Army of Darkness

A BARREN TREE

Sprouts buds, they swell forming leaves which change to the brilliant colors of fall, then drop.

A FROST

Covers Ash.

ICICLES

On the ceiling of the cave melt. The water drops down onto Ash's face. He stirs.

ASH

Awakens in a heap of rusted scrap, which was once the Deathcoaster. His clothes and armor having deteriorated, he is buck ass naked as he staggers to the mouth of the cave. He digs at the rocks that block the cave's entrance. Sunlight streams into the hole he has created.

EXT. HILLSIDE

ASH climbs from the cave and steps into the sunlight.

ASH (V.O.)

And when I awoke...

ASH

Beholds...

A FUTURISTIC CITY

After the next Nuclear war: A dead land.

ASH'S POV

A FRACTURED CLOCK TOWER lays sprawled on its side. The time of mankind's death frozen on the cracked face of the clock.

A SHATTERED BRIDGE

Abruptly ends, a third of the way across a river it once spanned. Upon it, rest heaps of futuristic, yet rusted taxicabs piled eight deep in some places.

CAMERA PULLS BACK from a stunned Ash, amidst the atomized pieces of iron and bone.

ASH (V.O.)

... I found that I had slept too long.
 

ASH

Is so small a dot now, and so far away, that we almost can't hear his terrified SCREAM!

CUT TO BLACK

THE END
