Walking with Demons

Tender Walks the Demon: https://www.wattpad.com/story/88422380-tender-walks-the-demon

Movies. Don't you love them? Like books, they're a fantastic way to escape, be thrilled, moved and to laugh. I'm a fan of all different sorts of films, but one of my favourites is horror.

I don't watch them to be scared, as they generally don't scare me, but I like to be thrilled and to be dragged to the edge of my seat by unseen hands and left on the precipice of anticipation. The psychological aspects get to me more than gore or lashings of full cream dairy blood. I like to ride the imagination rollercoaster and see what unearthly things the creators can come up with.

Coming in December, there's a new film coming. That film is Incarnate, starring Carice van Houten, Aaron Eckhart and David Mazouz.

Just with a cast with those headliners, the film has a head start. Carice van Houten flies in on her dragon from Game of Thrones. David Mazouz has his butler drive him in whilst he learns the ways of the Batman in Gotham and Aaron Eckhart drops by on Air Force one as Mr. President from the falling of Olympus, London and, soon, Angel. These alone are enough to excite me.

I first saw David Mazouz in the Kiefer Sutherland show Touch, where he played an autistic child who never spoke and had strange abilities. I enjoyed the show and thought his performance was excellent. Being a troubled child under such circumstances must have been a tough character to play. When I saw him as the young Bruce Wayne, I was instantly hooked. He plays the awkward superhero-to-be perfectly.

Aaron Eckhart has been an actor for years, appearing in a huge variety of films, such as Erin Brockovich, The Missing, The Core, Paycheck and The Wicker Man. He really came to my attention as Harvey Dent in The Dark Knight which, of course, links him already with David. Since then, he's met Frankenstein and been the president twice (with a third incarnation on the way).

Carice van Houten is someone I admit I'm not overly familiar with. Again, she has appeared on screen for a good few years. The first film I saw which she appeared in was Tom Cruise's Valkyrie. She has had a varied career, including Repo Men and The Simpsons but will, no doubt, be most widely known for her portrayal of Melisandre in the mighty Game of Thrones.

And so to Incarnate.

Horror films need to explore new boundaries. People are becoming numb to the same old themes regurgitated shown slightly differently and so it takes something special to pique the interest. Possession is popular right now – at least in media (I'm not sure it ever will be in reality!) – with shows such as Preacher and The Exorcist.

Incarnate is different. I'm a gadget and science geek so love the twist the creators have put onto the traditional demonic tale. In this film, Eckhart plays a scientist who is able to enter the consciousness of the possessed to battle with the creature who has taken over the person. Mazouz is the afflicted child. Using science as the weapon is a novel idea and, when I was asked to write Tender Walks the Demon to accompany the movie, it was so good to be able to think of other alternatives.

I'd recently had a course of hypnotherapy to help me lose weight. I wasn't particularly overweight, I just wasn't happy with my eating habits and would have preferred not to snack so easily. The hypnotherapy worked brilliantly (I lost 14lb and rarely snack) and, after speaking to the therapist about the cases he'd worked on and come across – including apparent possession – having this as the method used to combat the entity possessing my main character seemed ideal.

In my story, Brian, the boy, loves to colour and loses himself in the 'adult' colouring books containing the much more complex designs. My own wife and 5 year old are the same. My wife is currently working on an Alice in Wonderland themed book and my 5 year old has an animal one. She (my daughter) loves the intricacy of the pages and likes to have the colours she uses symmetrical, keeping as tightly to the lines as her little hands will allow. She can be so involved in what she's doing, she really doesn't hear me when I speak to her.

Or at least, I think that's the reason..... Hmmm.....

So there we had the temperament of the boy and the method of which his possession is battled. Remember, just before I wrote Suffer the Little Children for Sinister II, my daughter is the one who told me her imaginary friend Nathaniel, who was supposedly standing right beside me, could be mine forever...

Perhaps Brian isn't the only one possessed.

Incarnate is released on December 2nd, 2016 and is from the makers of The Purge: Anarchy and Sinister II. I have been blessed to work with them on both of these previous films, creating Mr. Composure  for The Purge and Suffer the Little Children for Sinister II. I hope our creative relationship lasts for a long time as it's certainly horrific fun and they make some brilliant films!

Incarnate and Tender Walks the Demon has a cool new twist. I have only written the first four chapters. The final, fifth chapter is still needing to be made. That's where you come in. We'd like you to write that final chapter. That's right, you get to say where the story will go!

Take my first four chapters and decide what will happen. Will Brian, Kimberely and Derek survive? Will the entity be destroyed? Will there be a happy ending? It's all up to you. Write, in up to 3,000 words, what you think should happen, post it on your profile and tag it #incarnate, and you could win a fantastic Wattpadilicious prize!

The winning story ending will be added to my story on the Incarnate movie page. A custom graphic novel will be created incorporating your ending. The winner will receive an Incarnate poster signed by Jason Blum! And it will all be announced on the official Wattpad IncarnateMovie@IncarnateMovie profile!

So, what are you waiting for? Happy writing and good luck! I can't wait to see what you come up with!
