JEREMY’S DATE (5-page short horror screenplay) by BRYCE SMINK

An attractive teenage boy, Jeremy, has a date tonight! But after getting to know him a bit, we find out that the date is going to be a whole lot more sinister.

We open as our high school teen protagonist, Jeremy, rides his bike victoriously, unable to wipe away that proud smile off his face. Once home, his upbeat mood seems to catch the attention of his older brother, Griffin, who, like most older brothers, likes to give his younger sibling a good ribbing. There’s this look in Bryce’s eyes, that unmistakable look many of us had when we’re younger – he’s in love for the very first time. And tonight, he has a date!

Though skeptical, Griffin seems legitimately happy for his little brother.

As Jeremy gets ready for his big date, brushing his teeth, wearing his nicest outfit and spritzing himself with a little cologne, it feels like a typical scene from a classic teen movie. But, once Jeremy arrives to see his “date”, the story gets gleefully dark and twisted and we understand why his older brother was so skeptical.

Wonderfully demented, this pitch black, teen tale will for sure make you squirm in the best way possible. And with social distancing precautions in effect, this would an excellent story to film on the cheap while maintaining proper safety measures.

BUDGET: Low. Three actors (one of them a corpse) and pretty much two locations (a house and an underground drain pipe/tunnel).

ABOUT THE WRITER: Currently a junior in high school, Bryce has been writing scripts and short stories for about five years. He originally had the idea for Jeremy’s Date when he was in middle school, and the idea just stuck with him ever since. Bryce especially loves stories with dark subject matter but enjoys adding a comedic twist on them. Though Bryce lives in Texas, he plans on attending NYC to pursue a career as an English teacher while also pursuing his dream job as a screenwriter. Bryce can be reached at: brycesmink(a)outlook.com
