Halloween H20 Page #2

She grabs a flashlight out of the nearby cupboard, and

proceeds down the hall to --

INT. OFFICE

The converted bedroom in complete disarray... Pamela

navigates through the wreckage, carving a path with the beam

of her flashlight. She approaches --

A DESK:

completely bare except for a single FILE FOLDER resting on

its top.

PAMELA:

shines the beam on the lone file folder.

ON the folder... the index tab reads "KERI TATE." Pamela

opens the folder, it's EMPTY.

PAMELA:

gasps, the blood rushes from her face. She immediately

rushes for the phone.

CLANK!

A noise is heard. She's not alone in this house. She moves

through the hallway to discover the front door wide open.

Sh*t. She bolts.

EXT. HOUSE

Pamela runs out the door and back to Jimmy's house. She

opens the front door, disappears inside.

INT. HOUSE

Pamela shuts the door behind her... cranes her neck,

searching for any signs of Jimmy --

She HEARS the sounds of a television emanating from deep

within the house.

PAMELA:

(calling off)

Jimmy! You still there?!

CAMERA FOLLOWS Pamela as she makes her way from one darkened

room to the next... she crosses into the den to discover

JIMMY:

seated in an easy-chair, watching an episode of "SEINFELD."

his back to Pamela... only his legs are visible from her

point-of-view.

Pamela approaches him --

PAMELA:

Goddamnit, Jimmy! Someone's still

in my house!

Pamela spins the easy-chair around to reveal --

A HOCKEY SKATE:

embedded deep into Jimmy's face... the blade slicing through

flesh, from forehead to chin... eyes wide open in terror...

blood cascades down his jersey...

PAMELA:

screams... bolts through the house, reaches the front door to

find --

A CHINA CABINET:

pushed in front of it, blocks her way! She tries fiercely to

move the wooden hutch, but can't...

Pamela runs back through the house, frantic... in desperate

search of an exit.

She crosses into the kitchen, spots her escape... moves to

the rear door, opens it to reveal...

THE SHAPE:

standing, poised, evil eyes burning through slits in his

trademark mask.

PAMELA:

shrieks... grabs a knife out of a nearby butcher block...

heads back to the living room.

THE SHAPE:

moves after her, the hunt is on...

INT. LIVING ROOM

FLASHING RED AND BLUE LIGHTS

illuminate the room...

PAMELA:

runs to a window...

ANGLE THROUGH WINDOW

A squad car arrives in front of Pamela's house. Two

UNIFORMED COPS emerge from the vehicle, head up her driveway.

PAMELA:

Struggles to open the window... she can't manage to disengage

the lock... she pounds feverishly on the glass --

PAMELA:

(yelling)

HELP! GODDAMNIT IT! OVER HERE!

GOD PLEASE!

THE SHAPE:

appears behind her... grabs an IRON POKER from a group of

fireplace utensils.

PAMELA:

spins around, swings at the Shape with the knife...

PAMELA:

Stay the f*** away from me!

The Shape swings the iron poker... delivers a severe blow to

Pamela's arm... breaks it... the knife falls to the floor

below.

Pamela howls in pain... drops to her knees, nurses her arm...

The Shape raises the poker high into the air, comes down

hard... drives the tip of the poker through her skull...

CRACK!

EXT. PAMELA'S FRONT PORCH - SAME TIME

In the f.g. two cops climb the porch steps and move into the

house.

In the b.g. we can see the Shape through the neighboring

window as he repeatedly stabs Pamela with the poker.

CUT TO:

EXT. HILLCREST ACADEMY - ESTABLISHING - MORNING

CLOSE ON A PLAQUE

"HILLCREST ACADEMY. ESTABLISHED 1874"

THE CAMERA PULLS BACK TO REVEAL a co-ed boarding school...

set behind massive wrought-iron gates on acreage in a

secluded region of Wisconsin.

SUPER the legend: "Ferndale, Wisconsin. October 29th 1998."

The academy's gothic architecture and rich history can be

seen throughout the entire campus, consisting of a cluster of

buildings:
the school, the dorms, a gymnasium with indoor

swimming pool, a bell tower, a guard house and --

A GROUP OF FACULTY HOUSES

litters the far end of the campus.

CLOSE ON a kitchen window. Inside KERI TATE, mid-thirties,

stands behind a sink washing dishes.

On closer inspection, we see that this face is none other

that LAURIE STRODE.

INT. KITCHEN - MORNING

Keri stands with her back to JOHN, 16, chiseled good looks.

He stands behind her in the doorway... They are in mid-

conversation --

KERI:

Nothing's changed since yesterday,

or last week, or last month... the

answer's still "no."

JOHN:

You're so predictable.

Keri grabs the sprayer, squirts John from across the room.

JOHN:

(continuing)

What the --

KERI:

Betcha' didn't predict that.

Keri throws John a dishtowel... he dabs at his shirt.
