I'm directing a horror movie this summer. It's gonna be a real basic slasher movie, two serial killers after a couple of teens. The killers drag victims back to a toolshed where they are tortured and killed in oh so horrible ways, as thought up through my sick mind.

I have two requests:

1. I NEED A TITLE! I have a bacic script and a fairly thought out game plan, but I can't think of a title! "The Toolshed" is too plain, and one thought was "Bloodshed", but, as you can see in this forum, it's already been used. PLEASE GIMME ANY TITLE IDEAS YOU HAVE!

2. Any cool kill/dialogue/effects scenes you guys think would fit well. I've got a few in mind, but I know there are others on this site who could come up with good ones, too.

I've never asked for help before, so PLEASE someone take this somewhat seriously, and this is open to anyone.

Thanks, guys.

The way I think up names for horror movies is to think up heavy metal band names. Its easier and they end up sounding pretty good. Youll probobly think these suck though...just ideas...

Beyond Madness
Beyond Death
Beyond Macabre

god know you can do whatever you want with the word "beyond"


Blood Killers
Blood Brother
Macabre Fantasy
Cryptic Fantasy
Killing Temptation
Distorted Minds
Sadistic Desire (my fav)
Substratum

you could change the word "killing" into something different and make it not so typical. That would make that a really good idea.

Alky,can you give us a little more? Maby some plot without giving to much away? That would help. There is only so much you can do with toolshed. Have you ever noticed how many movies start with,Night of or,the night of?

Of course. You guys are awesome, giving me so much feedback. So here goes- the basic storyline:

************************************************** **
Two buddies are on their way to visit some friends in Illinois. They are coming from college to visit for a weekend. One of the two starts having repeating dreams of himself and his friend dying, over and over, though he never sees his killer's face. He starts noticing small things from his dreams, such as a watch, or shoes, that appear in real life. Kinda like deja vu-ish.

Anyway, somehow (I haven't decided quite how), they're going to get lost in the forest, and eventually one dies. The other escapes, dillusional.

He finally finds his way to the cabin and meets the friends he originaly intended to visit, but can't remember what exactly happened. They discover his pal's body in the trunk of the car.

He pleads and pleads, telling them it wasn't him.

One by one his friends start being knocked off, and he strives to find answers to clear himself of the murders and stop the rest from happening.
************************************************** **

Kind of lame, I know, but hell it's just for fun and I'm gaining experience. I'm loving all the suggestions, please keep them coming, you guys rock.

If it means anything, each and every one of you will appear in the credits for helping haha.

THANKS, and keep 'em coming, all the feedback so far is great!

The Blood Shed (or just Blood Shed)
Chop Shack
For deaths there's a lot you can do with a good toolshed although I like the more brutal things like slamming somebody's head in one of those big tool chests. Another good one...

Have an eye hook screwed into the wall with some thin stainless aircraft cable attached to it. Have the cable come out then wrap once around somebody's neck and the have it attached to a brace (one of those handheld drills that rotate) which is fastened in a vice. As the brace is turned the cable tightens around it and the neck until finally the cable begins to cut and you can go as far as decapitation.

Obviously pneumatic tools like die grinders and nail guns. Oh, an overlooked vicious tool is the wire wheel side of a bench grinder, ouch.

..do you have any idea how those two slasher guys gonna look like ? ....one of the the most important aspects of a slasher...

we dont need a Batman and Robin in the slasher genre....so they both have to look cool........not like Robin

my idea for a title.....try to find two suitable names for your slasher characters...

eksample: Myers and Ghostface (not vs)

i think Arthur had the origional shed torn down.

that could be part of the plot .. they had another shed, but it was torn down.

this would have to be shown in a prologue sequence of course - or maybe during the opening credits.

If you do any hacking with hatchets or axes make them dull so there's some bone chipping and the killer needs a couple swings not just one clean cut. Mmmmmm gore.

OOOOOO I know! A big electric drain auger, the 100 foot ones with the one inch cable and the big root auger on it, now THAT sounds like fun. A plate compactor would be fun, an areator, ok I'll stop now I'm just overwhelmed with horrific ideas.

So somebody goes into this shed and looks around when all of the sudden from behind we see the killer slam a pitchfork into the victim's shoulders and push him up against the wall. The kid struggles with the pitchfork blades in his shoulders pinning him against the wall, blood pours down his back as he squirms helplessly. The madman picks up a landscape scraper with his free hand (it doesn't take much power to pin somebody against the wall if there are sharp prongs digging into his back)...
http://www.2and2.net/Uploads/Images/027997008406.jpg
and then slams the chipping blade into the back of the victims neck severing his spinal column and then maybe he'll continue until the head rolls from the victim's shoulders before he pulls the pitchfork away and allows the corpse to hit the floor with a sickening thud.

Killer could take a swing at a victim's head with a long handled bulb planter and knock him down. While the victim is down the killer could put the bulb planter against his head (side, front, back, whatever) and step down hard.

was going to tape it at our local (unused) mini golf place ..
where a crazed caretaker went on a murderous rampage with a weedeater (which never actually did anything other that sting)

but there would be some kills .. one being the killer takes an oilcan spout from a can of oil .. stalks the victim, then thrusts it into his chest - using it to lift him off the ground .. all the while blood gushing out of the spout to the sounds of 'ding, ding, ding' like at the gas pumps ..

as it was an idea around the time of Jaws .. i wanted to have someone being stabbed with a machette or something .. and first comes a guyser of blood, then articles of food, then coat hangers, licence plates, etc .. all splashing onto the killers feet from the victims wound.

alas - i never actually had the drive and ambition to do it.


my friend and i years later were musing over what we could do to make the most offensive film possible .. thereby getting negative coverage = publicity.

we came up wit the idea "the Tards" 2 developementally handicapped men living together ..

basically just a day at the mall...

once scene .. one of the tards goes to the bathroom, 20 minutes later comes out - crying, naked, and covered in shit ... so he goes to the large fountain to wash off...

we had several horrible little scenes like that planned...

the climax of course .. would be in a china shop.

since then .. people have actually done similar movies ..

again .. we were all talk - no action.

You know those large metal stakes that chase moles away by creating vibration in the earth and they run on batteries? What if one was planted into a victim (head, body... whatever) and as the blood poured out and the victim died the stake kept vibrating (maybe even make it vibrate more violently for film heh) and shaking the body.

For this film it'll probably be all fake, though I've considered pig guts.

I've found a somewhat convincing Kairo mizture for blood.
