The Last Child Emily Marie Johnson

The story follows Kendra, a single mother desperate to get her lost childhood memory back. In a last ditch effort she agrees to begin an experimental type of therapy. When Kendra breaks the rules and tries to get her memory back by herself, the disturbing - yet benign - dreams she was having turn into hellish visions. Her chronic nightmares start infringing upon reality. The floodgates of her memory burst open and she discovers just how torturous her past really was. Her search for answers then takes her to the asylum where her real parents are being held and kept sedated. Kendra learns the depths of the congenital disease that has plagued her family for generations. However, it becomes obvious that there's something much more sinister at the root of this "disease." To spare her child from the same fate she must risk it all to stop the cycle of evil. Finalist in the 13Horror.com Fil & Screenplay Contest.
