Our Characters/Actors.

Hollie Bowden as Emily.
Emily is the fearless one. She is the one that suggests going into the Theatre in the first place. Nothing scares Emily and she is very outgoing. Emily is the lead character and the remaining girl in the end. This is a convention used in Horror movies which we have decided to repeat. 
We thought Hollie Bowden would play Emily very well as she has the tough, fearless and strong look that we imagined Emily to have. 

In terms of research, the character Emily is similar to any remaining girl in Horror movies, such as Sidney in 'Scream'. She is the one that fights her way to the end, just like Emily does.






Joey Jarossi as Jacob.

Jacob is the unusual one. He is smart and quite afraid. This character is one often used in Horror films. In our film, the twist is that Jacob is also the killer. This seems very unlikely due to him being very scared at the beginning and seeming very vulnerable. 
Joey Jarossi (my partner) would play this character very well as he is very intelligent and can give off the perfect atmosphere. Joey has a  good looking, different look that emphasises how smart he is and also how he can be quite a freaky character. 

This character is similar to Damien in 'The Omen' as he is a strange boy and as time goes on he is revealed as the bad guy.
This character is also a masked killer, which is a convention used in horror movies frequently. 


Kyle Lo Monaco as Morgan.
Morgan is seen as the popular, good looking, typical "jock" character. He is the brightest character but everyone wants to be friends with him. Morgan is not scared and has a slight power over other characters. This kind of character normally goes out with the typical "popular" superficial girl which is why Morgan is the boyfriend of Vanessa.
We thought Kyle had the perfect look. He is good looking, athletic and stylish and we believe he can make Morgan exactly how we picture him. Kyle can easily play a ladies man and a caring boyfriend.


The character Morgan is similar to Carter in 'Final Destination' as he is the typical boyfriend.



Jessica Stevenson (Me) as Vanessa.


Vanessa is the typical popular girl in all horror movies. She is the one that is not the smartest out of all the characters and has very little knowledge of what is going on until the worst happens. Vanessa is very focused on her image and mainly on her boyfriend, Morgan. We thought I would be able to play this character well as I can show my affection. We also wanted to challenge the normal horror movie convention of having a beautiful blonde girl and use someone who was not conventionally pretty with red hair.

Vanessa's character is very similar to Terry in 'Final Destination' as she is the typical girlfriend to Carter, whom Morgan's character resembles.
