film

Jesse Plemons as he played a great role as a bully
in the film ‘Like Mike’ although he is too old now, to
play a 16 year old boy in our film.
20. Who we want our director
to be.
• James Cameron is one of the best directors in the
world and has directed some amazing films,
