Breakdown
JAN SANDERSON Age 20-25. She is pretty, delicate and vulnerable. She is a very trusting soul, deeply insecure, prone to panic attacks, but is in fact a lot stronger than she thinks. She's in the mold of Audrey Hepburn in "Wait Until Dark" or Mia Farrow in "Rosemary's Baby. The role entails firing a shotgun and she must be able to scream without losing her voice.
GREG SANDERSON Age 25-30. Greg is a Ph.D. student. He is quite handsome despite a stiff academic exterior. He can be disarmingly klutzy at times, distant and preoccupied at others. He views the world from a cool, scientific perspective, though cracks in his protective shield do appear - especially in his troubled relationship with his sister Laura.
GEORGE WILLOWBY Age 40-70. George is on the surface a loveable old farmer who loves to spin tall tales - especially to city folk. He has an easy and often raucous laugh, especially at his own jokes. He develops a warm relationship with Jan but, as we discover,he has his demons too. He can be scary when he gets angry. The role requires a fight sequence.
LAURA SANDERSON Age 25-35. Laura is strikingly beautiful, sophisticated, cool and distant by nature, although capable of turning on the charm when she feels it will serve her purpose. She is a businesswoman and has little time for Jan's vulnerability, although in her own way she is just as vulnerable.
Sweet, vulnerable Jan has had a nervous breakdown. To help her recover, her husband Peter rents a remote cabin in the country. Their neighbor is a strange farmer who delights in telling gruesome ghost stories. Then Peter’s beautiful, sophisticated sister arrives, and frightening events begin to occur. Is Jan still ill and imagining things? Is Peter trying to help her – or drive her crazy? Is the farmer an ally or an enemy? And what’s really going on with the sister? A classic thriller in the Alfred Hitchcock mode in its Los Angeles premiere.
