    Description

    This is a
    vintage original Revised Final Draft script
    from the 1980's made-for-television remake of the classic 1956 horror thriller drama,
    THE BAD SEED
    , broadcast on February 7, 1985 and
    directed by Paul Wendkos
    . Based upon the novel by William March and the play by Maxwell Anderson, fatal freak accidents force a widow (Lynn Redgrave) to realize that her precious 9 year-old daughter (Blair Brown) was born to kill. The cast includes David Carradine, Carrie Wells, Richard Kiley, David Ogden Stiers, Chad Allen, Weldon Bleilor, and Christa Denton.
    Written by George Eckstein, this Revised Final Draft script is dated March 23, 1984 as first revised on 11/06/84 (blue) and second revised on 11/14/84 (pink). It consists of a total of 116 pages on white stock with the previously-stated revisions on blue and pink stock. It is complete in very fine condition with light signs of wear along the right edge of the back cover. There are no missing pages, tears, stains, or other flaws, nor are there any handwritten notations present within.
    Patty McCormack, star of the original 1956 version, was offered the role of Monica Breedlove. However, after reading the script, she promptly turned down the part. An early draft of the teleplay has Christine reading Rachel a "different bedtime story", in order to test her for a reaction, prior to giving the girl Monica's sleeping pills. This new story chronicles how King Ahab of Israel had Naboth of Jezreel stoned to death for the latter's vineyard, after Naboth refused to sell (he was appalled by Ahab's plan to turn it into a vegetable garden). When asked what she thinks of Naboth's being murdered by Ahab - who already owned many vineyards, most of which were far greater than the one Naboth prized - Rachel callously replies that Naboth should have just sold the vineyard...and that it's a wonder Ahab didn't just kill him for it, being king and all. This steels Christine for the sad task which lies ahead of her.
