Int=John Milton's office-night- 1976
John Milton sits at his desk reading some papers when Dan Hawkins,writer and partner of miltons enter his office
DAN
Johny baby,I got something for you
Dan slams a script on Miltons desk
MILTON
What is it
Ji
DAN
(Sits down in front of Milton)
What is it he asks. Its the future Mllton
MILTON
(PICKS UP THE SCRIPT)
This is the future? What does it do? turn into a flying car or something
DAN
Ha ha very funny. No its the future of film. Horror film to be exact
Dan grabs the script and holds it in front of milton
DAN(Cont)
You know those old tired monster films you make,those creature features. Well they're old news, yesterday. People are just not afraid of werwolves and vampires and creatures from the sea
And nobody wants to see anymore demon possessed children. People want something real to fear. Something that could actually happen
MILTON
And this is that?
Milton grabs the script from Dan and reads the title
MILTON
Stab?
DAN
Yes Stab. Its short and to the point. Pun intended. But what is stab about you ask. Well let me tell you. Its about a man in a suit and mask that stalks and kills hot young girls with big breast. But what's so special about that Dan you ask. Ah good question. The special thing is he calls his victims and plays with them before he kills them. You get it now Milton. Its psycho with more blood and more breast. Your a breast man right Milton.
MILTON
And this is scarry?
DAN
Yes. Its scarry because the killer is just a regular man. Anyone could be the killer. You could be the killer. I can be the killer. Its scarry because its real.
The door opens and in comes milton secretary,AMY

On Dans way out he notices a costume hanging on the wall he grabs it
DAN

MILTON

Dan grabs the mask to get a better look
DAN

Dan puts the mask down and walks out
