Finished idea
As it is quickly approaching time for us to film and edit our production, I believed it would be best to outline entirely our idea and trailer story line as we have only given it in pieces thus far.
Our idea, as aforementioned, is to base our Thriller on a 'copy cat' of the A6 murderer, widely believed to be James Hanratty who has re-enacted the murders to prove a point about DNA. In 1961, the time of the real murders, DNA evidence could not be gathered though now it can. In 2002, James Hanratty, who was hanged for the crime, was 'proved' to be the murderer through DNA evidencing, though some believe he was framed merely to finish the case. This is the point we base our film around; the murderer is proved to be, by DNA, Hanratty though he was hanged 50 years previously so the only solution is that the DNA has been tampered with. To enforce this point, the victim is one of the Pathologists that proved Hanratty guilty, adding an eeriness 'tick-list' ideology through the fact that he is not the only one of the Pathologists to have died in recent times. The murderer, this time, obviously does not agree that Hanratty should have been blamed the first time round. Throughout the trailer, the Police Chief Inspector recounts the previous case, sound bridging over clips of the original case and the similarities now. It is not until the end that we find the DNA proves Hanratty guilty. The film is called, 'Deadman' as a play on words as the original murder happened on Deadman hill and the proved murderer this time round is Hanratty who is a 'Dead man'.
