[Daytime. A New Zealand landscape of green trees with a dirty track road through them. A white car drives down the road.]
[Nicky, a bearded man in his 30s, wears hiking gear and a rucksack. He is in a bush known as Loop Track. Ian, another man in his 30s, wears amateurish hiking gear and appears nervous and uncomfortable.] Nicky: Big on hiking? Ian: Yeah.
Nicky: I'm Nicky, by the way. Ian: Uh... nice to meet you.
[The two men reach a waterfall and celebrate.] Nicky: He-he-hey! We made it.
[Evening. A wooden cabin, a hut where hikers rest for the night, has the lights on.]
[Austin, a Black man, and his wife Monica, a blonde white woman, are inside the hut.] Nicky: This is Monica. This is Austin. They're from Australia.
[Daytime. Ian, Austin and Monica rest by a lake, while Nicky tries to catch fish with his bare hands.]
Austin: It's so quiet here. Monica: Ian, are you alright? [All are getting ready to continue hiking.]
[Ian walks between tall and thin tree trunks as he looks over his shoulder suspiciously.] Ian: Do you ever feel like you're being watched?
Nicky: By the government? Ian: No. By something in the trees.
[In a hut, at night, Ian flicks through photos on a digital camera.] Austin: What are you looking for?
[Nighttime. Ian is in the bush and hears a strange distant chittering. It grows closer and Ian runs between the trees.]
[A caption reads, "DARK SKY FILMS".]
[In a dark clearing in the Loop Track bush, Austin, Monica, Nicky look confused as they talk to Ian, who is holding a torch.] Ian: Did you see it? Austin: See what?
Ian: The thing that was chasing me.
[Day time, Loop Track path surrounded by tall trees. Then close-up on Ian staring at the path and seemingly lost in his thoughts.]
[In a hut, Monica talks to Ian.] Monica: Things can seem, like, way bigger than they actually are.
[Close-up on a dense part of the Loop Track bush, then on Ian and Monica in the bush staring at something.]
[Ian warns Nicky as he's about to step into a goat trap.] Ian: Hey, watch out!
[Ian finds traces of blood on a tree trunk.]
[Austin talks to Ian inside a hut.] Austin: Sometimes they're not even there, maybe.
[Close-up on a plant followed by quick- succession shots of Ian hiking in the Loop Track bush.]
[Aerial shot of the Loop Track bush.]
[Inside a hut at night, Nicky, Monica and Austin talk at a table, while Ian sits on his own nearby.] Ian: You all think I'm seeing things that don't exist.
[Daytime in the bush. Nicky, leaning against a tree trunk, talks to Ian. Ian looks nervously on from behind trees, as he sees Monica's body being dragged through the bush.] Nicky: But you know that it doesn't exist.
[Inside a hut, Ian sits waiting as he holds an axe.] Nicky: Right?
[Ian sees the shadows of a creature circling the outside of the hut. It chitters and thumps the hut's door.]
[Ian gets up and stands by the door as the creature continues to thump it from the outside.]
[Silence. Then a flash of the door being burst open.]
[A caption reads, "UNKNOWN".]
[Daytime in the bush, Monica and Austin talk to Ian, who is shaking and crying.] Ian: I know you think I'm crazy.
[Austin punches Ian.]
[A caption reads, "UNSEEN".]
[In the bush, Ian looks up as he finds the body of a girl hanging in a tree branch.] Ian: He killed these girls.
[Flash shots of the creature's foot.]
[A caption reads, "UNRELENTING".]
[Monica and Austin continue to talk to Ian in the bush.] Monica: The... big creature? Ian: Yes!
[Close-up on the creature's foot entering the hut at night and towering over Ian.] Ian: You said it wasn't real.
[Close-up on the creature's flickering eye, followed by quick-succession shots of Ian, Nicky and Austin.]
[Close-up on Monica, who gasps as flesh squelches.]
[Austin addresses her.] Austin: You alright?
[Monica is suddenly pulled back into the trees behind her.]
[Aerial shot of the bush with low hanging clouds.]
[Various quick shots of Ian and Austin running, then Ian narrowly avoiding being stabbed by a large black beak, then Nicky and Ian by a ditch where a torch falls in, and Ian being thrown against a shelf in a hut.]
Austin: Monster! [In the bush, Ian screams.]
[Shots in quick succession of Austin and Ian, then of the creature's foot holding Austin down.]
[A caption reads, "LOOP TRACK".]
[Daytime, in the bush. A frightened Ian looks on trying to see where the creature is. The creature chitters next to Ian, who has his back to it.]
[A black screen, then Ian, with blood on his face, fights the creature with his bare hands.]
[A caption showing various end credits.]

Writer-director and actor Tom Sainsbury, known for his comedic flair in such works as Wellington Paranormal and Guns Akimbo, shows his hidden passion for thrillers and human drama with Loop Track, his latest collaboration with Chillbox Creative which promises an electrifying journey into the unknown.
Highly anxious Ian Thompson (Sainsbury) sets off on a solo trek in the New Zealand bush for some respite from the stress of everyday life. His plans for uninterrupted solitude are scuppered however, when he encounters Nicky (Hayden J Weal) and other hikers, only exacerbating his paranoia. As Ian's grip on reality weakens, he becomes convinced they are being followed. Miles from civilisation, their journey turns into a fight for survival as Ian's fears manifest into a surreal battle against an unseen threat lurking in the wilderness. Is it all just in his head? Or is someone, or something, really out there?
Having already triumphed twice in the challenging 48Hours film competition, Tom Sainsbury delivers a gripping and tense psychological thriller that deftly explores the subjects of isolation and paranoia. Intertwining thrilling scares with moments of off-kilter humour, Loop Track is an unforgettable experience that lingers in the mind well beyond the closing credits.
