...and as someone who's read it - I HIGHLY recommend that everyone run over to Scriptshadow and give it a vote.  It's damned solid horror.  (And that's coming from someone who is pretty jaded with the slasher genre.)  )

AF sucks on a regular basis.  Sometimes there are great ideas that are terribly executed.

Red Light is definitely the number #1 pick though.

Wow, I had no idea this was a topic here. Thanks everyone!

And for those who are easily discouraged by rejection, let me be the first to tell you this script did NOT advance to the quarter-finals at PAGE this year. Then, twelve hours later, Carson announced it was one of his picks for AOW at Scriptshadow. So don't take every no as a loss and keep showing up!

Knowing my luck, it'll be delayed a week and then end up being a "what the hell did I just read?" LOL

Thank you for the support guys!

So...is there no AOW review this week? I was hoping it would be yours. Didn't vote, because I didn't have time to read any of the offerings, but I'll always cheer for SS members.


Btw, since Scriptshadow people refer to that place as SS as well, I call them SS2.

Hey guys, the review is up if you want to see me get roasted. LOL

In all honesty, I think Carson made a lot of good points that will help in future revisions. But it's pretty clear he wasn't on board with the concept from the beginning and didn't plan on changing his mind about it.

I'm still happy it happened.

Not bad really, considering how Carson can be.

Nice little however/disclaimer in the final para below.

Sorry Italics not working on my tab at the moment.:

......

On the plus side, the premise began to win me over as the script went on. I thought it was clever to make the ghost woman an investigator who was in the middle of trying to find a missing child. It brought another level of mystery to the teenagers’ investigation. I mean who knows. I could see this being a direct-to-digital horror title. Why not? It has a great title. It’s an easy-to-understand concept.
........

That's a well done in my book, Chris.
Let us know how you get on.

What does he know about writing a great script? What successes has he had aside from gaining a load of arse kissing fans that hang on his every word in the hope that he one day recognises one of their scripts?

I don't get it.

I avoid all of this bullshit now as I have far more success doing it on my own. No money-sucking comps and no bullshit gurus like Carson. They're all full of shit and wouldn't know a great script if it literally bit them on their collective fat arse.
