This was a movie script I was working on.
FADE IN:
SAMUEL (VO)
You want to kill them don’t you? There
All inferior To you and you know it.
They don’t even deserve to breathe the
Air you breathe. Kill them. KILL THEM!
INT. BUNKER AFTERNOON
Inside a military bunker. With signs that a fight is about to break out.
Scene is black then you hear a voice.
MAN
Hey Sam, its time to get up.
SAMUEL slowly gets up and your seeing this through his perspective. He sees MAN who looks a bit weird for a human.
MAN
Aww did poor baby have a bad dream.
You was tossin an turnin all this
time.
SAMUEL gets up and pushes MAN.
SAMUEL
Yeah, I had this horrible dream,
you asked me out me. I of course said
nooooo, but you wouldn’t stop. You even
...well lets just say you tried lots of
stuff to convince me. I don’t know if ill
ever get recover from that.
MAN
Ouch, that sucks you’ll probly be scarred
For the rest of your life from that, but
get over it, the fightin’s about to
start.
SAMUEL
Oh goody good gumdrops, the fun is about to start!
MAN
Well take your time getting to your post,
after such a scary dream you shouldn’t work
yourself to much.
MAN walks off.
SAMUEl is watching him walk away, a weary look crosses his face he shakes his head as the last words from his dream cross his mind,
SAMUEL (VO)
KILL THEM!
SOLDIER1
There are too many! Too ma-
SOLDIER2
Grahhhhh!
SOLDIER3
Bring it bitches!
SAMUEL looks up and sees MAN and then and explosion goes off and devours MAN.
SAMUEL
Fuck!
SAMUEL runs off with inhuman speed and gets to his gun and he picks it up.
He turns around and see’s soldiers swarming in the new hole.
He fires and gets the first one in the head.
He gets shot in the arm knocking his gun out of his hands.
Then in the leg forcing him to go down.
He gets shot in the chest twice then a bullet goes through his throat.
Hear him trying to breathe; he falls down and world goes to black.
INT. PRISON CELL - DAY OR NIGHT
In a small part of cave where bars surrounds them. There’s a light bulb that has been worked into the cave at the top in the center over an operating table.
SAMUEL wakes up and he is chained on an operating table. A light is shining brightly in his eyes forcing him to squint.
He tries to get up but the chains on the operating table forces him to not move.
Once his eyes adjust to the light he looks around and notices where he is.
SAMUEL
Huh? Wh-whats going on, where am I?
RESISTANCE 1(R1) and RESISTANCE 2(R2) come in with guns pointing at SAMUEL.
GENERAL TERRY walks in between the guards.
TERRY
Well, what do we have here?
SAMUEL
What’s going on?
Why have you chained me up here?
TERRY
Whats going on?
Im the one one who should be asking
that you scrap piece of metal!
R1 hits SAMUEL in the head with the butt of his gun.
TERRY
Now that we have the formalities out
of the way I have some questions
for you.
SAMUEL
Questions?
TERRY
Now I thought we were through this.
TERRY nods to R1 and R1 hits him with his gun again.
SAMUEL
Ugh!
TERRY
Now just shut up and wait till
I ask a question. Ok first of all,
you some kinda new model? I’ve
never seen one o you hunk o junks
show any form of pain.
SAMUEL shakes his head in confussion.
SAMUEL
New, model what are you talking
about?
TERRY
Now, don’t go actin dumb on me
now, we all know what you are
you robot!
SAMUEL
Robot? What are you talking about?
I’m a human. I may have fused with
a robot but that doesn’t mean I am
one!
TERRY
Quit bein stupid! And just tell us
already!
SAMUEL
I don’t know what you’re talking
about! All I remember is that we
were under attack by U.R.A then
getting shot then everything went
black. Then all of sudden im chained
up here getting abused and asked all
sorts of weird questions!
TERRY
What are you talking about?! Just
answer my questions...wait U.R.A.
That was years ago.
