First Two Minutes of Chosen Idea in Exact Detail - Horror


   Alexandra is running through the woods at night from an unknown entity. She is wearing casual clothes and “surprisingly” suitable shoes for running. She stops suddenly, feeling a hand on her back and spins round. To her relief, her best friend, Samantha, is stood there, at first smiling but her look turns grim. Alexandra then screams and begins to run again as blood begins to pour from her friend’s mouth and she collapses to the floor with a knife in the centre of her back.
   As she is running for her life, she glances to her right and sees a cloaked figure running along side her on the other side of the trees.
   Once home Alexandra finds her mother lying on the floor face down in the living room, a knife, again, in the centre of her back, blood about the room. Alexandra notices a smeared hand print across the mirror, she gasps. Terrified, she runs upstairs to her bedroom, dives on her bed, throwing the cover over her head (covers over the camera). (Screen is black showing the main title).
   An alarm sounds (light fills the screen instantly), Alexandra sits up in bed, panicked and sweaty. She turns off her alarm, the camera holds the shot of the bedside table with the alarm clock, a lamp and a picture of Amanda on it. She checks round her to make sure she is alone.
   She wanders downstairs, finding her mother in the kitchen, happy and unaware or the horrors her daughter had faced during the night. She gets herself some toast and spreads on some butter, then disappears back upstairs to get ready for college.
   She goes through the motions of her day; (school day in 20 seconds, short clips) goes to school, three lessons – she tells her friends about her dream that night – and then goes home - but a figure blocks her path as she is taking a shortcut. She remains calm, continuing to approach the figure, who doesn’t move.
   As she passes, a hand reaches out and grabs her wrist.
