Micro-hell!: Fleshed Out Treatment

Kitchen – morning

Empty dog bowl with the name Moses written on the side. Dog with cross on his collar runs around in circles waiting for whatever his master is frying on the stove. We see that his master is a priest (Father Melton) and that he is frying a burrito in the pan. We can see the street outside the kitchen window.

We hear a car stopping and zooming off and then we see a microwave sitting by the side of the road where there was once nothing. Father Melton goes out of frame and we next see him coming through the door of the kitchen with the microwave in his arms. Moses sniffs the cord.
Father Melton plugs the cord in, and puts the burrito on a plate, and wipes his greasy fingers on his clothes as he places the plate in the microwave, presses a few buttons, hits start and the machine whirs to life. (Does something religious-related while he's waiting? Praying maybe? Should I focus on priest or the dog? I could do both and show priest praying, not moving, and then show the dog doing dog things, like lying down, looking at the microwave waiting for it to finish, cross fade to him scratching behind his ear, cross fade to scratching the leg of the table the microwave is set on, crossfade to him licking himself til the “done” bell rings and he perks to attention...?)

Father Melton opens his eyes from prayer and rubs his hands together or twiddles his fingers in anticipation, presses the open door button and much to his surprise, there's nothing on the plate. He looks on either side of the microwave, then lifts it up to check under. No burrito. He then swirls around and gives Moses a dirty look, putting both hands on his hips. We see the door of the microwave shut on its own.

Father Melton swirls around and stoops down to inspect what's going on with the thing, getting closer to the appliance when the microwave door flies open and the burrito shoots out of it, ricocheting through the kitchen. Father Melton ducks, Moses barks.

Then, suddenly, the door slams shut again and the whole thing starts rattling and shaking. A very bright light shoots out in rays through the door as if a small sun was inside the chamber and we hear strange sounds like a chant (or maybe it should be laughter?) Moses jumps into Father Melton's arms and they look wide-eyed at each other, and then back to the microwave.
Father Melton pulls a crucifix off the wall, crosses himself, and holds the cross as the microwave continues to shake, fire spewing out of the chamber! Moses tries to wriggle out of Father Melton's arms, and Father Melton fights to keep him from getting loose while still warding off the microwave with the cross, but Moses manages to wriggle out.

Father Melton screams, “Stop!!” and just then the microwave dies down. The lights and noise disappear. Father Melton inspects the cross and scratches the back of his neck, wondering if it really worked when we hear Moses barking. Father Melton pokes his head around to see Moses and we see him with his tail wagging and the cord in his mouth.

Father Melton, overjoyed that not only is Moses still alive but that he saved them from the demonic microwave, outstretches his arms to Moses and Moses leaps up in his arms again, licking him all over.

Outside of the house – from the street

We see the microwave flying out of the window, landing and settling back in the place where Charley originally found it.

We then see a passerby approaching the microwave. He picks it up, puts it under his arm and continues on down the street.

The three prong electric plug on the end of the dangling black cord suddenly comes to life, turning into the pointed end of a devil's tail.

The End.
