If you haven't taken the time to compare the likes of "Final Draft" and "Story View", I strongly urge you to do so before you spend your money. Neither of these software programs are cheap but they're also not outrageously expensive, especially if you plan on using either one to churn out more than a couple of scripts.

I don't know how old you are, what level of education you've attained or even how long you've been writing (scripts, et al), but I'd venture to say that (from reading your script) you've got a long way to go before you get good at this thing. That's not to say that you don't have a talent (it's obvious that you do) but rather that there are weaknesses in your script involving presentation (structure), grammar, spelling, plot/premise, and even dialogue. Overall, production value isn't necessarily an issue since you're not selling the script. Fortunately, you've got the balls to display your unfinished work on the web for the whole world to see, and there's not a lot of people reading this (or your script) who can claim the same. Please read on, I'm on your side...
I downloaded Storyview for free, and my age is 15.

How are you making out with Storyview? I assume you're using the demo version...Is it limited in function?

In case you're interested, I just found these on eBay this morning:

Final Draft 7.0

and much cheaper...

Storyview 2.0

There is something called natural talent. I'm getting published for the first time real soon and I started to write when I was thirteen some have talent while others wish they do. I'm open to plenty of critism that is the only way that a writer can carry on with critism to know just what their audience wants.

Ok, here's some for you...
Your punctuation and sentence structure could definitely use some improvement.
You also spelt criticism incorrectly.

I can spell perfectly, but I was in a massive hurry so that's why I spelt it wrong and there is nothing wrong with my sentence structure then again I'm open to critcism just like everyone else.

Yeah i did get the demo version off of download.com and the only thing thats limited to the actual software is that you can only export 1 document, and then the trial is over.

Pinhead is completely different from Michael Myers seeing as he has the cube that unlocks a world to pain and pleasure that can only mean death and turmoil.
Pinhead is someone who knows just where to hit a person, mortal when they're down and most vulnerable and that's what's so great about him.
Pinhead reminds me of my wife :D both her and Pinhead could kill Michael

:rolleyes: Ooooh, you wrote a script for it. Hey, do I still die in your little movie?



And if this is a fan-script why is it in the upcoming movie folder?
