another idea. this time serious. remake I Am legend!
the new film looks ok but you could do better. or make a film with the same kind of feel as the book. a wank horror but realistic. have you read it? its an amazing book!

Have a couple of ideas that i've worked on with a mate of mine for a few years, we even have locations.
A post apocalyptic spaghetti western and a horror movie where a derek acorra type is shown up as the shyster he really is live on t.v when for once he really is possesed ;D

Okey dokey....I posted this and then deleted it because either a) it was too good an idea to give away gratis; or b) it was daft (take your pick ;D))
I can't make a short-don't have scooby-but here's my idea (it's a sort of romance/horror cross over):
A girl works in a chippy. She's secretly in love with a bloke who works on a building site opposite the chippy, but she's too shy to reveal her devotion. Everyday said bloke comes in to chippy for his chips and gravy. Finally (on day 5 maybe??) she chops off her little finger and serves it up to him with his chips. Come on people, it's symbolic and i think quite beautiful and poignant.
What d'ya think? If you decide to make this, please acknowledge my genius ;D
Good luck people, will be interesting to see the entries!

Jill.... and that is the end of the film? I can't see it myself. hehe. She should drug his gravy... hide the body in the chippy chest freezer and then batter bits of him from time to time for her lunch. Or... even more gruesome.. she bundles his whole body into the fryer (would probably have to be the foetal position) after pouring batter mix all over him of course! ...then perhaps displays the result as a "World Record Breaking Nugget". Sorted! Jill, Shane and I can split the profits 50/50/50.  TPB rules! |

See this is where the balance between romance and horror all goes to cock...if she did all that she'd be weird surely ;D

It is symbolic though I do agree. Symbolic of her being a lunatic! hehe Why let the audience down with only the chopping of a finger to keep them entertained, when you can have a dead, naked builder battered in the chip fryer! |

I had an idea about a guy getting killed and then coming back to kill anyone his gf or wife (optional) gets with, I call it PASSIONS AND DECAPITIONS if you think about it, its kind of like a remake of GHOST, just with lots of sex and violence  the sequel, she becames a porn actress and he comes back edit: I cant remember, but are we still on topic?  |

Well you've never read Plath! See mine was a little 'one act' .....but on reflection, I kind of like the 'object of desire' in the chest freezer angle....we don't want this to go all Ed Gein tho...uum needs more thought..but we're definitely onto something here Dave..let's keep talking ;D Edit: Uum this made a lot more sense last night than this morning, funny that......where's the paracetamol....but the symbolism was in her giving him her body. Got to love the image of 'battered builder' though-would it be on the menu board in those little stick on letters?  |

Jill, I made a short film in college many years ago with the same idea but based on a William Burroughs short story that I cant remember the name of! If I remember I'll tell you but basically it was a love story where a man cuts off his finger and wears it around his neck. The tape is somewhere ?

Still everything's derivative ultimately isn't it as evidenced by 'Saxondalegate.' Mind you, I don't think even Royston Vasey chippy had battered builder on the menu.....this story has legs I think (literally) |
