Amelia(movie)

### About

The Bentley Films Episode III: Amelia, or just "Amelia", was a film released on the Last Minute Films YouTube channel on June 3, 2015. It was created as a result of the friend group being bored and deciding to make a movie. We wanted to keep it simple, something we could do without a ton of special effects, so we decided to make a simple movie about a scientist who turns a little girl into a dog.

### Making

When we decided to make a movie, somehow the idea of a biker gang came up, there was a home gym at the house so we decided we could look tough by being a gang and working out. We thought it would be funny to then counteract that by watching Caillou. For every action scene we needed soldiers that would die, so we had to just remove a couple characters from the scene to allow some people to kill others. We also didn't have enough bikes, so one character had to run, which is how we decided that he simply was unable to ride a bike.

This movie was filmed on a 720p handheld camera as well as an iPhone 5. There were no costumes or props for this movie other than what we had lying around. This included airsoft guns, an american girl doll, a dog, some textbooks, and some airsoft masks.

### Plot

The movie starts out by introducing the Rough Riders, a tough biker gang. Some of the members had names, some didn't. There was Bacbouc, the one who couldn't ride, Andy Brown, the mail man, Unforgettable, a guy, Brick McJenson, the leader, and Alfred Fischer, the one with a daughter, Amelia. After working out and watching Caillou together, the group gets into a heated debate, eventually causing Bacbouc to storm off, vowing revenge, but not before determining the Alfred's daugter was the most important thing to him.

Bacbouc hatched a plan, and that night, he struck. He snuck into the Rough Riders hideout and stole Amelia, replacing her with a pillow. No one noticed somehow, even though the Rough Riders all sleep in the same room. When they awoke, they noticed Amelia was gone and grabbed their weapons to run and find her, but with no luck.

They decided that they couldn't do anything alone and called the police, and instantly a man appeared at the door. A man by the name of Bentley Wilson, a cop who claimed he had been in service during the assassination of JFK. After a long and painful interview where the Rough Riders managed to hide their guns, they determined that Bacbouc could have been the culprit.

Meanwhile, Bacbouc in his own lab was figuring out what he could do to Amelia. After some research, he removed her from the cage he was keeping her in and brought her to his machine. After turning a few dials and pressing some buttons, he removed Amelia from the other side of the machine. He had turned her into a dog.

The Rough Riders decide to raid Bacbouc's lab despite not knowing for sure if he is the culprit, and Bentley agrees to join them. Andy Brown is busy on his mail route and Unforgettable was probably doing something unforgettable, so they were not present for the beginning of the raid. They manage to take out some of Bacbouc's guards to get inside, but as they get inside, Bentley is shot and killed by one of the guards. One conspiracy theorized that Bentley wosn't kil, but the Rough Riders, believing him to be dead, gave him a brief burial before moving on to find Bacbouc.

Bacbouc fled the lab, but just as he was leaving Andy Brown and Unforgettable showed up to trap him in. Surrounded by the Rough Riders, he had nowhere to go and handed Amelia (Dog) back to Alfred. The Rough Riders couldn't forgive this offense, so they killed him. He fell into the pool below and died, or so it seemed.

The Rough Riders made their way into Bacbouc's lab to try and figure out how to turn Amelia back into a human. As they were struggling to make sense of the machines, the ghost of Bentley Wilson appeared to show them how to use the machine. After successfully returning Amelia to human form, the Rough Riders left the lab and did not blow it up.

After the credits, Bacbouc, still alive is shown getting out of the pool and vowing revenge against the Rough Riders and Alfred.
