My final idea for our opening thriller film will be based on 'Chain Mail'. The opening will begin in an empty room with dimmed, spooky lighting whilst a teenage girl is on her computer looking through her Facebook page. A pop-up of a chain mail appears on her screen, with a bold, large font saying "If you don't pass this on to your contact list within the next 30 seconds, you will die in 24 hours". Having seen plentiful chain mails before, she deleted it without a concern. Having done that, she soon after receives a phone call from a strange, deep voice on the phone exclaiming 'You shouldn't have deleted that'. She hung up straight away, very confused. The same message pops up on her screen again which she deleted for the second time slightly more anxious now. She goes into her kitchen and boils the kettle to make herself a coffee (noise of kettle creates suspicious atmosphere). The phone rings again with the same voice on the phone saying 'you shouldn't have deleted that'. The girl hangs up straight away and exits from her Facebook, worried. However, the same message pops up again on her home screen of the computer which really startles her this time and she begins to get frantic. She takes a sip of her coffee and the phone rings for the third time. This time round the voice on the phone says 'I warned you, You shouldn't have drunk that' and the line goes dead.
A possible title for this thriller could be 'You shouldn't have deleted that' as it is a recurring line the caller says which the audience becomes aware of. Another title could be 'Ctrl Alt Delete.' which creates more suspicion but already suggests a computer is involved. 'The Caller' can also be a possible title idea too.
