[while recording the girls]
I'm here with the beautiful Olivia "Don't-Look-At-My-Tits-I-Have-A-Mind" Morris! And my annual Woodsboro question "What's your favorite scary movie"
[sarcastically]
That's original!
Where did you hear that anyway?
Charlie It's a line from Stab 1!
Um...You're a genre nut, Kirby! What's your favorite scary movie?
[sarcastically]
Bambi. [pushes Robbie out of the way] Dork. [flirting with Charlie] What?
Charlie That's funny, Kirby!
Totally unaware you exist!
Charlie Yeah! [after Robbie has walked off] Asshole!
This... You film your entire high school experience, and, what, post it on the 'net?
Everybody will be doing it some day.
Charlie It's kind of the one component the killer is missing.
Charlie Well, if you wanna be the new, new version, the killer should be filming the murders.
Yeah, it's like the natural next step in the psycho-slasher innovation. I mean, you film them all real-time, and before you get caught, you upload them into cyberspace.
Charlie Making your art as immortal as you. [speaking the same time as Robbie] Not to implicate him.
[speaking same time as Charlie]
Not to implicate me.
So, who do you think is doing the murders?
Charlie Well, it's a Stab fanatic, clearly. Working on less of a Shrequel and more of a Screamake.
Copyright terms, by the way.
Charlie 'Cause all there are now are remakes. Only horror studios green-light. I mean, there are still rules, but the rules have changed. The unexpected is the new cliche.
Yeah, you gotta have an opening sequence that blows the doors off - gallop some music video direction and the kill's gotta be way more extreme.
Charlie Modern audiences get sappy to the rules of the original. So, the reverse has become the new standard. In fact, the only sure-fire way to survive a modern horror movie, you pretty much gotta be gay.
[pause]
So, why are you so sure that the killer is working by the rules of a horror remake?
Well, the original Stab structure is pretty apparent.
Charlie Yeah, two kids killed in a house when their parents are away?
And, then the school's 'hot chick' savage beyond recognition.
Charlie We all know where it goes from there...?
Charlie Exactly. A party. Guaranteed third-act-main-cast bloodbath.
Fingers crossed on some nudity for a change...
Charlie Alright, I hope no-one minds, but I'm putting on Stab 7! No-one cancels my movie night!
[eating popcorn]
Whoa, whoa, whoa! I don't want to watch that after what happened with Olivia!
Oh, come on! It was her favorite!
Charlie Wow, Kirby. You've got some real classics here!
Yep. I could trivia your ass under the table, Cinema Boy!
Charlie Alright... Who played Leatherface first?
[swallows her alcohol]
Gunnar Hansen!
Charlie Wow, did you feel that charge between us just then?
Oh, that was me! I have powers!
K Kirb
[Kirby goes outside and unties Charlie]
Don't worry, Charlie. I **** won. I won. He tried to beat me, but I **** won!
Charlie [holding knife]
Kirby? This is is making a move! [stabs her in the stomach.] Four years of class together, and you notice me now? You stupid bitch! It's too late! [stabs Kirby again.] Shhh, I know. It doesn't happen as fast as it does in the movies, I know.
Ch-Ch-Charlie...!
[Charlie gets irritated and drops Kirby and he runs away]
