GROUP: Updated and final Treatment:
Our film is a horror / thriller hybrid set in the 1990’s, with our main character in the opening sequence being the antagonist, a mentally unstable man in his mid-20's, who is part of a small, psychotic, secret religious group who organise killings of people who have committed sins based on the ten commandments, their symbol is presented throughout the sequence providing visual links to the organisation. The opening sequence will include him killing a young woman by a street lamp on a dark road, leaving several religious symbols as a mark of his organisation. There will be a shot of the antagonist standing over the dead body, his identity is sealed as his face is obscured by the minimal lighting and shadow cast over his face. The woman is a symbol of light whilst the antagonist is represented as dark and domineering.              
The title sequence will follow with several macro shots with motion tracked titles to objects along the antagonists work station. Maps and enigmatic objects will be shown, revealing some of the plans and previous attacks from the clan. It will show previous and planned murders, and snapshots of the victims will be put in envelopes by the murderer, these will be addressed to the police and will specify the commandment that the victim had disobeyed. In the opening sequence, the commandment that has been disobeyed will be “I am the lord, your God, you shall put no other Gods before me”.