TERRY leans in closer
TERRY
Now what would a
Primitive Pile
of Pistons like yourself know
about the U.R.A.?
SAMUEL
I was in the army for god’s sake!
Fighting against the U.R.A.!
GAH just let me go!
TERRY
Well, this is quite a conundrum.
You actually seem like a human and
I haven’t heard of any tin-heads
being able to use any sort of human
emotion.
SAMUEL
That’s because im not a robot!
TERRY
Well, we did do a scan of you and
apparently it shows that there is
no sign of you being corrupted by
that robot inside of you. We are
going to release you, for now.
TERRY nods at R1 and R2
TERRY
But we will be keeping a close
eye on you.
SAMUEL
So im being released, YES!
R1 and R2 release SAMUEL from the operating table then they stand back with there guns pointed at him.
TERRY
But first we are going to have a
little walk and talk.
SAMUEL gets up from the operating table.
SAMUEL
Ok.
Terry waves to R1 and R2 to leave.
R1 and R2 give look and each other worried then TERRY scowels at them.
R1 and R2 leave.
TERRY
Follow me.
TERRY leaves the prison cell and SAMUEL follows TERRY
INT. CAVE REFURBISHED VERY POORLY WITH EQUIPMENT THAT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL FALL APART ANY SECOND CANT TELL WHAT TIME IT IS
While Samuel and Terry are walking. People are in the background working on computers, doing maintenance on machines.
TERRY
You see boy, we were scouring an
old bunker for supplies when all
of a sudden we find you. A perfectly
fine tin-head that isn’t damaged.
So we drag you back hear to do some
experiments on you. But what happened
is when we scanned you, your vitals
were completely fine. You were
induced into some sorta coma and no
matter what kind of experiments we
tried on you; your body would heal
from it.
SAMUEL
Wait...none of this makes sense.
I should be dead after what happened.
TERRY
Well we have a theory that the tin
head inside of you was keeping
you alive all this time. But
that’s only a theory.
SAMUEL
Ok, so im a live because of the robot
I fused with... that doesn’t
make any sense. The robots with fused
with had no artificial intelligence.
TERRY stops and beckons Samuel to stop walking. Samuel stops and looks at him.
TERRY
That’s what we all thought. The
robots apparently started to learn
and grow from the humans brain that
they had fused with. Apparently the
human brain is quite something. So
after a while the robots had an
intelligence of there own and
started taking over the brains of
the humans they inhabited.
Terry lets out a sigh.
SAMUEL
We had no warning of this, no way
to try to stop them from taking
over our bodies. We didn’t know it
was happening till it was too late.
Now naturally the robots think that
there superior. So once the robots
had taken over the bodies of the humans
they started to rise up against us.
The human race was overpowered. We
were no match for them. All that’s
left is small pockets of resistance
members across the globe.
SAMUEL
But…but that’s terrible. That’s
all that’s left?
Terry shakes his head.
TERRY
I’m afraid so. You see how the
desperate the situation is. We
need all the help we can get.
That’s the only reason why let you
out of there. Some of our men
wanted us to do more experiments
on you saying we could valuable
information from that robot inside
of you. But as soon as you got
up and there weren’t any signs
of the robot corrutption on you
I decided to make you work for us.
SAMUEL
Well, I guess I have to say thank
you for what you did. But you could
have really learned some valuable
information from me.
TERRY
Well my boy how can we say were
fighting for the human race if
we give up our humanity? But anyways.
Terry begins walking off again and Samuel catches up and continues following him.
TERRY
Don’t think you’re out of the woods
yet. We still have reason to be
suspicious of you. Will be keeping
a close eye on you.
Terry reaches a door and opens it. He walks in and Samuel follows. Inside are racks of guns on the walls and armour. Terry picks up a gun and throws it to Samuel. Samuel catches.
TERRY
We also have little exercise to
make sure you really are with us.
SAMUEL
An exercise?
Samuel gives terry a confused look.
TERRY
Don’t worry its nothing to hard.
The thing is some new recognisance
says that there might be some
resistance members in a old war
bunker that’s close to here.
