Group : Film Synopsis

  • The film will be a psychological crime thriller, following the actions of a normal business man who moonlights as a serial killer.
  • The film begins by introducing the character, before explaining why he kills particular people (he kills young fathers who reject their children as he never grew up with a father himself).
  • In his job as an investment banker in London, his co-worker begins to suspect him of his illicit activities due to being be a lonely outsider and hardly ever leaving his large house.
  • The killer is very careful about his work, disposing of the bodies by decompsing them in hydrofluoric acid, before poring the melted remains down the drain, this will be shown in our opening sequence.Thus police reports are only ever filed as missing person cases.
  • The killer see's the man is getting close to discovering his sins and, trapped in a corner, is forced to kill him. The mans wife, a close friend of the killers, refuses to accept that her husband would just abandon her and confesses to being not able to sleep in days and she pursues an investigation herself.
  • She discovers the killers identity and kills him in his own 'lair' disposing him in the same manner he did with multiple other bodies. The film closes with the woman going home and laying in bed, falling asleep.
-------
  • The intention of setting the entire film from the perspective of the murderer is to play on the audiences emotions, despite him being a bad person who commits illicit crimes, the audience will empathise and be sad when he is finally killed as they were the only people who knew both sides of him.
