Who wants to help me get a job?

Sure Rod, I can tell them how you molested me as a child in a monster outfit, oh, no, that's another story.

Actually I went for more of a moronic you tube comment to make it seem authentic.

I'm steplo01 by the way, good luck.

I wouldn't tell you all of it, but we used several tales including my favorite, "Stay Out of the Basement" as prime examples of stories that work within our structure, but there are also allusions to "Night of the Living Dummy", "Monster Blood", "Welcome to the Dead House", "One Day at Hororland" and others to make a comprehensive Goosebumps world.

I remember One Day at Horrorland vividly... I think that was my absolute favorite one... Except the end was cheesy, if I recall. Sometimes the endings were a bit contrived (I remember Welcome to Camp Nightmare being GREAT - except for the end).

I also remember Say Cheese and Die, especially the end.

Great stuff Rod.Loved the books when I was a kid.I still have the entire set.Hope you get the job.

[Psycom5k]

Commented and voted for you Rod. I do think that this is a pretty cool idea.

[GorePhobia]

The more and more I think about it the more I know they HAVE to give you the job. I think a lot of different kind of people would go see a movie if it were to be made.

oh, wow. rod, that looks like a blast.

i love the old time halloween feel the video had. that's my favorite stuff.

and was that a still of the ouija board menu from "the 7th guest" i saw?
i think it was.

i used to play the crap out of that game.

at any rate, i really really really hope this works out, as a former member of the official goosebumps fan club and all...

You'll sure get job man!:)

[Roderick Usher]

thanks for the support, everyone. it is truly appreciated.

The odds certainly are against us, as several big name writers are also vying for this job and the producers aren't certain which path to take, but my partner and I are trying our damnedest to get the gig.

It's about the same as auditioning for a role as an actor - even if you're really good, it doesn't mean you'll get the role - it is still very much a popularity contest that is subject to the producers' whimsy...



which is why we're planning on producing and directing our next (non-horror) movie. But don't worry, even though it isn't horror, it's still the most violent thing we've written;)

-well I'm of to Vegas, have a good weekend everyone!

Well, if you do get this, please include Slappy the dummy. His books creeped me out the most out of all of them. Also the one with yellow space slime from an egg.

Only trouble with slappy is it might be seen as a bit Chucky-ish.

Great idea, Sean. You've got my support.
