I think every horror fan is a horror writer deep down. I'm sure we've all imagined how we would do a flick which ultimately leads to us being let down when we actually see the film.

SCREAMERatorX 10-15-2003 07:40 AM

unless its an idea/concept/technique which has an 'edge'?!
which i rare....
ive only been let down twice!!..that b'coz,

Decent Online Screenwriting Software
 
www.scriptbuddy.com

If you want to spend an asswad of money (around $1000), go for Final Draft... I think it's made by the same people that created Final Cut Pro (Editing Software)

Give it a shot if you want, I have two practice scripts started on it...

I am currently not working on anything although in a few months time I will be required to write a screen play and produce a short movie for my Media Studies course.
At the moment my co-writer and I have a few ideas, none of them are for a horror picture.

But being a horror writer/director is my main aspiration, my other as SCREAMERatorX knows is web design.
At the moment I am waiting for something to inspire me, "The Silence Of The Lambs" inspired me to write my first horror script entitled 'In 1985'.

I am currently working on a story titled "Anti Terror" and it has to do with Jason along with a whole school traped in their high tech school. Nice gory fun insues.:)

I'm going with Tony on that one. It seems like everyone on this board is a writer.

thehalk 10-17-2003 04:00 PM

Delfino 10-18-2003 09:17 AM

Sorry Halk, but the only copy of 'In 1985' I have at the moment is a print-out.
I've formatted my computer since writing it, although I might of sent it to a few of my friends, I'll ask around and see if they have got it.

If they have I'll get them to send it me, and then I'll send it to you.

Sorry for the inconvenience. :(

HalkX 10-18-2003 09:42 AM

Hey halk, there is a fan fiction page now so when you finish your screenplay you can post it there.

ShamSham04 10-18-2003 10:33 PM

Two years ago, I wrote a cheesy horror film script that was about 50 pages long called "Dark Waters". The death scenes were cool, and the plot was alright, but I just figured that it wasn't what most people would consider a good idea for a horror film.

The plot was about a girl named Nicole Sashton who wins a contest on the internet for a free vacation on a private yacht with six friends. She is forced by her parents to take her brother Barry, so she only has five friends to choose from: Michelle, Kyle, Caleb, David, and Allie. Once the trip beings, everything seems to go great. On the yacht with the contest winners is Rick (the chef), Peter (the contest director), and two yacht workers to run to the yacht. Once they are about five miles out into the dark ocean, the propeller suddenly stops, and the electricity goes out. It turns out the yacht got entangled in an old sail for a ship that sunk centuries ago. But this wasn't just any ship, it was a pirate ship - and hitting that sail awakened a maniacal pirate who murdered his whole crew just before his ship sank, killing him. Will the contest winners make it out of their dream vacation alive?

Like I said - corny, cheesy, and unoriginal. Nothing but good kills could come out of this. :(

Anyway, now that that is over with, I'm currently in the works of writing a script for a movie I plan on filming sometime when I turn 18. The script is called "Geneva County", and the main idea of the movie is two friends coming face to face with a dangerous killer in Geneva County. The first scene is up in Fan Fiction if anyone wants to read it. :)

Well, you should at least post the synopsis of it. I'd like to know what it is about at least.

thehalk 10-20-2003 11:54 AM

Synopsis just means a summary. I would just like to know, in short, what your flick was about. Like what you would put on the back of the box to get people to rent it.

thehalk 10-21-2003 02:04 PM

this is goong to sound it has like 1 sean with freddy the rest is prtty mutch jason n myers

cypher2004 10-28-2003 03:07 PM

i have written 2 screenplays and working on my third now.

the first was entitled 'The Fog' and it was about a band of pirates that attacked coastal towns in and they could move this cloud of fog with them.

the second was called 'Bermuda' and it was based on a research crew who discovered a 1780's ship deserted which drifted out of the Bermuda Triangle and then it turns around and sails back in with them on it and what happens to them in the Triangle.

the third (no title yet) is about a man and his wife and they r in a car crash in the countryside and the guy passes out, and when he awakens he notices a small town and his wife is missing so he wonders down and then it becomes a story of him and a group of occupants fighting to find his wife before the creatures that have taken the town do.

Sounds like you may have a lawsuit on your hands for that first script about the pirates in the Fog:)

I'm recovering after losing my script for 'In 1985' and I'm writing a new script, its not really horror, more of a psycological thriller, but its going to have some pretty gorey scenes in it.
I hasn't got a title yet only a working title which is 'The Red Elephant', its a kinda' shitty working title, but a better title will be given to it when I have more than 3 or 4 scenes done.

horror_director 11-19-2003 02:21 PM

i am currently writing one. i also have two other ones writen and two more half done. go here to read about the one http://www.geocities.com/facesofevil...cesofevil.html

thehalk 12-12-2003 06:19 PM

Keyser_Soze 12-12-2003 06:33 PM

I have written three horror scripts. I am currently trying to get financing to get one of them made. I will be directing it. It is called THE NIGHT.

The logline is:
On the first night at her job as a security guard, Wendy must save a group of mental patients and herself from a killer who has a link to Wendy's past.

One of the others is called REUNION.
Logline:
When a group of sorority sisters reunite after five years to fix-up an old Lodge, that they purchased together, they all must fight the ghosts of generations past.

"spliced"
 
hey i have finished writing the first ACT of my horror screenplay, the working title is "Spliced". Basic plot: A lonely theater projectionist goes over the edge and starts to dispatch theater patrons. i've got the first 30 mins of the film written, rough draft however. if you'd like to read it just email, i'd love some feedback. Also it's the first thing i've ever written in my life...so if you think it sucks let me know..i can handle the criticism.

There is horror movie with that plot line. Forgotten what it was called lol.


I am currently writing down ideas for a psychological drama film, and also ideas to start writing a script to follow a slasher film which is already out in the mainstream.

Also concentrating on ideas for television dramas here.

ds_spoon 12-20-2003 10:40 AM

i am currently working on my first film (when the sun goes under)

it is about 4 teenagers on a camping trip and a murderer
canabalistic murderer there is going to be some excellent kill scenes including (the murderer hides up a tree one of the boys has a girlfriend the boy n girl get up to shit away from the other boys NOT a good idea) jason vorhees type murders

i know its not original but this is going to be a no-budget film and it is my first film so if you will ease off the disses thnx..

thehalk 12-29-2003 06:44 PM

1 why don't he just cut the tree down (editing) n why does it have to be in the woods? why can't be in the city with project buildings?

Magneto 01-08-2004 08:18 AM

What's up all.... I have been writting a book/screen play for about 2 years or so... It is more just for me but I do believe that if I ever finish it, it could be pretty good....

mudsliptones 01-08-2004 09:18 AM

their is a dark, werid, fucked up place
that place is pretty near me, it's even inside me, it's in my head,

if I were to actually make a horror movie, it would be a really good one, sometimeqs I have these great ideas, but I lack writing skills
