Clash of the Titans
FADE IN:
EXT. ALLEYWAY (VILLAGE) - DUSK
Gloomy, last light. From out of the shadows comes --
A DOG. A dog of war. Big, mangy, muscular, scary. As
he moves down the alley, the way becomes increasingly
choked with fallen structures. and signs of tumult.
EXT. BATTLEFIELD - DUSK
TRACKING WITH THE DOG as he comes onto a battlefield.
The hellish scene is REVEALED TO US SLOWLY --
SERIES OF SHOTS:
as the Dog traverses a landscape of --
BODIES, frozen in contorted death poses. This was
furious, hand-to-hand fighting between human SOLDIERS and
nightmare CREATURES, their corpses now in piles to the
horizon.
The Dog climbs a mound of casualties. At the top, the
Dog looks back across the battlefield. The Dog's eyes
are sad, his expression weary and disgusted.
DISSOLVE TO:
EXT. THE PALACE OF ACRISIUS - NIGHT
The entrance is patrolled by a dozen PALACE GUARDS. They
don't see the Dog pad silently to a fissure in the palace
wall and disappear inside.
INT. THE PALACE OF ACRISIUS - GREAT HALL - NIGHT
Bloodied and battered, the King's GENERALS are
disagreeing loudly about strategy. A loud BANGING sound
pierces the hubbub, and the officers quiet, turning to --
KING ACRISIUS, a striking man in his prime, his handsome
face marked by one crooked scar on his jaw. He commands
the room --
KING ACRISIUS:
Now we end the debate about
tactics... and begin to plan for
victory.
2.
The Dog stares at the King. Then slips away.
INT. THE PALACE OF ACRISIUS - GREAT STAIRS - NIGHT
Unseen by exhausted Guards, the Dog bounds up the stairs.
INT. THE PALACE OF ACRISIUS - ROYAL APARTMENT - CORRIDOR -
NIGHT:
The Dog approaches a doorway; stops to watch from the
shadows.
INT. THE PALACE OF ACRISIUS - BEDCHAMBER - DOG'S POV -
NIGHT:
In the dim bedchamber, the SILHOUETTE of QUEEN DANAE as a
LADY-IN-WAITING removes her gown, revealing the Queen's
perfect body as she slips into bed. The Lady-in-Waiting
leaves.
The Dog's eyes. He moves forward.
FLOOR-LEVEL
TRACKING WITH the Dog's legs as they MORPH INTO HUMAN
LEGS. The CAMERA RISES BEHIND a towering male figure,
who roughly pulls a curtain aside.
In the bed, the Queen is startled, then pleased.
QUEEN DANAE:
My King! Has the strategy been
set so quickly?
REVERSE ANGLE:
The looming figure looks exactly like King Acrisius,
including the distinctive scar. He regards her hungrily.
QUEEN DANAE:
Come to your Queen, my King.
INT. THE PALACE OF ACRISIUS - GREAT STAIRS - SUNRISE
The real King Acrisius wearily climbs the stairs with
AIDES and Guards. Suddenly, the King stops.
