- Two teenage girls named Jenifer and Annie have fallen out.
- Jenifer feels as though she is being watched, this has been going on for weeks.
- Jenifer and Annie have another argument (at Annie’s house) and Jenifer storms home.
- On the way home Jenifer feels she is being watched/ followed.
- As she reaches a short cut home she bumps into someone and becomes extremely distressed.
- She finds that she had only bumped into Annie and feels immediately comforted- even though they had just argued.
- Jenifer suddenly realises that Annie is acting very strangely and gets worried.
- Events lead up to Annie acting violently towards Jenifer, causing Jenifer to black out.
- Jenifer wakes up in Annie’s bedroom bound to the bed, unable to move while Annie is finishing cutting out pictures for a shrine to Jenifer.
After the opening of the thriller the rest of the plot would be based on Jenifer being held captive and her plight for freedom. The film is supposed to show that you cannot trust anyone and even a safe place can be deceiving. The twist would be that Jenifer manages to escape after years of being abused and neglected and seeks revenge on Annie. I think this would be interesting as it avoids stereotypes and uses a female criminal (femme fatale) rather than the usual male.
Some interesting ideas but I'm not sure how plausible they are. Two girls in some fatal quarrel is quite difficult to achieve. Students have used this sort of idea before and it's never quite come off!
ReplyDeleteLook at the end of "Heavenly Creatures" on Youtube click the clip titled "clubbed to death" The film is based on a true story about 2 New Zealand school girls who killed the mother of one of the girls.
