Mine wrecks all of yours. Tom is flying on a business trip when the plane crashes and he ends up on this uninhabited island with an isolated motel that he seeks shelter in when a cyclone (Pacific hurricane. Ha!) strikes and he escapes, only to stumble upon some hatch in the ground and other people on the island...
Let's face it. I have the greatest ideas of all time and you know it... =)
Sorry, Mark, I have the same idea, only Tom is a mime and he pretends to play a giant piano. Of course, Meg is there as well, also a mime. The hilarity that follows will have to be read to be believed.
I can see it already... Another oscar worthy performance... The man is an acting machine...and Meg is still totally adorable even as a mime.
Quoted from coop
Where does his choice between good and evil come into play? Why not change it up a bit.
IT'S TOM FREAKING HANKS Coop.... The man is an acting machine... He could jump from chopsticks to playing the Exorcist theme... good to bad without breaking a sweat... Stick that in your face Ryan Gosling!

Genius.... Only one thing you need.... Meg Ryan as Wilson...
I have a reasonably cool horror concept for this which I' ll start today.
Here's some advice for those who can't think of fuck all to write? And I admit this is a pretty tough challenge, when you are hoping to write a decent script...
Anyway, if you can't think of a mainstream idea, maybe do it as a full blown comedy, perhaps in the vein of the Scream series.
Any genre, remember, folks, any genre you please...
It does seem challenging to get more than one character's backstory to involve the supernatural. Especially for a ten pager.
But, I love challenges.
Unless I missed something, there's nothing that suggests the characters past occurances with the paranormal/supernatural has to be "different". It could all be related. Am I wrong?

Also, I really think the more questions people ask, the more constricted the challenge will be and you'll see 8 of the same scripts. It's best to go with the flow.
