Original Idea Concepts & Links

As written by Louis;
A Woman lives alone in a big house; she spent all her childhood in care and suffered from many behavioural disorders. At a young age her carers had her aggression and anger removed by a ‘spiritualist’. Now that she is a reformed member of society she finds her inner child has returned in the form of a dark menacing demon girl, stalking the halls of her house.

Our film concept is about a little girl who spent her childhood in care. This girl suffered from many behavioural disorders which made her extremely aggressive and angry. Because of this she spent a lot of time in solitary confinement while the carers tried to deal with these issues. Eventually the care-home decide their only option is to use a local self proclaimed 'spiritualist' to banish the aggression within her so that she can live an ordinary life.

The experiment that is performed on her worked and she is now much older and has been allowed to move into the house that she occasionally went to to visit her parents. Her parents have since died and she is now living peacefully in her new home, establishing a new life.

However, not long after she has been in the house she begins to see strange things happen in her house and eventually an apparition of a small girl appears in her house. This girl is extremely volatile and is uncontrollably aggressive. In one confrontation she realises that the little girl is in fact her back when she was in care, with all the anger and hatred that was taken out of her in that stage of her life. The woman accepts that she cannot escape her inner child and tries to escape but the girl won't let her get away.

PLOT UPDATE: As updated by Louis;
Our initial concept of the film has had to be changed due to casting issues. Because we are unable to find a younger girl to play our main characters inner child we have decided to change the idea as such:

-The confinement cell the main character was in as a child is posessed by a demon.
-Once someone leaves the cell they soon die within their own home of unknown causes
-Every new person to leave the cell has been haunted by the posessed spirits of those to die before.
-The main character experiences poltergeist activity and sees aparitions of the past spirits in her home.
-She loses her certainty within her own home and hides in her room that changes back into the cell. She is never seen again but the ending scene shows her in the cell with all those who had been in it before, and she is dead too.

We have easily adapted our storyline to suit our storyboarding and shot concepts. Although we will have to work some more to decide what characters will be using, it will not change our idea much so we can still do everything we have already intended to do.


As written by Adam;
Our idea could be linked to Paranormal Activity 2 as this is based around a a young girl and hauntings and ghosts etc. We are not sure how similar we should make our trailer to that of Paranormal Activity 2 as the shots are fairly long and instead of going for shot shots with blood and gore and monsters, they've gone for the dark or light colours inside a house at night time where hauntings are visible. Below is the paranormal activity trailer.
