SYNOPSIS:

Trilogy of Creepy:

synopsis:

Trilogy of Creepy takes three conversations as 24min shorts and creates a consistent creepy conversational tone in each short story. Filmmakers accidentally summon a demon - a naked man wearing a demon mask, sitting on a stool, who appeared out of nowhere; While trying to make a film about summoning demons. A conversation about the creation of lasting and powerful larger-than-life villains running parallel to a story with b-movie homage about a villain-esque anti-hero the unfortunate rat-man and the wannabe hero - hacker boy. And a controversial conversation, political and intellectual, now dramatised.

1. Demonology 101

A group of young guerilla filmmakers including two Jay and silent Bob-esque stoners, are trying to make a short movie on video about summoning demons. The stoners, in the middle of principal photography, find an ancient-looking inscription in the public loos and take a photo on their cell. The director decides to incorporate this message into the movie. And accidentally they summon a demon, for real.

2. The Analyst

is a conversation about creating a supervillain as iconic and lasting as the Joker and why that guy has been so huge, for so many successful iterations and for so long. While being a discussion about iconic villains, the plot running parallel to this conversation - focuses on an antihero; a young man who is bitten by a giant (dog-sized) deformed, hairless, mutant rat (with holographic eyes) which was living under his bed. As a result, he begins to change into a were-rat. Meanwhile, a young boy trying to fight crime as a genius hacker, discovers news about rat-man.

Amber is a neo-punk, and is curvaceous, black-haired, with a calm face and a tan. She runs a modern art and underground local music national magazine. It is a popular magazine.

Act Five:

We return to the conversation between Amber and Pinash; the nature of their conversation is about - do we care about the context in which art is made, or should the work speak for itself - and what do we do about horrible people who create great art, should we be expected to boycott the work because we don't like its creator?
