Plot Overview and Reasons

Seven teenage girls find a book of witchcraft and use it to start a

Coven. Each girl slowly starts to use black magic until they accidently summon the devil. The devil then

starts to charm them all and possesses them with the seven

deadly sins, ultimately turning them against eachother in a final

bloodbath.

There is a gap in the market for Witchcraft films and we feel that

Malus could do to Witchcraft films what Paranormal Activity did to

found footage films.

Audience and Certificate

Malus will be certified a 15 which will give us scope to use strong

language where necessary, drug use, violence and scenes of a

sexual nature but not to a drastic extent.

The BBFC states that the use of strong language can be used in context and sexual scenes may

be briefly infused into the storyline.

We are allowed to show gore without focusing on the pain as

result.
