Five

Storyline of FIVE A man is taking revenge on the fact that his wife has been murdered. He is quite a spiritual man, not Christian but weird rituals. He has a ritual that he wants to perform, to regain his wife and the only way it can work is if he uses victims that resemble his wife. It takes him a year to collect his four victims. Meanwhile the daughter is witnessing all these women being taken away and then never seeing them again. On the fourth victim she plucks up the courage to go down to the basement where she has been told not to go, she then hears screams and other terrifying sounds. When the time comes for the fifth and final victim the ritual says it must be the family blood of the man. Unfortunately the man has turned completely delusional and the only person he then sees that has his family blood and reminds him of his wife is his only daughter. The ritual doesn’t end up working because the daughter isn’t actually his! His wife had an affair and the daughter was from that relationship, unbeknown to the man.The opening sequenceI’d like to have three close ups ofThe man’s hand, drawing the chalk circle.The woman’s face, with a tatty blindfold on.Bird’s eye view of the circle with the star inside.She becomes curious, peers around the top of the stairs, she starts quietly walking down the stairs to the basement door. When she gets there she gently pushes the door and it swings open, she can’t see anything inside because it is so dark. She steps in, and sees pools of blood at each point of the star, except the top point. In the far corner there is a body. White tunic dress and a tatty bit of material around her eyes. There are heavy footsteps coming down the stairs, she runs and crouches in the corner. The steps stop by the door; there is a silhouette of the man in the doorway. The heartbeat of the girl can be heard and with each beat there is a flash of the circle with a girl lying at one of the points, and at the next heartbeat there is another girl at a different point. Without another sound the man is leaning over the girl. He lifts his arm holding a knife, and then there is a long scream.


The stroy is set in 1963 in the American countryside. A 52 year old American man, Ryan, who needs to seek revenge of the murder of his wife. His wife, Suzy was a lot younger than him, she was 29 at the time of her murder, aslo an American. She was murdered by the wife of the man she had an affair with. Ryan was quite a spiritual man, not Christian, but Black Magic. He has as ritual that he wants to perform to regain his wife, and the only way it can work is if he uses victims that resemble his wife. It takes him a year to collect his four victims He chose them as they all had diffferent characteristics to his wife. His four vitctims were Ella, Estelle, Caroline and Harriot. Mean while, the daughter is witnessing all of these women being taken away and never seen again. On the fourth victim she plucks up the courage to go down to the basement were she has been told not to go, she then hears screams and other terrifying sounds. When the time comes for the fifth and final victim the ritual says it must be the family bloody of the man. Unfortunately Ryan has turned completely dilusional and the only person he then sees that has his family blood and reminds him of his wife is his only daughter.
