Movie Makers

Part 1



The guys sat around in chairs. “This is going to be fun.” Justin said flipping through the script. “Yeah, but it’s going to be a lot different than making a music video.” JC said. “I know. But I’ve always wanted to be in a horror movie.” Joey said. They all watched as a young girl walked past. “Who was that?” Joey asked eyeing the girl. “I’m not sure what her name is but she’s going to play the killer.” Lance said. “Is it wrong to want to be caught?” Chris asked. “Not when the killer is that hot.” Joey said.


“I’m glad you guys could make it.” The director said as he walked up to the guys. He shook each of their hands before sitting. “Do you understand your parts?” He asked. “Yeah sure, this is going to be fun.” Justin said. “Great then lets get started. In this movie we’re just going to go from beginning to end. So Justin and Chris you’re up first.” He said. Justin and Chris smiled and then made their way on to the stage. “Okay, guys your at a party, and Justin you gave to leave. Ready and go.” The director said as the cameras started to tape. Justin and Chris paused for a second before starting.

“It’s getting late!” Justin said picking up his jacket. Justin is a freshman in college. “Oh, come on. The party is just getting started!” Chris said. “I can’t stay. I have a test tomorrow!” Justin explained. “Yeah! Whatever?” Chris said taking a drink from his cup. “Well, see you tomorrow!” Justin said then walked out the door.

“Great, now Justin you leave and then will do the out side shot.” The director ordered. Justin nodded and then got ready for the next scene.

The air felt strangely cool that night as Justin made his way down the step and out the door to his dorm, which was in the next building over.
Justin and Chris have been friends for some time now. Chris was older than Justin was, but they were the best of friends. Now Justin slipped up the steps to his dorm. Justin has no roommates and the door was locked. He reached into his pocket and pulled out the key. He placed it softly in the lock, with a click the door came open and he stepped inside.

“Okay again you did great, guys. Now we need Courtney in here for the first big scene.” He said. Soon the young girl they had saw earlier came around the corner. “I’m here.” She said. “Great this is you and Justin’s big shot now get in there and show me some good acting.” The director said. “Okay, are you ready for this?” She asked turning to Justin. “Yeah.” Justin said. The made they’re way to the set of Justin’s dorm.


“Okay Justin now you walk in and just act like your getting ready for bed.” The director said. Justin smiled and made his way to the set door.

The room was dark and he could not see. He did not turn on the lights for he was only going to get I bed. So he slipped off his shirt. He was young and muscular. He sat down softly on the bed so not to wake the people in the room beneath him.
He was in the process of taking his shoes off. That’s when out of the darkest part of the room a figure approached him. It approached him ever so quietly, Justin wasn’t aware it was there until, it garbed him. Throwing him down hard on the bed. He went to scream for help, but the figure quickly placed its hand over his mouth and tied his hands behind his back.

Justin began to kick, but the figure was too strong and Justin could not get lose. He tried with all his might to make out the figure in the dark, but the only thing he could see was the black cloak it wore. The cloak draped the figure from head to toe so that only a little of its face showed, but in the darkness of his room even this was hard to make out.

“I think we can do better than that Mr. Timberlake.” The director said. Justin looked over at him. Courtney let go of him. They ran through the scene a few more times before they got it right. “That’s more like it.” The director said once he was happy with the shot. Justin was just glad they could move on again. He looked over to see what the others were doing.


JC had fallen asleep in one of the chairs and was about to fall out of it. While Joey was busy talking to some of the extras from the party scene. “Let’s continue.” The director said. Justin placed him self-back under Courtney, she giggled. After all getting to wrastle a superstar was half the fun.

Justin began to tier from his struggle and the figure saw this. It gave a half smile then reached into its black cloak and pulled out some kind of tube. Justin found this odd but wasn’t going to question its purpose. It carefully placed its hand softly on his chin. It’s hands where small and it wore black gloves. It gently tilted his chin up. Before Justin could scream it pulled his mouth open with two fingers. Placing the tubing in the other hand it started to slowly slide the tubing down his throat. Justin started to gag, but the figure paid no notice to this and only kept pushing it in. Justin could feel it making it’s way down his throat. Soon it stopped the tubing was in there as far as it could go.


