Hi all,

I watched this for the first time last night and have to say I really enjoyed it. Not really scary but some great tension throughout and characters you can really invest in, which isn't too common for the genre.

I'm searched SS and the web, just wondering if anyone has a copy of the script?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry Warren, can't help with the script but I enjoyed the film too, well made and some great imagery.

Really surprised me. I want to see how they wrote those super intense scenes. I was on edge.

I don't know if this is the right one, and it's transcript only, but worth a try, so...

Thanks Libby,

That's all I could find as well. It's definitely not ideal. Worst case scenario, I will sift through it but hopefully someone has it floating around.

Had a closer look at this and it’s literally just a transcript of all the spoken dialogue and the lyrics to the songs, oddly enough.

I’m specifically after a couple of scenes in the film that I thought were intense AF. I'd like to see what they look like on paper.

Thanks again.

Warren - I've just messaged the film via their FB page, will let you know if I get a positive response.

If you've not seen it I can also recommend the Writer/Directors other film The Loved Ones, very good too!

Thanks so much for that Anthony, very much appreciated.

I have seen The Loved Ones, wasn’t quiet as impressed with that one. I will be interested to see what he comes up with next though, if anything.

He seems to take relatively big gaps between films, shame.

Horror fan here, if it's done well.

The trailer doesn't look like much chop imh.

It's that good? Where'd you watch this? Netflix?

Well I thought it was great, really enjoyed it. The ending left a bit to be desired, but it doesn't take away from it in my opinion.

I got a copy off a mate.

And Anthony rates it.

If I can find it I'll definitely give it a whirl.
Thanks for the recommendation.

Warren, if ever you're looking for something, putting a call out for scripts etc., here's the link:

Thanks, I had a look for a looking for section, must have gone straight past it.

Libby - saw it on a streaming service called Shudder, not sure if you have that?
Posted by: LC, May 4th, 2018, 2:50am; Reply: 14
Thanks Anthony. :)

Shudder? Must be a UK thing?
I'll see if either title are available on Netflix or Stan.

Yeah, don't think Shudder is everywhere yet, think UK and US maybe... They've recently added it as an option in Amazon over here, but again that could be just here.
