Final Group Idea

Genre - Horror/Thriller

Setting - Party, house, a quiet town

 

The film opens in a dream sequence featuring two girls. One girl convinces her friend to try drugs however she is reacts very badly to them. She throws up and subsequently passes out.

The first girl awakes from the nightmare to face a relatively normal day. However, the sense of reality diminishes when sees the ghostly figure of her friend with blood running from her nose.
 

Throughout the film, her nightmares and ghostly visits become predominantly more vivid and terrifying. However, she does not tell anyone about what happened that night as she maintains that she only found her friend and she had nothing to do with her death. Police have ruled that the death included no foul play and she died of a cocaine and alcohol overdose. Her friend's reputation is tarnished and family is distraught by her death. The dawning realisation of what she did and saw that night becomes more and more intense.

She distances herself from everybody, even her closest relatives and family. She analyses every small detail of the death. It consumes her. She becomes a complete recluse. Her personal relationships become incredibly strained. The steady progression into madness leads the people around her to think that she was involved with her friend’s passing. She is sent for questioning by her worried parents and friends.  However after asking her numerous questions about the night, the police believe that it is not suitable to interrogate her anymore as she does not seem at all responsible and suffering from anxiety.

One night though, she has the most intense nightmare about that night. It is a clear flashback of the events of that night. She wakes up and hallucinates that her friend is hanging over her, demanding that she tell everyone.

After maintaining her innocence for so long, she admits to friends and family exactly what she knows.
