Halloween H20 Page #16

Keri nuzzles her head against Will's chest...

WILL:

(continuing)

So you're really Michael Meyers'

sister?

KERI:

Yeah.

WILL:

Do we have to invite him to the

wedding?

Keri laughs, more out of relief than anything...

CUT TO:

EXT. ROADSIDE - LATE AFTERNOON

A couple of Ferndale P.D. SQUAD CARS flank either side of the

road.

ROADBLOCKS:

lined up across the asphalt deny access to the roadway

leading to Hillcrest.

ON Carter, leaning against a squad car. Deputy Clark stands

next to him. Carter lights up a cigarette...

DEPUTY CLARK:

Don't worry, Detective. No one's

getting up to that school.

CARTER:

And this is the only way up to

Hillcrest?

DEPUTY CLARK:

Sure is. Unless your boy can fly.

CARTER:

I hope not.

Deputy Clark laughs, Carter doesn't... just takes another

drag off his cigarette...

CUT TO:

EXT. HILLCREST ACADEMY - NIGHT

Darkness falls... Halloween night.

COSTUMED STUDENTS

make their way inside the gymnasium.

ON A BAND OF MISFITS.

Freshman, armed with cartons of eggs and rolls of toilet

paper, emerge stealthily from the wooded acreage... they

attack the Hillcrest Administrative Building.

ON WALLY.

The school custodian heads for the bell tower... spots the

young punks across campus defacing what he works so hard to

preserve.

He takes off in their direction.

WALLY:

(calling off)

Hey, you kids! Knock that off!

Get over here!

The boys see Wally headed in their direction... they

scramble, head back for the woods... a few of them throw eggs

in Wally's direction.

Wally makes it about halfway across campus before his old

ticker kicks in... he has to stop... catches his breath.

WALLY:

(continuing)

Damn kids.

Wally turns around, heads back to the bell tower.

One by one the freshman disappear into the thicket... one of

the boys runs smack into...

THE SHAPE.

The boys stares up at him, startled... he darts after his

friends... the SHAPE continues toward Hillcrest.

INT. DORM - MOLLY'S ROOM

Molly sits on the windowpane, her forehead pressed against

the glass. Lurch, the dog, lies across her bed.

ANGLE THROUGH THE WINDOW

A view of the entire campus. Couples make their way across

the grounds, move inside the gymnasium.

Molly lets out a sigh, wishes that were her and John... she

continues to stare longingly out the window...

THROUGH THE GLASS

ON Wally as he moves to the bell tower, disappears inside.

He is followed by...

THE SHAPE:

ON Molly. She sits up, takes notice... watches as the SHAPE

moves inside the bell tower, then suddenly...

A PAIR OF HANDS:

grabs Molly by the shoulders... spins her around, revealing...

LINDA:

in full "Bride of Frankenstein" costume.

LINDA:

BLAAAAAGGGHHHHH!

MOLLY:

Sh*t, Linda!

LINDA:

You're so easy...

MOLLY:

Wasn't scaring the hell out of me

once today enough?!

LINDA:

Nope. Hey, you think I'll win

scariest costume?

MOLLY:

Linda, you are without a doubt the

scariest person on campus.

LINDA:

Thanks!

MOLLY:

Where's Shane?

LINDA:

Condom Boy is waiting for me in

the cafeteria.

MOLLY:

But the dance is in the gymnasium.

LINDA:

Very insightful.

THE BELL RINGS.

Echoes across the campus.

LINDA:

(continuing)

Let the party begin.

MOLLY:

Have enough fun for the both of us.

LINDA:

Oh, don't be such a victim.

Linda produces a couple of shot bottles from her purse,

tosses them on the bed.

LINDA:

(continuing)

Here. Drink a couple of these.

It'll putcha in a much better

mood. Ta-ta.

Linda exits. The bell continues to ring. Molly sits on the

bed, pats Lurch on the head.

MOLLY:

Guess it's just you and me, boy.

The bell stops ringing abruptly. Molly turns her attention

back to the window...

ANGLE THROUGH THE WINDOW

At the top of the bell tower... the SHAPE stands beside the

massive bell... staring in Molly's direction, looking right

through her.

Molly gasps softly. She looks down below and sees...

LINDA:

leave the dormitory, heads for the cafeteria. Molly looks

back up to the bell tower... the SHAPE has vanished.

MOLLY:

Just some idiot in a costume...

Molly sits back on her bed, uses Lurch as a pillow... Molly

picks up one of the shot bottles, twists off the lid.
