The Delivery

Movie Pitch

Sub-genreThriller is a sub- genre that revolves around anticipation and suspense. The aim for Thrillers is to keep the audience alert and on the edge of their seats. The protagonist in these films is set against a problem – an escape, a mission, or a mystery. No matter what sub-genre a Thriller film falls into, it will emphasize the danger that the protagonist faces. The tension with the main problem is built on throughout the film and leads to a highly stressful climax.

Antagonist & protagonist • The antagonist will be one particular blonde, innocent (virgin, does

not take drugs) out of the four teenage girls.

• The protagonist will be an middle aged man, who's identity changes throughout; pizza delivery man with hat to a masked killer.

Films that have influenced the idea• When researching different thriller films I cam across four which I took

ideas from; ‘Prom night’, You’re next’, ‘Final girl and ‘Would you rather’. They are all quite modern; 2000’s. • All fours films have similar aspects where the antagonist are chased

and tortured, however some have twists to make the story more interesting, which I hope to succeed. • The idea of having a masked killer was from the film ‘You’re next’ • Being chased through the woods was from ‘Final girl’. Four male killers

chase one girl, however I wanted to keep it original by having one male killer as it is more threating if the teenage girls are afraid of him.

‘Prom night’ • ‘Final girl’; blonde teenager.• Protagonist; middle aged man, teacher, new hidden identity. • Icons; knife.• Locations; under bed, house, wardrobe, mirror, prom hall, elevator, abandoned basement area. • Events of murders; killer finally unwraveled.
