The Raking Page #5

Synopsis: As part of a Cultural Anthropology Project, several college students embark on a weekend camping trip to research an urban-legend, The Rake. The Rake is a terrifying monster, in humanoid form with long claws. The creature feeds only on the Equinox, which also happens to be the same time the college students take their camping trip. As the college students explore deeper and deeper into the desert to chase down the myth, and disprove of it's existence, they find themselves no longer the hunters of mystery, but the prey of The Rake itself. Now they find themselves fighting for their very lives.

Okay.

Well, on her way home,

she heard footsteps behind her

and she began to panic,

so as soon as she got home,

she pushed a heavy dresser

in front of the door

and was finally able

to fall asleep.

Rule Number One,

never fall asleep.

Well, when she woke up,

she pushed the heavy dresser

out of the way,

opened the door,

took one step out,

and slid and completely fell.

She realized,

as she looked down,

she was completely

covered in blood,

with her friend's mutilated body

right next to her,

and a bloody hatchet

stuck in the wall.

I-if the roommate hadn't've put

the dresser in front of the door!

Yeah, but she didn't know.

All things are easier

in hindsight.

You okay?

Yeah.

Did you ever call Mom and Dad...

let them know where you were?

Oh, sh*t.

Yeah... sh*t.

Kelly...

[camera beeps]

How would you

describe Joshua Tree?

Describe it?

Yes. For our project.

The mood, the terrain...

How does Joshua Tree feel?

[crickets chirping]

[distant coyote call]

I think it feels...

alive.

[coyotes barking, howling]

[urinating]

[zipper zips]

Ghost stories make me horny.

What doesn't make you horny?

Are you complaining?

No, I'm definitely

not complaining.

You're a beer virgin!

Noah, how does

your first beer taste?

[Noah slurring indistinctly]

[Jade]

How did your first beer taste?

[Noah] Yeah! How'd...

your first beer taste?

It was good.

[slicing sound]

Ow! That hurt!

What?

You just scratched my back!

I didn't touch your back.

- Then what was that?

- I have no idea.

[subtle ominous music ]

It felt like a hand.

Wait, what?

That doesn't make any sense.

Here, show me.

[distant coyote howl]

What?

[coyotes barking, howling]

All right, we need to go.

Come on, go. Go!

- [Noah] No. Go away!

- [Kelly] Come on!

You know it's fun!

- Go away!

[Jade]

Kelly, come on!

[Kelly laughing]

We're having so much fun

right now.

Okay, what about you?

- Look at him!

- No!

- He's like invisible paint.

- What?

Ah! Don't look! Don't look!

[Kelly]

Come on.

Come on, you know it's funny!

[overlapping slurring, laughing]

Guys, something just grabbed me!

What could possibly

have grabbed you?

I don't know.

Oh! I get it!

You get what?

That was good!

You actually almost had me!

[laughter]

Does it look like

I'm making this up?!

[gasping]

[ghastly roar]

[gasping]

- I'm scared.

- It's okay, it's okay.

[ominous music ]

[rustling]

- Do you see anything?!

- Nothing.

[loud roar]

[roar]

[panicked breathing]

[growl]

[Jade]

It's okay.

[Noah]

Holy sh*t!

[all panting]

Okay, okay...

- What the hell is that?

- I don't know. Let's get the hell outta here!

For once, I agree with you.

Jade!
