My Horror Pitch:

In the Graveyard



  • A group of teenagers go to a Halloween house party and get drunk


  • Then they all decide to visit a graveyard.


  • They start to vandalise the old grave stones by kicking them, throwing drinks at them etc.


  • They all start towalk away, when all of a sudden the ground starts to shake and the tombstones shatter.


  • Then zombies start to appear out of the ground walking slowly towards the teenagers with their arms out in front of them making a groaning sound.


  • The teenagers try to run away from them and hit them off, but the zombies still attack.


  • The zombies start to eat the teenagers by pulling their limbs apart and taking big bites.


  • All of the teenagers are dead except for one who survives.


  • All of the zombies return to their graves accept for one.


  • The last girl standing walks home to tell her family what had happened. She enters her house and shouts for her family but nobody answers. The television is on and she can see the back of her mother, farther and also her younger brothers head.


  • She runs in front of them to tell them what happened but only to find their throats bitten with big chunks of their neck's missing.


  • She turns to find the zombie standing in the corner of the room walking slowly towards her arms out making those grotesque groaning noises, with its arms out in front.

  • She screams!

The end


I think that this pitch would make a successful horror film because it is similar to other classic horror films. The fact that my storyline contains zombies, which are also known as 'the living dead' in other films are very popular characters to have in horror films. My pitch also has blood and gore through out the story which keeps it within horrific, sticking to horror. However my storyline also has a group of teenagers as part of the main cast which i personally think would attract the teenagers as an audience for this film.
