Mall Mannequin Horror Escape

Prompt

CHARACTER LOCK: the main character is a man in his 30s, dark casual jacket, , short dark hair — consistent into Part 2. Muted color grading, natural sound throughout, tension score entering early. [0-1s] A woman leans close to a mannequin to inspect an outfit — its head turns toward her unexpectedly. [1-2s] It steps off its stand and reaches for her, pulling her out of frame. [2-3s] Wide shot: the four other mannequins nearby begin moving too, stepping down from their platforms. [3-4s] They move toward nearby shoppers with quick, unnatural motion. [4-5s] People scatter and call out in alarm through the section. [5-6s] One figure reaches a shopper near a clothing rack, pulling him off balance. [6-7s] Wide shot: concern spreads through the main corridor, people moving quickly away. [7-8s] The main character ducks behind a support pillar, assessing the situation. [8-9s] He spots a storage room nearby and waves urgently for others to follow. [9-10s] A group of shoppers hurries toward him and into the room. [10-11s] He pulls the last few inside and shuts the door firmly. [11-12s] Interior: the room full of worried people, some holding each other close. [12-13s] He leans against the door, then notices a wall mirror reflecting the corridor. [13-14s] Through the mirror he sees one figure standing still over a man on the floor. [14-15s] Close-up: his expression tightens with concern. [15-16s] He spots three more people hiding behind a distant pillar through the mirror. [16-17s] He glances at the room, then carefully opens the door a crack. [17-18s] The sound draws a nearby figure's attention toward the doorway. [18-19s] He grabs a life-size cardboard standee and sets it out in the corridor. [19-20s] The figure moves toward the standee instead, momentarily distracted. [20-21s] He slips out and moves low along the wall, away from it. [21-22s] Tracking shot: he hurries toward the three people behind the pillar. [22-23s] Close-up: their worried faces as he reaches them, signaling quiet. [23-24s] He motions for them to follow, checking the corridor both ways. [24-25s] Wide shot: the four of them move quickly back toward the storage room. [25-26s] Behind them, another figure's attention turns toward the movement. [26-27s] It begins following, picking up speed. [27-28s] He urges the group to move faster, glancing back. [28-29s] They reach the storage room door, hands on the handle. [29-30s]: the door swings open, light spilling out, the figure closing the distance behind them. Cut to black. Natural sound throughout — fabric movement, calls of alarm, footsteps, door sounds, breathing — with a tense instrumental score building steadily. No text overlay, no watermark. Varied camera work — close-ups, wide shots, mirror reflections, tracking shots. Natural retail lighting.
