  1. Your ideas relate to conventions of horror films but this script is lacking a lot of detail.

    Firstly, each scene must have a link and these scenes do not - they almost seem like they are all taken from different films! You have to be clear how the story will develop and how you are going to transitions in editing to do this.

    Secondly, the storyline does not seem clear. How do the group of friends end up getting killed randomly on the way to a party? You've got to think about the way in which this part of the story develops to the end. You state that one of the characters has an address so how the does the last character stumble into a house for safety and then meet his death? This seems unclear.
