Full Film Idea


With a horror genre, it is obvious that the film idea that I propose will have some typical conventions of a horror. Within horror, however, there are also many sub genres including, gore, psychological, thriller and supernatural, thought with my concept, it would be best to go with a psychological horror.
The idea is based around a group of teenagers, and mainly focuses on a girl called Kelly. She is unaware that she is in fact being stalked, by a quiet character, James. It is not until he gets hold of her number after constantly stalking her and waiting outside her house day and night, that she becomes aware of his presence and alerts her friend, Jess. The two girls think that it would be a good idea to lead the stalker on, and text him, asking him to come to Kelly’s house, though, to their surprise, he is already there. In order to then scare him off, the girls call him various names, and soon slam the door in his face, which, of course was the wrong move. This angers him further, and drives him to get his revenge to illuminate what he thinks is corrupting Kelly from seeing that he is her true love.
James sets out plans to kill off Jess, first, since she proposed that he is a stalker. He successfully does this, though to his surprise this does not bring Kelly any closer to him; which drives his anger further. Whilst this is occurring, Kelly looks for comfort in her boyfriend, after the traumatic events of finding out that she has a stalker, though to her surprise, Nathan isn’t the most understanding. After finding texts on her phone where she tells James to come over, Nathan feels that he has been cheated, and goes out to find James himself. This of course, is the perfect opportunity for James to illuminate another of Kelly’s corruptors.
This then leads Kelly to being totally isolated, and therefore seeks comfort in the only person possible; James. Although she is unaware that he is the murdered, the clues finally start to piece together and she starts piecing the puzzle together. After finding a shrine devoted to her along with several of Jess, Nathan and her own belongings, it is up to Kelly to kill James before he in fact kills her.
This film idea uses the idea within Strauss’ theory of binary oppositions, and focuses mainly on good vs evil.
