SYNOPSIS
An introverted teenage girl searches for her boyfriend when he mysteriously disappears after she convinces him to take her virginity. Hurt and feeling abandoned, CJ searches for Cole, but she starts to receive confusing threatening phone calls from him as if she was the one who abandon him. What she doesn't know is that he's actually much closer than she could ever guess.
I Want You Inside Me is a horror story about a teenage girl who wants to be "like one of the boys" and pursue sexual experiences without getting into a relationship, but when she does her suppressed desire for love and connection takes over causing her body to CONSUME her lovers whole. Tonally, this film is two parts body horror (Polanski & David Cronenberg) and one part teenage drama (Clueless & My So Called Life).
CHARACTER BREAKDOWNS
JOY (17): CJ's loudmouthed best friend. Joy is the cool girl of the duo, the one that's audacious enough to sneak CJ out of the house while her Dad is awake downstairs. In terms of the classic teen drama duo in My So Called Life, Joy is Rayanne to CJ's Angela.
COLE (early-20s): A smooth talker, and a college party boy who's drifting through life at the moment without any real direction. He spends his summers working a part-time job at a gas station, cruising in his car and getting stoned with his friends. He's lanky, and beer and pizza fed.
SPENCE (early-20s): At first appearance, Spence seems to be just another one of the boys. He's brooding, and usually only gives short answer responses. Once you get to know him he opens up. He's a smart and sensitive young man who, at the moment, is lost in a masculine world of getting wasted and picking-up chicks. Athletic build.
TOMMY (early-20s): Tommy is the leader of the pack, the rouser of the party, the guy who comes up with the plan and gets his friends to execute it. He's the most shameless of them all. Tall and average body.
