2. FADE IN:
“Orange Llama Films” appears on screen, in time with the
music.
EXT. FAMILY HOME - EVENING
Shot tracks from left to right slowly as we view the
house. We see upstairs lights going out.
Steadicam shot going through gates and past the cars that
are parked up on the driveway.
INT. LIVING ROOM
Family are all sat in the living room watching television
together. Camera pans around them engrossed in the
television, all looking somewhat amused. Every now and
then the camera switches from the pans, to the living
room CCTV footage. With text on screen displaying “Camera
1 - 7:08pm”
AS THEY ARE WATCHING, CHARLIE
HEARS A NOISE FROM UPSTAIRS;
CHARLIE:
What was that?
MUM LOOKS AT CHARLIE, THEN UP,
AND THEN BACK AT CHARLIE
MUM:
What was wha-
MUM IS INTERRUPTED BY THE
CREAKING OF A FLOORBOARD FROM
UPSTAIRS
CHARLIE:
That?
MUM IS SPEECHLESS AND LOOKS
AROUND THE ROOM
We see different CCTV shots of the rooms in the house.
The house is empty, however in one of the room we see an
inconspicuous shadow.
CHARLIE opens up his phone and opens the camera and
clicks record. As weird noises are heard, he starts edges
towards the living room door to go upstairs.
3. .2
INT. HALLWAY
He walks towards the staircase, he shines his mobile
phone LED light up the stairs and slowly walks up the
stairs.
INT. BEDROOM
CHARLIE searches the dark, shadow filled bedroom. He
looks behind corners, curtains, and yet finds nothing.
The whole time, we hear the sounds of his racing heart,
and fast paced breathing. He uses the flashlight to find
the door and leave the room back onto the hallway, in
which he enters the bathroom.
INT. BATHROOM
CHARLIE looks around the bathroom in the dark, as he is
too scared to turn the lights on. We see very little,
except from shadows and silhouette. CHARLIE turns around
to leave the bathroom. When he is about to leave the
room, a dark figure moves quickly behind him; he turns
around, sees nothing, and turns around to leave again,
and he sees the MURDERER and runs away
INT. LANDING
CHARLIE:
“What the fu-“
Murderer walks swiftly towards charlie and laughs while
speaking
MURDERER:
“Where do you think you’re
going..”
CHARLIE runs past the MURDERER and runs down the stairs.
Steadicam follows him downstairs.
INT. HALLWAY
CHARLIE grabs the bottom handrail, runs for the living
room door, and knocks his foot against the doorframe and
falls over.
4. .3
The MURDERER tries to grab CHARLIES foot as he attempts
to escape into the kitchen. CHARLIE claws against the
pulls of the MURDERER. Low angle shot of CHARLIE being
pulled towards the MURDERER. The MURDERER slips from his
grip of CHARLIE, meaning he can get up on his feet and
run further into the kitchen.
INT. KITCHEN
CHARLIE runs further into the kitchen and unwisely shuts
the door behind him (as if doing so would protect him any
further). He runs towards the kitchen counter at the end
of the kitchen with all of the knives in the drawer. When
he grabs on and turns around, he sees the MURDERER right
behind him.
CHARLIE:
“What the..aargh!”
CHARLIE pushes he MURDERER out of the way and runs past
him and gets to the kitchen door. He finds it locked
CHARLIE:
“How you even doing this!?”
CHARLIE hits the door out of frustration
CHARLIE:
“FFFFu..ughhhh”
INT. DINING ROOM
CHARLIE runs towards the other doorway into the dining
room in an attempt to escape the MURDERER. He runs
towards the door, and just about gets through, and
manages to get through the dining room, managing to trip
over the dining chair along the way.
INT. HALLWAY
CHARLIE thinks about where he should go to escape the
MURDERER. He sees the door to the porch and runs towards
it and tries the locks, to find they are locked.
CHARLIE:
WITH AN ANTI-CLIMATIC TONE TO HIS
VOICE, HE SAYS
“I’m trapped..I’m stuck here”
5. .4
He slumps against the wall and onto the floor and admits
defeat to himself. He then realises he is next to a
cupboard with the house keys stored in the drawer. He
gets up, pulls the drawer open, and grabs the keys.
