TEASER
INTERIOR. BAR.
MANNING, COLORADO
MUSIC: Stevie Ray Vaughan - The House Is Rockin'
Shot of the bar covered in newspapers, someone's hands turning the pages of a hunter's journal.
BARMAID
(gently) Mr Elkins?
MR ELKINS doesn't seem to hear, he is totally focused on the journal.
BARMAID
Mr Elkins, would you like another?
ELKINS
(Looking up) Yeah. Thanks Beth.
MAN AT THE BAR
(To Beth as she serves him another beer) Thought they caught the Unibomber.
BETH
Yeah, poor Mr Elkins lives all alone, up the canyon. Sits here every day, going through his papers, making his little notes. He's a nice old man, he's just a nut.
BETH
(Pouring another shot for ELKIN) Here you go.
ELKINS suddenly stops and looks up. Four leather and denim clad people, one woman, 3 men, enter the bar and stand arrogantly surveying the room before moving to the bar. ELKINS watches them.
BETH
What will you have?
WOMAN
Jack all around, leave the bottle.
BETH
You hungry?
WOMAN
we have dinner plans.
BETH
Ok.
BETH
(turning to grab a bottle of jack) CAn I get you something else Mr Elkins?
She turns to him, but he is gone. The door swings closed.
...................................
EXTERIOR. COUNTRY CABIN.
ELKINS parks and hurries to the door, looking behind him as he struggles with the key.Once inside he dumps his papers on the desk, then freezes. He slowly turns to see the woman from the bar.
WOMAN
It's been a while. I gotta say, you look old.
ELKINS
What do you want.
He throws a knife which hits her dead centre in the chest. She looks down at it.
WOMAN
(Pulling knife out) Damn. You can do better than that.
Her eyes flash and she smiles. ELKINS hurries into the other room, locking the door and pushing a heavy bookcase across it. He opens a door to reveal a safe.
ELKINS
(starting the combination) Come on come on.
There is banging on the door. He removes a metal box from the safe and opens it to reveal a gun, which he quickly starts to load. The banging continues.
Two men from the bar drop through the roof and leap over the desk to grab ELKIN. The gun falls to the floor. The bookcase barricading the door falls and the woman walks though. The WOMAN picks it up from the sloor and examines it.
WOMAN
Nice gun. wouldn't do you much good of course. Boys, we're eating in tonight.
The men fall on ELKINS. They are vampires.
