IDEA NUMBER 2:

Teenage boy walking to a bus stop and everything seems normal
Boy gets onto bus and buys ticket only to realise he is £1 short
He tells the driver this and the driver tells him that he will then have to calculate the 'blood payment'
The boy looks very nervous and worried and the the ears of the other passengers seem to pick up
The boy is told he has to slice his finger before being allowed on the bus and is provided with a blade

IDEA NUMBER 3:

OPENING

A group of students are seen to be discussing the preparation for a movie shoot
One character is being told off by the others for bringing poor costumes and props
The dialog in the film explains that the group are going an island to shoot a short film for school

MAIN

The group board a boat to take them to the island only to be greeted by an unusual sailor
The sailor tells the group of Pagan traditions and  the significance of the island
He explains that today is the day of Samhain (a pagan harvest festival)
The boys laugh off the stories of sacrifice and spirits
The group are given a drink by the sailor to help with sea-sickness
The group arrive at the island and begin to start walking, discussing ideas for shots
|One member of the group mentions how the sailor was quite weird and made him feel uneasy and the others agree
A long shot show the boys looking quite ill, all standing beside each other with the sailor walking up the hill behind them

END

The group begin to be violently ill and collapse as 3 figures appear over the horizon
As the sailor comes from behind the group, he begins to say a prayer in a Celtic / Irish language
The 3 figures get closer and it becomes clear that they have weapons
One boy cries out for help but none comes
The group are then sacrificed (shown with fast-paced shots and quick editing, cutting between the boys, the pagan figures and some sort of graves)
