Script for film trailer


EXT. DESOLATE FIELD


The field is full of dying plants, and there are no signs of life.


EXT. OF HOUSE


We see footsteps walking towards the entrance. These footsteps are DANNY’s.


INT. OF HOUSE, HALLWAY


The audience feels welcomed by the post reading “A house is a house, a family makes it a home”


INT. OF HOUSE, CONSERVATORY


DANNY and ALEX are sat down on the sofa.


DANNY

Hey, how was your day?


ALEX

Not bad, how was yours?


DANNY

Yeah, mine was good. Did anyone ring today?


ALEX

Yeah, Ryan did actually. He’s found a box that’s got some weird carvings in. He’s a bit worried about it, so he’s coming over later to see if we can try and open it.


DANNY

(intrigued) Aah…


RYAN enters the house and walks through into the conservatory


RYAN

Look, er…sorry if this is a bad time or owt, but, I bought this box at a market and…I don’t know, something’s odd about it. (shows box to DANNY and ALEX) I thought you guys might be interested. (he slams the box down at the table)


DANNY

Aah, well it looks cool, I’ll take it from your hands.


INT. OF HOUSE, KITCHEN


DANNY and ALEX are sat at the dinner table. DANNY is holding the box.


DANNY

Well this looks safe. (shakes it) Whoever made this doesn’t want us to look inside. You know (swiftly moves box aside) on second thoughts, I don’t want this.


ALEX

Give me it! I’ll have it! (ALEX takes the box and plays with it)


INT. OF HOUSE, LIVING ROOM


ALEX is sat on the sofa. She proceeds to open the box and take out the bracelets. She looks inside and takes out a pencil.


Some time passes. RYAN and DANNY are now positioned on the other end of the sofa.


DANNY

Hey, you haven’t happened to notice anything strange with Alex, have you?


RYAN

No, why?


DANNY

She seems to be acting quite weird ever since she got that box.


RYAN

Well, er… that’s weird.


DANNY and ALEX are later sat at the dinner table, eating a meal.


DANNY

What’s so important about that box?


ALEX

(frustrated) Nothing! (she scrapes her knife across her plate)


DANNY

Okay, stop it, you’re acting really weird.


ALEX stabs her food with her fork. DANNY slams his hand in frustration. ALEX proceeds to stab it with her knife. The camera cuts before it hits him.


DANNY is later back in the living room. He is researching Dibbuk.


DANNY

(Reading from laptop screen) “A Dibbuk is a malicious spirit of the dead that possesses the living”?


INT. OF HOUSE, BEDROOM. ALEX is sat on the bed, drawing something on a sheet of paper with the pencil from the box.


ALEX

(possessed) People suffering, people dying…


DANNY enters the room


DANNY

Alex?


ALEX

For whom the bell tolls, (turns to face DANNY) it tolls for thee.


INT. OF HOUSE, CONSERVATORY.


RYAN and DANNY are sat at the sofa


RYAN

(Firmly) Look, an exorcism must be performed tonight, or else it’ll just get worse.


DANNY

Yeah, I agree


INT. OF HOUSE, STAIRWAY


ALEX is seen walking across the stairway. She stops to look down at the stairs.


DANNY

Alex? Something wrong?


RYAN

Alex, you okay?


ALEX leers towards the camera


DANNY
Ryan, help…Alex, I love you, please don’t hurt me…
