Easy choice for me...

Attack of the Crab Monsters, since it's on the pic link.  I may write it in black and white however for the sake of nostalgia, as well as have the crab monsters look really fake.

Does each crab monster need to have a name or can I just call them "CRAB MONSTER 1", "CRAB MONSTER 2", or would it be better to use names like, "GIANT CRAB MONSTER", CRAB MONSTER JUNIOR", PAPA CRAB MONSTER", "BEARDED CRAB MONSTER", etc?

Looking very forward to reading all these...even Bert's!!

Good choice, from what I hear you know all about crabs.

Quoted from Don
Since one of the points of the exercise is to come out of this with a viable script for production, using Krueger, Jason or Chucky, while arguably 'classic' horror monsters (perhaps 'silver' age classic), would limit the marketability of the script.


I'll take that.  If I do one, still not sure, it is a monster not pictured anywhere on that link that I can see.

That was quick...

I better start thinking. Jekyll and Hyde has always been a favourite, but I probably won't go there. The modern twist is interesting. I'm in, but I'm not sure with what yet.

The first script has been received.  Remarkably good considering the time.  And, as always, you can continue revising your work up to the last minute.  I'll post the last version of the script received.

Really?  Damn...unreal.

Why...why submit so soon?  I'll never understand such a thing.  Please let us know which script it is after everything is all done.  Will be very interesting...

Quoted from Grandma Bear
If you click on the link in Don's original post, you'll see what monsters he had in mind.  


I get that now, which is still cool.  


Quoted from Scar Tissue Films
The tall man?

A contemporary myth as part of Classic Monsters?

I think not.



I was talking about The Tall Man from Phantasm, a favorite of Bert's.

Ah, makes sense.

I thought you were pushing the boundaries a bit there!

Why bother using an lias? Folks will know you wrote the Giant Crab script and they will know I wrote the Giant Leech one

Throw a few crabs in yours and I'll add a giant leach or 2 to mine.  No one will know...

Quoted from Grandma Bear


My comment was actually made in loving memory of Movie Poet. No matter how simple Chris made the assignment, there would still be a hundred questions about what he really really meant and if this and this and this would be allowed. If he said comedy/cheese, people would demand he defined comedy since everyone's sense of humor is different and what kind of cheese did he mean?  At what stage in the cheese making process does it start to turn into cheese. Lol! I think you knew that.  


Ha! I remember that. I think people were just messing with Chris. I know I were sometimes)) See, the site was so quiet...
