Synopsis:

Revisit Five Nights at Freddy's with less humor and spoon feeding to preserve the tension. Adjustments are made to the characters for a stronger story.

Intentions:

With the upcoming release of Five Night's at Freddy's 2, I wanted to take a shot at the first film. I think the movie worked just fine but it had too many funny moments that downplayed the tension. While I didn't mind the cameos by Mat Pat and Cory, they didn't seem to be relevant for the plot. Lines of dialogue I felt hinted things too early or were just included to spoon feed the audience were taken out. A fair amount of editing was done to help strengthen the story while still keeping the humor that did work.

Change List:

- Added more saturation, increased the gamma, and removed the yellow tint for a more vibrant, natural look. - Removed the flashback of Mike's security incident. - Slightly trimmed William Afton's run down on Freddy's during Mike's first night. - Removed Mat Pat's cameo. - Cut Jeff suggesting that Mike should be killed. - Removed Jane telling Jeff to not mess up the break in plan. - Removed Ballon Boy's second jump scare. - Cut Foxy's shadow appearing in the surveillance footage. - Removed the bloody eyes jump scare from Foxy's ghost kid. - Shortened the amount of time the camera lingers on Vanessa after she tells Mike he'll be fine if he does his job. - Trimmed Hank fleeing for his life and removed his screams when Jeff watches through the monitors. - Cut Mike saying "It's them" when he looks at Abby's drawing of the ghost kids. - The entire fort building montage is removed. - Cut Mike and Vanessa in the parking lot after Abby's incident with the animatronics. - Removed Mike at the pharmacy. - Cut Mike saying yes to the blond ghost kid when he initially accepts to stay with his brother. - Removed Foxy approaching Mike. - Removed CoryxKenshin's cameos. - Replaced Mike telling Vanessa he said yes to the kids with an AI line saying they wouldn't take no for an answer. - Removed Abby wondering where Golden Freddy went. - Changed the static shot of the Yellow Rabbit drawing with a slight zoom in. - Removed Vanessa explaining that the animatronics don't want to hurt anyone and are under the control of William. - Removed a lingering shot of Vanessa when Mike looks up at her. - Cut Mike demanding Vanessa to help him. - Cut Abby telling Mike they should get out after she is saved from Chica. - Removed William laughing when he confronts Mike in an effort to make him seem less cartoonish. - Removed Abby showing concern for Foxy after Vanessa saves her. - Cut William's back and forth between Vanessa so he reveals his face right after she intervenes. - Replaced Mike remembering Vanessa's words about the animatronics being controlled with Dr. Lillian explaining how images can a tool for understanding the world. - Removed Abby grunting when she approaches the drawings. - Cut William asking what Abby did. - Removed Abby saying "They can see you now" and "They know what you did". - William unintentionally sets off the springlocks when he lashes out at the animatronics.
