Horror Movie Initial Ideas - P1.

Initial Ideas.

So for our initial ideas we had multiple simple ideas that came into play. First one of the ideas was to base the movie in a school, with a plot based in this too. This was an idea by myself based on A Nightmare On Elm Street, where the caretaker goes crazy and attempts to kill the children, this idea is similar to the movie because Freddy Krueger was a caretaker that takes revenge on children that he cared for. I believe this would work because changing the setting will take a large amount of time trying to make the area not look like a school is also really hard. 

Another one of our intial ideas is based on the main idea we already got now, this is with me as Simon in an abandoned mental asylum but I die on screen with blood spitting out of my mouth, I requested for this to be changed because this is firstly an overkilled opening, plus that means I will need to hold a considerable amount of fake blood in my mouth without showing any of it before I die. Also this may take a large amount of shoots and will be bad to me as a person because fake blood will have to be made with syrup, flour and red food colouring, this would be very thick and sugary and will therefore affect me badly.

Now our original idea is where I am in a an abandoned asylum as a journalist, I look around taking notes and soon get killed by spirits. This is followed up by the friends finding out that he's missing. They go looking for him and are picked off one by one.