With that done it reached back into the cloak but this time pulled out a small blade. It turned the blade studding it for a minute. Then placed it softly on his throat, making a small cut. Justin felt the pain of the cut then the warm blood that spilled from it. He couldn’t help but wonder what it was doing. But as the blood rolled down his neck and into his bed, it was merely enough for him, so with in last struggle he passed out.

There was a loud noise. Everyone looked over to see JC lying on the floor. He had fallen out of the chair. JC now sat on the floor rubbing his head. “I’m sorry.” He said. The director shook his head and then turned back to the set. Both Courtney and Justin were laughed. “Mr. Timberlake your suppose to be passed out.” He said. “I know I’m sorry but you have to admit it’s funny.” Justin said. Lance helped JC off the floor. Lance led him over to a couch. “Why don’t you lay down here it’s safer.” Lance told him. JC gave him a mean look and then sat down.


They re-did the shot after Courtney and Justin stopped laughing and then go ready to move on to the next shot. Which was Chris and this other chick’s shot. The other chick’s name was Shay she was an older black lady who was going to play the campus police. So her and Chris got ready for their shot. Chris waited eagerly on the set. He was fully enjoying this. “Ready on the set.” The director yelled. Chris nodded to him to let him know he was ready.

The next day at school Justin was not there, and this worried Chris for Justin would never miss school. With that in mind he was going to check on Justin after school.


School came to a close and Chris ran to Justin’s dorm. To his surprise the door to Justin’s room was barely open. So he walked in. The room was clean; nothing was out of place. “Justin!” Chris yelled. But there was no answer. Where had he gone? Chris was about to leave when he saw that Justin’s bedroom door was open just a crack. Chris flung it open but wished he hadn’t for what he saw make him sick. Justin still lay in his bed, his hands still tied behind his back, blood dripping from his mouth and some white gauss that was wrapped around his neck, the sheets were soaked in it too. Chris ran from the room, nearly falling down the steps. He ran all the way to the security office.


“HELP!” Chris yelled falling in the door. “What wrong?” Linda the security guard asked. “It’s Justin!” Chris yelled pointing back to the dorm. “What’s wrong with him?” Linda asked. “I don’t know. He wasn’t at school today so I came to see him and he’s….” Chris stuttered. “He’s what?” Linda asked getting out of her chair. “He’s bleeding and he’s not moving.” Chris said. “Oh my god!” Linda said taking off toward Justin’s dorm.


“When did you last see him?” She asked. “Last night” Chris said as they reached Justin’s room. Linda slowly opened the door. The room was cold. Chris had left Justin’s bedroom door wide open in his race to get help, and that was the first thing Linda noticed. “Poor boy!” She said walking slowly into the room.
Chris stayed out side for he could not bear to see his friend in such away as this. The picture he had seen before was enough for him. Linda went in and started to check Justin, to her surprise as she was checking him he started to move. “You’re alive?” She asked. But Justin didn’t answer. He only started to move more. Chris herd Linda, and came running in. “Justin, man you’re alive?” He yelled.
“Chris stay here, I’ll go get help.” Linda said leaving the room. “Justin every thing is going to be all right.” Chris said grabbing his friend’s arm. Justin’s arm was like ice. Soon Linda came running back. “Justin hold on the ambulance is on it way.” She said.

Justin suddenly got tickled and started to laugh again. Which made Chris laugh too. “Man your suppose to be half dead.” Chris said trying to keep from laughing. “I know.” Justin laughed not even sure why he was laughing any more. “Boys please.” The director said. They both looked over at him. “Sorry.” Justin said trying to get serious again. As soon as he was done they started again.

With in no time the ambulance was there and Justin was loaded in. Chris road with him in the ambulance the whole way to the hospital. Many doctors went to see Justin but no one would inform Chris or Linda of his condition.


“Chris,” Linda said, “I need to ask you a few questions.” “Sure!” Chris replied. “I need to know what Justin was like last time you saw him?” She asked. “He was just like he always was. Why?” Chris asked. “Well, Chris,” Linda started, “you see the school believe Justin tried to kill himself.” “Justin would never do that, he loves school.” Chris yelled. “I know, but nothing was missing from his room. So it wasn’t robbery.” She said. “ I don’t wish to talk about that any more.” Chris said. Linda agreed to stay with Chris until they found something out.