Samuel begins examining the gun while terry explains.
TERRY
Were making you take a closer look.
You will be accompanied by some
of my soldiers to make sure you
don’t do anything suspicious.
If they catch you sneeze a funny way
will have you on that operating
table in a flash.
Samuel stops examining his gun and looks at terry.
SAMUEL
…Soooo if there are resistance
members over there why aren’t
you guys already communicating?
TERRY
It’s not that easy to communicate
nowadays boy. The robots have either
destroyed or control and technology
that can give a message across the
world. The people there might just
be some scavengers or maybe they
don’t know about us or maybe there
isn’t anyone there at all but we need
someone to take a look just in case
there are people over so we can
bolster our defence against the
machine menace.
SAMUEL
Well, all right… so when do I
head out?
TERRY
Tomorrow, so make sure you get
lots of rest tonight, the trek
you’ll be taking will take a
couple of days and you might meet
up with some tin-heads on the
way there.
Samuel is giving off a depressed kind of look.
Terry walks over to Samuel and gives him a pat on the back.
TERRY
Don’t worry kid; I know all of this
is a big shock; losing all that time
and finding out things are like this.
SAMUEL
No, its all right, it is a big shock
and all but its not like I lost any
loved ones, I was pretty much a lone
all my life.
Terry gives Samuel a concered look.
SAMUEL
So im not worried about that…its just
that I have a strabe feeling in my head…
I dunno how to explain it.
TERRY
You probly just need some sleep.
Come on ill show you your room and
tomorrow you get to meet your new
squad mates.
Terry pushes Samuel along with his hand.
INT. ROOM IN THE CAVE WITH A MAT ON THE GROUND THAT’S FAIRLY DIRTY CANT TELL WHAT TIME IT IS
Samuel is lying on the mat looking up at the ceiling. After 5 seconds of staring he closes his eyes and the screen fades to black.
SAMUEL (VO)
Heh, you may be awake now, but
im awake now too and ive been waiting
a loooot longer then you have.
Samuel wakes up in a sweat.
The door to his room opens up and the GUARD outside the room comes in. Samuel looks at him.
GUARD
I was positioned at your door to
make sure you didn’t do anything
and you were making a lot of noise
now.
SAMUEL
J-just a bad dream is all.
GUARD
Well…alright then. I was going to
wake you up soon anyways. Your meeting
your new squad mates soon anyways might
as well go now.
Guard beckons Samuel out of the room and then escorts him.
You have some chatter noise then the guard opens the door and Samuel walks and everyone stares at him.
TERRY
Ah good to see your still here.
Well here are your new squad mates.
TERRY motions his arm across.
TERRY
That there is GALE, the person
beside Gale is Aaban. Over there
is Zev. And last but not least is
Harris. I hope you all will get a
long well. Well then with that out
of the way im off.
Terry walks out of the room.
When Terry leaves, Zev gets up and walks over to Samuel.
ZEV
Now look hear buddy, I don’t like
this at all having to work with you.
You should be strapped to that
operating table getting opened up
like the can of soup you are.
But because its Terrys orders we
all have to get work along… For now.
Zev gives Samuel a sneer and walks off.
Gale walks up and gives Samuel a pat on the back.
GALE
Don’t mind him, he’s just a douche.
The rest of us all are really nice.
Just like a kitty. So if you ever
need some to get Zev off your back
just come ask one of us kittys for
some help. Well all have nice little
pow wow. Don’t expect too much from
Harris though, he’s a mute.
Harris nods.
SAMUEL
Heh, thanks…but did you really just
say your bunch of kittys?
GALE
Yup.
Gale smiles and walks off.
SAMUEL
Come on we have to get equipped.
Harris and Aaban follow.
Samuel shakes his head.
SAMUEL
So this is my squad huh.
Samuel follows after the guys.
They change into there equipment.
INT. INSDIE OF THE CAVE ENTRANCE
Zev
This is going to take around a week
to get there. You better not slow us
down.
