Huh?

You know what, I'll play along. Yeah?

- I don't even think any of this is real.

- Please.

You don't think I'll do it.

I'll pull this trigger and your

whole game will be up!

Look, I'm not the guy you think I am.

His name is Stuart,

he's the projectionist. Was.

He's the one doing this.

- Bravo. Real tears and everything.

- Please.

You have to believe me,

I have no idea.

You are a f***ing liar!

You sick f***.

No. No.

How about I phone the police, huh?

How will that factor into

your sick little plot?

F***!

I don't know.

No, don't make me do that.

Why?

Help! Help! Anyone please?

Help! Help! Help! Anyone?

Help! Please! Help!

Anyone please help!

Allie? Al. Allie, wake up.

Allie.

Allie?

Allie, wake up, Allie.

Allie!

Allie, come on, get up.

Come on, come on.

I do hope you've not broken it.

Took me ages to save for this.

Bet you wish you had

a second bullet now!

Don't you, killer?

- Could you just do that last bit again?

- What?

You need help, you killed someone.

- You killed someone, I just captured it.

- It was your fault!

Oh. Now, now, grow up.

All good villains take

responsibility for their actions.

Look, I'm not the villain here.

Lovely, more great dialogue.

I'm so pleased I cast you.

- Why me?

- Why not?

I watch people.

I've spent years

looking down on them,

observing what makes

them laugh and cry,

be shocked or scared. And I

realised I required a couple.

Well, you looked like perfect

leading man material, and her,

well, she's the girl next door. Got to

have something to fight for, right?

Presto! We've got a film.

Look, this isn't some game!

This is my life you're f***ing with!

I know, that's why I want to give

the people the film they crave.

You're just a sad old man,

with a shitty little camera.

I'm not some amateur, Martin.

I've projected films for over 25 years,

and if I can no longer show them,

then I might as well

learn how to make them!

You know what I learned?

I learnt that these days,

you've got to have an angle.

I decided that I was going to make

a horror film using real people.

No one's done that before,

you're going to be famous, we all are.

Who's going to watch a film

that someone died making?

Bruce Lee, Enter the Dragon.

Brandon Lee, The Crow.

And what about those children that

were decapitated by the helicopter

in that Twilight zone movie,

what about that then?

Guess what. They were accidents.

Well, so could this be

if I edit it differently.

So come on then, how does this end?

- What do you mean?

- You're the filmmaker.

You must know how it ends.

Of course I do.

And why would I tell you?

You should never spoil

the ending, never.
