Impression Script

Broken Glass Productions

A man searching for his dog on the beach comes across the murder victim (Tyler)

Paul: (shouting) Buster? Buster!? Whistles (walks towards the dead body)

Camera shows a figure on the ground. Paul walks swiftly towards the figure. Camera pans down slowly as Paul gets closer to the figure to reveal it being a dead body.

White out then fade back to the police investigating the scene

Lee: Any details?

Officer 1: Early 20’s, throat has been sliced, no signs of struggle, been dead around 4 – 5 hours. Detectives are being lead over to the body

Eric: You got a name?

Officer 1: The vic’s been ID’d as Maia Fort. I’ve sent some of our officers to talk to the family.

Lee crouches down to inspect the body

Lee: Clean cut to the throat…

Eric: Died in a matter of seconds’ walks off to investigate the scene

Lee: Yeah… and it looks professional. Very clean… He knows what he’s doing. Turns to the officerFound any sort of evidence?

Officer 1: We’ve scoured the place, nothing.

Eric: (off shot) So your boys didn’t find this?

Low angle camera shot showing Eric looking at the newly discovered evidence. Lee and the officer walk into frame.

Officer 1: Uh… no… What is that?

Cut to sticks layed out to spell out “Jack did it”

Lee: Who’s Jack?

Eric: I dunno… We should get this back to the lab for prints.

Officer takes a picture of the evidence and then the scene changes to an office room. The detectives are there, looking at a board with photographs of other murders, looking tired, coffee on the table, ties loosened and hair roughed up.

Lee: It could be possible that they’re connected?

Eric: Yeah sure, they’re all dead, well done. Gold star for Lee.

Lee: No listen, our first victim was Elaine Forrest. She was bound, tortured then strangled in her own home, right?

Eric nods but still looks puzzled

Lee: That kill closely follows the MO of BTK. Our second victim, Jayce Yun, was found in an abandoned building with evidence of mutilation, rape and possible cannibalism.

Eric: Yeah I remember, he had his toes bit off lightly chuckles

Lee: I don’t understand what’s so funny but this kill follows that of Jeffery Dahmer. You starting to see a pattern here?

Eric: Okay so they’re both in their 20’s? We have a part of a profile? No wait there’s the little girl, Laura Maine…

Lee: Disappeared last year then turns up in the woods, raped and been a victim to cannibalism.

Eric: That doesn’t fit…

Lee: In fact, it fits perfectly. He’s recreating kills from infamous serial killers. BTK, Jeffery Dahmer and-

Eric: Albert Fish! Eric looks proud with his input

Lee: And now, Jack the Ripper.

Eric: Maia must’ve been some sort of call girl

Cuts to a re-enactment of the events leading to Maia’s death

Lee: Picked up by a client, that explains why there’s no signs of struggle, it’s routine to go to a secluded area for this kind of thing.

Eric: Ah yes, you being the expert on hookers

Lee: I watch documentaries, sometimes this kind of thing comes up, that hardly makes me an expert on picking up prostitutes… Back to the point, we’ve got a copycat killer.

This is the film's props and equipment list. We made this just to keep a checklist of everything we need in the film and so that we could tick off the items that we already had.
