So, Mr Russell, this is

what I came up with.

You see, we must give the

audience what they want.

Don't take this

personally, Mr Russell.

There, I think we've

got enough of that.

Cheers for being such a good sport.

This should look

fantastic in the edit.

Come on!

Where is she?

How am I supposed to play

your sick little game...?

Come on, d*ckhead, direct me!

Oi! Stop!

- Don't shoot!

- What have you done with her?

I don't know what you're...

Please. Look, I'm not the guy

you want, OK? He tried to kill me.

Shut up! Where is she?

OK, look at my neck, OK? You see

these cuts? He did this to me.

Stop lying! Just let us

out of here, please!

You're the one holding the gun.

You gave this to me! Just please,

just stop. Stop with this act!

Please, you're not making any sense.

I bet this looking real good for

your perverted little film, isn't it?

A guy with a gun, will he

shoot him? Won't he?

I bet this gun doesn't

even have a bullet in it.

You wouldn't give a

real gun, would you?

I mean, what if I did

shoot you? Right now.

Where would that leave you?

Huh?

You know what, I'll play along. Yeah?

- I don't even think any of this is real.

- Please.

You don't think I'll do it.

I'll pull this trigger and your

whole game will be up!

Look, I'm not the guy you think I am.

His name is Stuart,

he's the projectionist. Was.

He's the one doing this.

- Bravo. Real tears and everything.

- Please.

You have to believe me,

I have no idea.

You are a f***ing liar!

You sick f***.

No. No.

How about I phone the police, huh?

How will that factor into

your sick little plot?

F***!

I don't know.

No, don't make me do that.

Why?

Help! Help! Anyone please?

Help! Help! Help! Anyone?

Help! Please! Help!

Anyone please help!

Allie? Al. Allie, wake up.

Allie.

Allie?

Allie, wake up, Allie.

Allie!

Allie, come on, get up.

Come on, come on.

I do hope you've not broken it.

Took me ages to save for this.

Bet you wish you had

a second bullet now!

Don't you, killer?

- Could you just do that last bit again?

- What?

You need help, you killed someone.

- You killed someone, I just captured it.

- It was your fault!

Oh. Now, now, grow up.

All good villains take

responsibility for their actions.

Look, I'm not the villain here.

Lovely, more great dialogue.

I'm so pleased I cast you.

- Why me?

- Why not?

I watch people.

I've spent years

looking down on them,

observing what makes

them laugh and cry,

be shocked or scared. And I

realised I required a couple.

Well, you looked like perfect

leading man material, and her,

well, she's the girl next door. Got to

have something to fight for, right?

Presto! We've got a film.

Look, this isn't some game!

This is my life you're f***ing with!

I know, that's why I want to give

the people the film they crave.

You're just a sad old man,

with a shitty little camera.

I'm not some amateur, Martin.

I've projected films for over 25 years,

and if I can no longer show them,

then I might as well

learn how to make them!

You know what I learned?

I learnt that these days,

you've got to have an angle.

I decided that I was going to make

a horror film using real people.

No one's done that before,

you're going to be famous, we all are.

Who's going to watch a film

that someone died making?

Bruce Lee, Enter the Dragon.

Brandon Lee, The Crow.

And what about those children that

were decapitated by the helicopter

in that Twilight zone movie,

what about that then?

Guess what. They were accidents.

Well, so could this be

if I edit it differently.

So come on then, how does this end?

- What do you mean?

- You're the filmmaker.

You must know how it ends.

Of course I do.

And why would I tell you?

You should never spoil

the ending, never.

Now, Martin, isn't it?

Martin, we're between takes here.

Tell us, how's it going?

What the f*** is this?

How's it going?

This is for the special features.

DVD, extras and such.

It's an interview.

Martin, we're not done here.

Martin?

Martin?

Martin!

- Where's Martin?

- I'm right here.

- How you feeling?

- My head.

- Look, we've just got a few more steps.

- It hurts.

Come on, come on. Come on,

you can do it, get up.

Ready?

There we go, OK, right. You ready?

Please, don't kill me.

Please, don't kill me!

Please don't kill me!

Please, don't kill me.

Please, don't kill me.

Please, don't kill me.

I don't feel too well.

Just step over here, OK?

- Wait, what are you doing?

- Hurry up.

Why are we in here?

We came to watch a film, remember?

Oh, no, I'm sorry,

have I ruined our date?

No. It's really important

we leave right now.

- I'll explain when we get home.

- Stop rushing me.

- Come on, hurry up.

- Hang on, I'm going to be sick.

Al?

- Al?

- Give me a minute.

- I'll be right back!

- Where are you going?

Let's cut to the chase, shall we?

Allie?

- Al?

- Yeah, what's wrong?

- We need to leave right now!

- I'm almost done.

The shutters are closing, I haven't

got time to explain. Come on!

You're scaring me.

What are you doing?

- Come on!

- You're acting crazy!

Allie, come on!

Let's leave, quick!

Quick, quick, quick!

Sh*t!

What's wrong? Don't they

know we're in here?

What's going on?

Hey.

Talk to me, please.

We're never getting out of here.

Here. It's OK, it's just a mistake.

Someone will see us on the cameras.

Someone can.

Look on the bright side, if we

get stuck in here all night,

we can gorge ourselves on vending

machine chocolate and fizzy drinks.

Hey.

I was only joking.

I thought I'd lost you.

What's this?

- I've done something.

- What?

It's something terrible.

Why have you got all this money?

I don't want... He made me take it.

- What? You mean you stole this?

- Yes! No!

I was trying to find you.

"Don't you know there's a

psycho killer running amuck?"

"No, I don't trust you."

"I'm on your side."

"My side? No, you're lying."

Why can't I remember

anything since then?

I don't know, I went to

come and find you and...

Look, listen. There's this guy,

he's got a camera.

He's watching us,

he's locked us in here.

What guy?

The bald man, the old guy.

He served us popcorn.

- OK, well, he'll let us out.

- No! Allie, don't!

I'm just going to find someone.

- There's no one.

- You said there was!

Yes, I know, but...

"You've hurt me again."

"I'm so sorry. Come with me,

I'll rescue you."

- This isn't you!

- This isn't my fault!

- Please, tell me the truth.

- You were drugged!

What?

You were drugged, I came to find

you and you were unconscious. I...

But why would you assume...?

- You think I...?

- F***ing coward!

Allie! Allie!

Please don't go in there!

Allie, Allie, please let me in!

Allie, open up!

Allie, please, come on!

Allie, come on, you know

I'd never hurt you.

Don't you f***ing lie to me!

You just couldn't wait, could you?

You couldn't wait!

So you drugged me, and then what?

Where did you take me?

Did you drag me upstairs?

Did you take my clothes off first?
