Bloody Crayons

A remote island, weather‑worn cabins, and the restless sea set the stage for a graduate‑class film project that promises both creative freedom and uneasy isolation. Nine friends arrive at the summer house belonging to Olivia’s family, intent on capturing their final short film amid crashing waves and an occasional storm. The island’s quiet is broken only by the low murmur of the caretaker, Mang Pedring, whose presence adds a faint, unsettling texture to the otherwise picturesque retreat. From the moment the group steps onto the sand, a thin line forms between the excitement of artistic collaboration and the sense that something unseen is watching.

The centerpiece of the cast is the shy and thoughtful Eunice, whose quiet demeanor draws the admiration of the more introspective Kiko and the earnest newcomer John. Olivia balances confidence with hidden vulnerability, while her boyfriend Kenly navigates the pressures of leadership and romance. Justin, the loyal confidant, Richalaine, the vivacious party‑goer, Marie, the polished classmate, and Gerard, the ever‑ready jokester, each bring distinct energies that both complement and clash with one another. Beneath their camaraderie lie undercurrents of rivalry, unspoken secrets, and the subtle tension that often accompanies a group on the brink of adulthood.

Into this charged atmosphere they introduce a night‑time pastime called “Bloody Crayons,” a twisted spin on truth‑or‑dare that uses colored crayons to dictate daring challenges. The game’s oddly ceremonial feel amplifies the island’s eerie ambience, hinting at the thin veil between harmless fun and something far more disturbing. As the night deepens and the storm rages, the friends begin to sense that the island’s isolation may be more than a backdrop—it could be a catalyst for a lurking menace that turns their creative venture into a test of trust, courage, and survival.
