'Screamday Party'/'Knife Party'
SYNOPSIS
A female gets revenge on two guys who raped her in a forest many years ago by killing them at a birthday party. She also kills the rapists' girlfriends for loving them and being together with them.
FILM INFLUENCES
Jennifer's Body:
There is a female killer who kills boys because she was possessed by a demon. She lures them in with her flirty, sexy way of being and her looks, then she kills them alone somewhere. The idea of the victims being males is where I got some inspiration from.
Friday the 13th Remake:
The entire film opening of this is very similar to what I want to put in my film opening (a chase scene in a forest of a girl running away from two guys who are rapists). The idea of cross cutting between shots of titles and the chase scene is what I want to incorporate in my film opening at the very start.
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo:
I got the idea of a girl getting revenge on men who treat women badly from this film. Lisabeth Salander (the main protagonist) works with a male journalist to solve the many murders of some women who were also raped by their killer. I mainly took the idea of a woman having revenge on men for treating women the way they do (as lesser, as below them). I wanted that to be the main message of my film opening, that women aren't lesser than men, but that they can also be killers and overpower/dominate men the way men do to women; I wanted to go against the norms of the slasher genre where the killer is always a man and the victims are always busty, topless, sexually active women. I also decided to change the final girl into a final boy.

WITHIN THE ALLOWED 2 MINUTES - THE DETAILS
There will be use of cross-cutting within the rape chase scene - between the flashback of the rape scene and the present killing scene.
Rape scene: This scene will be set back in time by a year or so, therefore I will signify this through a black and white colouring effect. There will be a girl running away from two guys chasing her in a forest. So, there will be fast action cuts, shakily camera movements and loud, suspenseful, action sound effects. Eventually when the guys catch up to her they push her down and you see close up shots/mid shots of them unbuttoning her jeans, pulling her jeans down, pulling up her shirt a bit and pulling down her bra straps. Then, finally you will see one of the guys putting a bag over her head and that would be a fade to black - this would resemble the sight of the girl being raped. Titles will be placed in between this whole scene to nicely cut suspenseful, action scenes into smaller scenes. The way that I will produce this entire scene will be quite similar to the film opening in Friday the 13th Remake, where there are cross cuts between flashback scenes from the ending of the original film Friday the 13th and titles cutting these scenes up to create more suspense.
Party scene:
There will be a house birthday party that a lot of school students are at, then the two rapists (scream kings - Wyatt and Alex E) with their girlfriends (scream queens - Aubrey and Orla) arrive at the party. Also, with them there will be another guy who is respectable, kind and a bit nerdy (final boy - Richard).
Lair scene:
There will be tools, blood, knives, meat, worktops, clinical tiled floor, dirt and plastic sheeting in this setting (the lair). Also in a corner of the room there will be someone tied up with ropes (e.g. wrists tied together behind back and knees tied together). In this scene the female killer will come walking down the stairs, with the sound of high heels coming down the stairs and you will see over the shoulder shots of the wall in the lair that is covered with photographs of victims the killer has killed and wants to kill. The audience will also see shots of the killer hooded, with black leather gloves on, slicing some meat harshly. With every slice/hit of the meat there will be a thud sound that is scary and loud. After the killer has killed the victim in the corner, the audience will see an over the shoulder shot of the female killer marking a large cross on one of the photographs on the wall (of Alex E).
