Top Two Thriller Ideas

My Top Two Thriller Ideas:

Idea 1: 

Whole Movie:

My main idea for the movie is that it would be based on the conspiracy theory that all the children that go missing are taken and sold to wealthy people who then send them out into forests and hunt then as a pleasure activity. My movie would follow the story of a young girl who ends up in one of these places but doesn't know why.  She gets killed but her soul won't rest until she finds out the sotry beind how she got there. I would probably end it somewhere on the lines that she had never actually been abducted but in fact her parents had given her up for money.

Opening Sequence:

My initial idea for the sequence was that there would be a group of children laughing and playing in the woods.  'Ready of not would then be heard' coming from a mans voice,but we cant see his face.  i would have then put in a change of atmosphere as the children frantically run around in an attempt to find a place to 'hide'. The camera would have then shot to a pan of a mans legs walking through the woods, and a close up on a gun hanging down at his side.  screams and shots would have been heard, and the sequence would have then cut out of the song 'If you go down to the woods today...' but the eerie version.  As the screen fades to black the title, 'Ready or not' would come across the screen and the same time that a gun shot is heard.

Changes:

People liked the initial plot of my movie once i had presented it to the class but the point was made that i was giving too much away within the opening title sequence, so I went away and came up with a less complicated idea of how I could open up my movie:

Little girl running and laughing in the wood, holding a toy.  Held camera following her around and she keeps on looking backwards, happy music but a distressed face.  There is a loud bang and the scene fade to black.  If you go down to the wood todays begins playing, camera shot of her toy on the floor, ‘Ready or not comes onto the screen.’

Idea 2:

Whole Movie:

 A girl, who, for the first 14 years was isolated from any human contact in her bedroom.  She has nothing but a mattress on the floor and deprived form any human contact.  She never saw her parents but only heard their voices, only thing she has seem are there hands as they pass food under the door.  One day whilst her parents out she managed to escape, when they return she is no where to be seen .  years pass and the father dies, the mother is left alone in the house, when the daughter one day returns.

Opening Title Sequence:

Nice house but there is a loud banging coming from upstairs, playing nice clam classy music. Suddenly cuts to a grey room, we can see the young girl, jump cuts as she frantically looks around the room.  She is screaming and tries to get out, parents not paying attention. Shots of left over food on plates and a dirty matress on the floor.  Zooms into the childs face, cuts out and then the words 'Isolation' come up onto the screen.
