Using the popular saying 'turning a blind eye' we expanded forming an idea relating to the horror genre.

 

SYNOPSIS

 

Our idea is a horror movie depicting a serial killer who tortures their victims, gouging their eyes out and preserving them in jars before mailing them to the authorities.

 

The serial killer was abused as a child and the police and law never stepped in to put a stop to the situation. The killer mails the eyes mocking the polices inability to catch them.

 

The killer abducts police officer 'Terri'and tortures her. Meanwhile her sister attempts to find and rescue her.

 

We moulded our story to fit Todorov's Theory

 

Stage A - Equilibrium is established in film and characters are introduced

The off duty police officer, Terri is in her house livingroom watching television alone. Television shows a news report from the latest in a line of murders of officers in her area. The news shows the serial killer was abducting people and torturing them. Mailing the police the remains of the victims, thereby mocking their in action.Terri looks woried. As report finishes lights flicker out 

 

Stage B - Disruption of equilibrium via problem or event

Stage D – attempt to repair damage of disruption and the problem is solved
