The Idea
A girl and her family move to Houston, Texas from England. Then one night whilst watching T.V. a crazed man, who has just escaped from a local Mental Health Assylum, breaks into the house and slaughters Hollys family infront of her. He leaves her for dead. The movie is set 10 years after the murders and a nineteen year old Holly discharges herself from a psychiatric ward. The audience follows her pathway to a new life. She has no memory of her past as doctors trialled a new drug which has wiped her slate clean. A few months after her freedom she begins to suffer with flashbacks. Follow the journery of discovery but how will she handle the truth? and will the urge for revenge take over?

Director James Cameron
We chose actors that have well established fan bases and have worked either together or on these sorts of films before, we feel this would enourage an audience to watch because at least one of their favourite actors will be present. We chose James Cameron as Director because of his recent success with Avatar and feel he may be able to achieve the same effect with our idea. As he is now well known as a great Director that may encourage more viewers, to see what he has done next. Funding may be made more available if someone like James Cameron is involved.
