At first I thought RichardR's comment was a bit rude. Then I started to read this script.
As I was (trying) to read it I could almost feel all the cocaine and/or energy drink you must've consumed whilst writing this in my own system.

Here's why:


Quoted Text
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE DOOR

The Film Crew glance at each other, decide, then leave.

Paddy turns back - I'm screwed.

Paper flies in his face.

He's startled.

Runs toward the ouija board.

But the boom wire lifts up and trips him.

He crawls.

A chair lands on him.

Then a table.

Finally a blanket engulfs him.

He rolls around screaming.

A belt wraps him in the blanket.

Paddy gets up.

Runs into a wall.

Falls over.

Squirms out of the blanket.

Pounces for the ouija board.

But it's gone.


Your logline really got me interested and though I appreciate the playful tone, this frenetic style of writing makes it's nearly impossible to get a clear picture of what is going on most of the time.
Would love to see a rewrite though.