Unlocks himself out of the house and starts to run away.
EXT. DRIVEWAY
As he gets off the driveway and goes to run, he looks
into the lounge bay window and sees the MURDERER entering
the room as the family cower in the corner, clutched into
each others arms. He sighs heavily, and runs back.
INT. LIVING ROOM
He runs into the house, through the door he came through.
He runs through the hallway, and into the front room.
CHARLIE:
“Oh god get off of them!”
MURDERER:
“And why would I do that kid..?”
The MURDERER raises a knife from his side pocket and goes
to stab the MOTHER in the stomach. As the knife starts to
penetrate her skin, the camera switches to a close up of
the MOTHERS face as he watches the life drop out of her.
CHARLIE:
“You’re gonna pay for that”
The MURDERER turns round, faces CHARLIE, looking amused.
MURDERER:
“And how do you intend to do that
exactly?”
CHARLIE looks through the murderers mask with an ominous
look on his face kicks him to the floor. He grabs the
knife he dropped earlier and points it at him
CHARLIE:
“Yeah…thats how I intend to do
(gestures speech marks) that.”
The MURDERER looks at CHARLIE in silence. Meanwhile, the
FATHER is sneaking closer and closer to the MURDERER as
CHARLIE distracts him. CHARLIE goes to stab the MURDERER,
however, he very quickly moves out of the way, meaning
CHARLIE ends up stabbing his own FATHER.
THE MURDERER LAUGHS AND TURNS
AROUND TO CHARLIE
6. .5
MURDERER:
“You should’ve just run. He
would’ve been dead at my hands.
But now your the murderer.”
THE MURDERER LOOKS AWAY, AND BACK
TO CHARLIE AND LAUGHS EVEN MORE
CHARLIE:
“Why are you even doing this?!”
MURDERER:
“What else?…sport.”
CHARLIE:
“You’re a monster”
MURDERER LOOKS UP FOR A SECOND,
MOMENTARILY CHUCKLES TO HIMSELF,
AND LOOKS BACK AT CHARLIE
MURDERER:
“Yes. Yes I am.”
THE MURDERER SMILES AT CHARLIE
SARCASTICALLY
CHARLIE edges away from the MURDERER; as he is intensely
frightened of him.
MURDERER:
“Going somewhere..?”
CHARLIE hastily turns himself around and goes to escape
through the living room door. He runs through the
kitchen, pushes away clothes racks and pushes the door
handle to enter the garden
EXT. GARDEN
He then begins to realise that he is most probably
trapped; he looks around for a fence or wall he can climb
over to escape. He sees a 6 foot tall slightly decayed
brick wall and attempts to clamber onto it.
CHARLIE CLIMBS A FEW BRICKS UP
AND SLIPS
CHARLIE:
“Oh fu-“
MURDERER:
“You thought you could escape me…
and in a garden? Ha!”
7. .6
CHARLIE drops to the floor and looks up at the MURDERER.
The murder towers over him, and we see this via a POV
shot of CHARLIE.
MURDERER:
“You really really should have run
shouldn’t you. Fool”
CHARLIE:
“I wanted to save my family”
MURDERER:
“Shame..you ended up killing them
in a shorter amount of time than I
would have done it in”
CHARLIE gives a look of disgust to the MURDERER, as the
MURDERER picks a fresh knife out of his pocket and slowly
drags it across his stomach, all the way up to his neck.
MURDERER:
“Well..wasn’t this fun?”
CHARLIE:
“You’ll be caught..you know you
will. We have CCTV cameras all
over the house!”
MURDERER:
“Yes. You do. It’s just.. a
massive shame I deactivated them
all while I was in your house
isn’t it”
INT. OFFICE
We are presented with a flashback to the MURDERER
clicking away at a laptop, to view the CCTV footage. We
see him clicking the “End Recording” button on his
screen. We see some of the CCTV footage, with the
watermarks switching from “Recording” to “Recording
Disabled”
EXT. GARDEN
CHARLIE looks at the MURDERER with an even higher level
of hatred; just as the MURDERER clenches his fist around
the knife, and pushes it into his neck. We cut away to a
close up of CHARLIES face just as he is murdered.
FADE OUT