Zev looks at Samuel then walks off. Gale gives Samuel a smile then walks off and Harris and Aaban follow.
EXT. DESERT MORNING
The squad is walking through the dessert. Samuel stops and looks around.
SAMUEL
I cant believe this used to be Toronto!
Aaban
You better believe it. The robots
did quite a number on the world.
They don’t care about the environment.
They’ve found some way to run on nothing
at all. So most of the world is like this.
SAMUEL
Its still hard to believe.
SAMUEL begins walking again. The camera zooms out and you can see a destroyed CN tower.
EXT.A CAMPSITE THAT THEY MADE AT NIGHT
SAMUEL
Grahhhhh!!!
Goes inside the tent and Samuel is sitting up in sweat.
Zev is pointing a gun at Samuel.
ZEV
What was that all about, hmm?
SAMUEL
It was a bad dream.
ZEV
Suuuuure it was.
Aaban
Come on man he’s been in a coma for
around 6 years and woke up to…
well this.
Harris nods.
ZEV
Fine, but if the robots find us
because of him, I will kill him.
SAMUEL
Ohhhhhh! Big threat.
ZEV
Oh, you want me to try it now?
Samuel and Zev have a face off Zev eventually backs down and puts his gun down.
GALE
Come on guys lets get some more
sleep we still have quite a ways
of travelling.
EXT. MOUNTAIN AFTERNOON
There climbing a mountain. SAMUEL is leading.
SAMUEL(VO)
Come on, just do it.
SAMUEL looks down at the other guys.
SAMUEL
Do what?
GALE
Huh?
SAMUEL
Didn’t someone just tell me to do
something?
Everone looks at each other. HARRIS shakes his head.
SAMUEL
Huh…guess it was the wind.
They begin climbing again.
SAMUEL(VO)
Just push them off the mountain.
There weren’t be any evidence you did
it. They deserve to die, especially
that ZEV treating you the way he does.
Just push them off and you can say
they slipped and fell.
SAMUEL
Ok guys, what the fuck are you guys
saying!
ZEV
Were not saying a damn thing now quit
stallin before I rip you a new asshole
with some bullets!
SAMUEL
Shut the fuck up Zev, I know one of
you guys said something!
SAMUEL(VO)
That’s right there annoying aren’t
they, just kill them already!
Samuel looks at everyone and noticed no one said anything.
SAMUEL
I-I think I need a break.
GALE
Yeah, I think all of us kittys need
a break, being in the sun too long
isn’t good for or fur…And our brains too,
but those don’t matter as much as
long as we look good. So lets take a
break when were done climbing this
mountain, were almost done and there
will be better spots to hide.
Harris points to Zev.
GALE
Ah, your right he’s already dumb and
ugly. But we don’t want him to get
any dumber and uglier now do we?
Harris nods in agreement
Zev flips them off and continues walking.
INT. TENT NIGHT
GALE
Well were almost there. After we wake
up tomorrow should be about an hour
before make it there.
SAMUEL
Good thing too. I don’t know if I
could’ve spent any more time with Zev.
But it hasn’t been too bad. It’s had
its ups and downs. Just like Zevs mom.
Zev stares at Samuel.
SAMUEL
Get it? Im implying that I had
SEX with your mother.
ZEV
Wow a mom joke, how original. You
sir may look like a baboon but you
have the intelligence of a four year
old, I bow down to you intuectual
superiority,
Zev does a little bow.
SAMUEL
That’s right bow down to your mas-
wait a minute did you say im stupid?
GALE
He sure did.
HARRIS waves his hand around.
Aaban
Ah your right Harris, he also
called you ugly.
SAMUEL
Huh, wha…Zev, that really hurts my feelings.
Samuel pretends to be sad.
SAMUEL
I never expected you too say
Something like that. I think I need
a hug now.
Samuel goes closer and tries to hug Zev.
Zev pushes him away.
ZEV
Ahh, bugger off.
Everyone except for Zev begin to laugh.
