I want to make Equilism, the movie.

It seems obvious to me that the NS region Equilism has split it two. There is now Evil twin Equilism, run by Westwind, and good twin Eqilism, now called the Eqilism commonwealth

So I want the movie rights.


Here is the synopsis:
In a freak Halloween accident involving a science project and a faulty microwave, geeky all-American college boy Equilism has split it two. Evil twin and good twin.

They ebil twin can only be stopped by merging once more with his good twin, which somehow must involve lightning (this is one of the narrative rules of such films).

The ebil twin rampages through the small town committing murders for which the good twin is blamed. eventually the old town sherrif believes him, and they together confront the evil twin.

yada yada - we will make up the rest as we go along.

please post extra scenes if you want.
 
Pre-credit sequence

A young college girl is walking through a park at night, her heels going clack clack on the path.

Suddenly she hears catcalls behind her. A gang of youths are fanning out behind her, making lewd and threatening comments. She speeds up, fumbling in her bag for a mace spray, which, in her fear, she drops.

SHe breaks into a run.... and emerges from the park into a brightly lit street. She has escaped ......... or has she?

Looking behind her, she bumps into Equilism, and falls into his arms. "Equilism! It is you!" she says "I am so scared - so glad to see you."

Equilism is dressed in jeans and a jumper, his hair cut short. He looks unthreatening....

Equilism hugs her as she sobs, and strokes her long hair gently...."Shhhh" he says "It is OK now."

Camera cut to his face, where an evil grin comes over his face. He suddenly pulls back on her hair and a kitchen knife is revealed in his other hand.

Cut to opening credits, over a white screen.

As the credits roll, blood flickers over the screen, and sounds of a muffled struggle can be heard. Eventually, the whole screen is covered in red.
 
Scene I:

A kitchen in a suburban house.

Equilism is lying on the floor, dressed as before, next to an overturned stool. The remains of a science project (test tubes etc) are all around him. An exploded microwave sparks on the side.

Equilism's hands and arms are covered with blood....

He wakes up and groans, bringing his hands to his head. He gasps, and a close up reveals how his hands are studded with broken glass. The blood is his own, not that of the murdered girl!

He staggers to his feet, and gingerly unplugs the microwave. Sounds of sirens are heard in the distance, drawing closer.
 
Flashback (in Black and white)

Earlier that afternoon, Equilism is preparing a science project in the kitchen. His mom calls from the hall that she is going out.

Equilism dictates into a dictaphone some rubbish about splitting dna. It does not matter much what he says - the science is always crap in such movies.

Two mice are in a cage. One is cowering in the corner, the other is running on the wheel. Faster and faster it runs, frantically snorting in anger.... Good and evil mice? Can it be?

Equilism takes a blood sample from one of the mice, and puts it in a testtube. He places the test tube in the microwave. As he sets it off, there is a sparking from the plug, and the micro explodes, showering him with glass.

As he falls back, he seems to .... split.

One of the equilisms wakes up first, looks down contemptuously at the other, and grabs a kitchen knife. He slips out into the night.

Flashback ends.
 
That would be the PAcific, naturally, since most of Eqilism seems to be modelled on that region.

... but without the style.
