Hi Jordan,

I finally read Maggots. Weird but nice. It looked like a long feture teaser to me. I really wanted to know what could happen afterward. As everybody, the dialog in the bar made me laugh. A question remains anyway: do you need to be a drunkar to not being affected by the maggots?

You did a good job

Michel

Hey Michel, thanks for the read, and no, you do not have to be a drunkard to not be affected, I just didn't stay on that scene long enough, cause sooner or later they would have exploded.  I WAS considering an ending, like after what looks like the end of the earth, have those two drunks still sitting in the bar, I thought that would have been funny, but I decided to go with the apocolypitc ending instead.

Thanks again for the read

Jordan, just got through reading this.

I like the concept of the story, but i really  don't think it works as a short, because at the moment all it is - is a gross, fun little read, but thats it.
I found myself wanting answers, such as "Where'd the maggots come from?" "Was there anyone that was immune and tried to wipe out the threat?"
Don't get me wrong, i enjoyed this. My favourite scene being when the maggots burst out of Little Bill's eyes.

I really think you could make an entertaining feature out of this.(Maggots on a Plane? Well, mayabe we should wait and see how good, "Snakes on a Pane" turns out)Overall i really like the concept, but i really do believe this would work well as a feature. Just some food for thought.

Ha, maggots ruling the Earth, what a concept...

It was a fun read. Very funny actually. Everything was set out nicely and you did a very good job with descriptions and dialogue.

The only thing for me was after reading AND during I just had to itch my head and hair. Eeek!! I hate little things like that, especially thinking of them in my long hair... not to mention coming out of my mouth Good script anyway. Crazy and hilarious but good.


I may be an idiot, but I'm no idiot.

thanks Bates and GravyBoatMan for the reads.

I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Bates, I am not sure if this would work as a feature, maybe as an animated feature, kinda like ants, just with maggots instead, then you could give these little white Devil's personalities.

Gravyboatman, I hate it when shit like that happens to me to, our house is surrounded by woods and when I'm going for a hike and walking through bushes and shit, I got little creatures all over me, they get in my hair, down my shirt, crawling all over me, but I'm used to that.

thanks again you two for the read

This script was cool, gross and funny.

The format was good, your scenes were the grossests things I have ever read. My facorite part was the bathroom part, very funny and disgusting.

Keep up the good work


Writing an action movie. EVery other script I was making got deleted and my PC crashed. MY action movie will be completed in about two weeks.

Now this was my kind of script, Jordan! Sick and twisted and it had a great ending! Well, I thought it wasn't going to be as disgusting as you said it was, but as I was reading, I began to squirm uncomfortably, and it takes a lot to make me do that.

Great job, but everything just seemed to go by so fast! Lol everywhere it was just: Maggots begin pouring out of his stomach and thousands more fall out of her mouth.

Great job!

Gore is good in my book, and my book is visited often.

Jordan, once again, you have created a monster that can look beautiful. You made me laugh at the second scene of maggots. Some dude sittin' on the toilet fartin' and he looks down to see bloody poop. That's disgusting...

This is gore fest. I loved it. I'm sure anyone who likes bloody messes, puking, and pooping odd things, this is for you.

No grammar issues, no spelling issues, no problems overall.

Will we find out where the maggots came from? Or did I just miss it?


Coming Soon:

I finally found the title for my short.

Acronym- You've been warned...

Hey,

Nice script. But where did they come from, how did everyone get infected?

You story starts off good and everyone is dying from the Maggoys but with out knowing where they come from or anything there is no story,  Add these parts and re- post this script I will read it, I have to know what is going on.

Thanks for the read Sean, glad I could make you squirm

James, I'm glad you liked it.  I know I didn't give any answers, I just had it like it just happened no reason, I thought it would be cooler that way, anyways, thanks for the read.

Thanks for the comments Dan, I may try a flesh this out a little when I am finished with my other script, but that may be a while, but thank you for the read

Well...That was different  

I liked this for some odd reason.  

Okay yeah some questions obviously pop into your head like ~ where the Hell did the maggots come from and how did they get into the body ~ but meh.

I could have done without the whole bathroom scene.  It just didn't seem to really fit with the rest of the short.

The eyeballs popping out of the kids head was a great visual.

The best scene by far had to be the bar scene with the drunks.

I laughed a couple of times reading this and I hope that's what you were going for.

At any rate it had gore, nasty visuals and some clever lines.

I dug it.

Thanks for the read, and yeah, I wanted people to laugh at some of the stuff, this was my one time jab at a vomitorium, glad you liked it, sorry about no explanation, I didn't feel at the time that I needed one, maybe I will go ahead and change that.  Thanks again for the read.

PS: I'm meeting Andy on friday in Vancouver, she seems really cool
