Speaking of erotic thrillers and bringing those back. This was posted in today's Inktip newsletter.


7) Seeking Completed Feature-Length Erotic Thrillers (Preferred Lead 6480)
We are looking for completed, feature-length erotic thrillers. Please do not submit scripts with excessive nudity or outright pornography. Scripts in the vein of "Basic Instinct" are more the tone of what we are looking for.

Budget is yet to be determined. Both WGA and non-WGA writers may submit.

Aha! Thanks for the hot tip, Pia.

Appears maybe Blondie was onto something. Everything goes in circles.

Thanks everyone who entered this highly entertaining challenge.
Hope you're getting your votes in.

Voted. Definitely one clear winner, for me. Sadly, not me. Always a bridesmaid...I might even be the flower girl for this challenge.

To me, there's one clear winner as it follows the OWC theme and is really well written. Though I have two other favorites that don't even come close to following the theme lol.


THE SUICIDE THEORY (Amazon Prime, 79% Rotten Tomatoes) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2517300/?ref_=nm_knf_i1
RAGE (Coming Feb. 2021) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8874764/?ref_=nm_knf_i2

I voted. I will admit I was looking forward to that one script that took the erotic part way too far. Sadly, it wasn’t there.

I thought the same for sure too, James!

Nobody went over the top at all.   If anything it was all very modest.

* Last day to get your votes in guys and gals.

Forgot to add - if anyone's interested in a Guess Who Wrote What?

But I'll need to know from Don everyone's voted first, so will hold off on it for the moment...

Voted yesterday. Interesting challenge and some good scripts. It was surprising to read what others interpreted as erotic.


If at first you don't succeed........bribe someone.

I put my votes in yesterday as well, not sure any of them hit the thriller/erotica theme %100 (I certainly didn’t), but there were a few that came closer than others, so I most likely gave them better over all ratings.

Good thing I got my reading and reviews in early on in the week, we’ve had some unusually mild weather ‘round here lately, so I’ve been playing in the yard all the live-long-day, pretty much just moving snow from the shade into the sun, setting up outdoor furniture, etc.

… and the pičce de resistance… a hot tub that was on back order till next November (cause of Covid, and every Tom, Dick, and his Dog buying tubs) was suddenly available cause of a cancellation, and we either take it now, like right now, or go back on a waiting list… so yeah, we had it delivered.

But now I have to find an electrician, 60 feet of big-ass 50 amp outdoor wire, and a 50 amp GFI outdoor breaker box, but cause of Covid, and every Tom, Dick, and his Dog buying tubs… there’s none to be found anywhere. So, a friend of a friend who’s an (electrical) apprentice for another friend finds the wire through a distributer, then another friend miraculously finds the breaker panel I need at a hardware store cause someone accidentally buried the last one in stock (in the city) on the shelf behind another box, and now we’re in business, phew!

So, yeah, longed winded way of saying I’m amazed I found time for this OWC this time around, but I’m glad I did… it was a really awesome challenge. A huge thanks to Libby, Don, and Sean for all they do, cheers!

Wow, Rick. I was struck by your comment:
...moving snow from the shade into the sun...

I've only ever seen snow once in my life. Of course global warming might change that
Australia might be so hot it's uninhabitable in the future. That said this Summer just past was a dud, the wettest and coldest in about a decade - just a couple of heatwaves sprinkled throughout. Still, a welcome reprieve from the drought and deadly fires of last year.

Okay, enough of the weather report.

I'm putting up a Guess Who Wrote What.

Only for those who've actually read and reviewed.

We are yet to receive a few ballots.
You know who you are. Come on guys, get 'em in please, for those on tenterhooks and hanging out for results.
