Our initial horror film ideas

Plot of Film

- A cursed book is delivered to a house. Every Occupant that ever lives in this house becomes cursed. They begin to see ghosts and strange things begin to occur. The author of the book is the ghost and they all eventually die, as the ghost/author is taking revenge on the house.

The Production Company

We came up with the idea of 'Big Scream Productions'. We chose this because it relates to the 'big screen' as it connotes media/hollywood. However we used this as a play on words to come up with scream instead. This relates to the idea of the horror genre.

Title of Film

We came up with a few ideas for our film. These were: -
  • Squattors rights. This could be because the author of the book sees the house as his and therefore everyone who lives in the house afterwards is seen as squatting and therefore takes revenge on them.
  • Household vengeance. This could also be appropriate for our film as it again relates to the author having a hatred towards the house and is therefore taking it out on the occupants.
  • Elimination. This would be an appropriate film title as it connotes getting rid of, therefore implying death which is common in a horror film.
  • Provoked Removal. The word 'provoked' suggests that the author is making them rise to his challenge of the book and is therefore removing them from "his" house.
  • Chapter 4. This title provides the element of mystery and also relates to a book as they have chapters. This could also suggest that at Chapter 4 in the book something bad happens in that chapter of the film.
