New girls in school fiction are generally one of two types. The first type (the O'Sullivan Twins, Elizabeth Allen) do not want to go to school and are dragged there kicking and screaming, to cause as much havoc as possible before realizing how wonderful the school is and becoming model citizens. The second type are keen to get to school, having read stories of pillow fights and midnight feasts, and are of a sensible, jolly, glowing-cheeked disposition which means they will settle down immediately.
"The movie wasn't even scary," Alfie Booth complains. "My movie will be a lot better than that." Alfie plans to make a Super-8 Dracula movie starring his brother Leonard.
