Important Update


All the entries were submitted within the deadline, and sent off duly to 5 random Battle Royale Judges.

The first entry was submitted by Finalist Posher778 :-

"Scriptwriter- Stanley Kubrick
Director- John Carpenter

Starring- Jack Nicholson, Kevin Spacey, Meryl Streep, Ellen Page. Also with Cillian Murphy (costarring)

"The Downward Spiral of Malevolence"

An innocent young adult (Ellen Page), is called by Satan himself (Jack Nicholson) to aid in the destruction of humanity. Armed with a legion of demons, she must kill all that she loved (along with the rest of the world) in order to keep her soul. The film follows her descent into wickedness as she slays her mother (Streep), the pastor who tried to save her (Spacey), and her step brother (Murphy), then proceeds to become the devil's slave, doing whatever he commands.

Finale- The film ends a few years later, and Ellen has succeeded in destroying the world. However, Satan laughs in her face as he vanishes into the air, leaving her alone, isolated, the last person alive on the planet, to live alone with the guilt and hopelessness she created for herself.
"



This is what the esteemed Judge had to say in his verdict :-


"I have read your entry and graded it. My comments may seem subjective or somewhat arbitrary to you. I have considered them carefully. My judgement is final.

Pros-
Good Director- Carpenter would make the most of this story. +1
Good Cast- Nicholson, having played the devil before, is a natural. Kevin Spacey & Meryl Streep would both bring some well needed humanity to the story. +2
Plenty of epic action- +1
Possibility of some interesting demon characters. +1
She gets punished in the end +1

Cons-
Kubrick never wrote a script he didn't direct. Even with unlimited funds, he wouldn't do it. -1
The heroine's motivation is essentially selfish- she's only fighting for her own soul. This makes her an unsympathetic character. If there was a goal outside her own benefit it would make her more sympathetic. -1
Why does Satan call on HER to destroy humanity? This should be stated. If there is no reason, that should be stated. -1
The title is rather generic. It does relate to the story but it doesn't really grab the attention. -1

I started with a base of 5 as an "average" film. I added a point for every pro and subtracted a point for every con, ending with a final score of 7/10.

An above average film but not the greatest horror film ever made. It would do well with the 13-25 age demographic. It would also probably spawn a couple of sequels, each of them worse than the original.

A competent and somewhat inventive effort.

No punishment.
"


Congratulations Posher778!

You win 7 points (1 HP) and a six-shooter with 6 bullets for that very good effort! (as a normal reward)
