County Road -late at night
it's late at night a young couple drives in the woods both siting in the front sits Darren who is 24 years old and beside him is Brooke also 24 . MUSIC PLAYS IN THE CAR.
Through the front windshield - headlights pierce darkness
Darren
An hour drive to hear that crap, wasn't even a band;guy with a guitar. An hour each way.
Brooke
He wasn't that bad.
Darren
He sounded like James blunt.
Brooke
What's wrong with that?
Darren
We already have a James blunt one's all we need
Through the windshield.... A misty fog start's rolling by.
Darren
You owe me so much sex for this night.
The fog grows thicker and thicker. It becomes difficult to see the road in front of them.
Brooke
What's with the fog?
Darren
It'll clear..... Give it a sec.
Brooke
You could slow down.
There's nothing but white all around them. The road's almost completely gone from view. Then, all of a sudden..... the fog lifts. They can see again.
Windshield -pov-a man stands in the middle of the road.
Darren hits the brakes. Not fast enough..... They crash into the man.
His body goes up and over the jeep, rolling off the top, hitting the ground behind them
Darren yanks the wheel , sending the jeep into a tailspin across the road. It comes to a screeching Halt. Everything goes silet. Darren turns to Brooke.
Brooke
We hit someone, oh god.....
She's in full panic. Starts crying. Darren reaches for his cellphone. Starts dialing. Opens the door.
Darren
Jesus. Shit. Stay here, okay?
Brooke
Please let him be all right.
Darren hops out of the car, leaving Brooke shaking. She peers out the window, but she can't see anything. The headlights are pointed to the woods.
Brooke
Please, please, please.......
She turns to look out her side window when..... A face appears. Brooke leaps out of her skin. It's Darren.
Darren
I can't get reception. Try your phone. And he's gone
Darren races across the road, where the man lies. Still.
Slowly, he approaches the man , kneels down.... Beside the body, it's not moving, Darren knows this isn't good, he finds his hand..... lifts it.
We glimpse a ring on the dead man's finger. It's unusual, antique. A lapis stone.
He peers down to the man's face. Unable to see him at all. It's pitch black.
He flips his cellphone around and Hits the touch pad, it lights up his led screen. Use's it as a light when....
In a flash --- hands reach out.
In a flash --- the man rises up
In a flash--- Darren's head yanks back, neck exposed.
In a flash --- Sharp. Gleaming. Fangs.
Rip into Darren's throat. He's dead in an instant no scream. no noise at all. A vicious, silent death.
EXT. Car- night
Brooke gets out the car with her cell, having no idea what's happening just yard's away. She's having trouble getting reception as well. she walks around to the front of the car. Calls out
Brooke
Mine doesn't work either.
Her eyes search the darkness. There's no Darren. No man either for the matter, Brooke looks around.
She turns back to the car. Frightened, terrified, a noise behind her . She turns. Just as....
Darren's body falls onto the car's hood. from above out of nowhere, it land's with a resounding thud. Sprawled across the hood his neck a raw and bloody mess.
Brooke is paralyzed in horror. A figure emerges behind her. A man silhouette In the headlights. His fare shadowed.
She sense's his presence. She spins around. No one's there because, now he's on the other side of her. How did he get there? Impossible.
She spins around again. He's gone again.
Brooke turns and begins to run . Down the center of the road. Screaming hysterically. Trying to put distance between her and whoever is out there ...
she keeps running and running..... directly into the fog.
Everything becomes blurry real fast. Brooke keeps moving, not looking back, disappearing further into the hazy mist.
A pov tracking shot behind her..... travelling lightning fast. it catches up with her
Suddenly, Brooke's feet leave the ground as here entire body takes flight. Her scream echoes through the night as something much faster and stranger yanks her entire body our of sight. Then, her scream is cut short. A deadly silence.
Swirling for fills the frame....
From it, appear the following words....
