I just had to read this to see what all the fuss was, as mentioned in the main thread.  Normally, I usually break things down per page.  I'm not going to do this here because this post would be too long.  I agree that this was probably written in haste because of all the errors.  The motel room scene reminded me of the one in From Dusk Til Dawn (minus the fat lady busting through the wall and the cowboy).  The reason some were lost is because the writer used flashbacks, without calling them flashbacks.  Glad I had some sleep last night or I would have really been lost!  Still scatching my head though...

Overall, I didn't understand what was going on.  I assume there is some mental figure (Cowboy Sam or Madame/Lady Lutz) that Jack and Liz see, which makes them kill people.  Not a good genetic marker to hand down from generation to generation.  Madame/Lady Lutz crashing through the wall and squishing Kevin cracked me up (guess I'm in a weird mood today).  Strange story.  Not sure how it met the criteria, but will look at it again.  Thanks for making my day even more weird.  Too many mistakes, but thanks for the read.  Good luck and keep writing.

Looks like I didn't get to this one until now. I also made it a point not to read other comments because I didn't want to poison the well. That said, FADE IN. You know where it goes. KEVIN has two slugs, (and why cut off "Jack" at "Jac".? That's just odd)

Some spelling errors within the read -- and look, I know there is Cowboy Sam and his speeches, but I personally frown upon intentionallly misspelled words for the sake of speech slurs and other accent/dialect. Plain out hate it.  It's still a misppelled word. It's also instructing the actor how to act. You can write in 'Cowboy Sam speaks in a southeren crawl' and leave it at that.

I liked this better as it went along, aside from the uneeded language and the substitute of 'sick' for vomit'. There were, in fact, some nice visuals. Made up a lot of ground in the read, and I wished it could have been like that throughout. But there were some nutty things such as:

Quoted Text once he made me eat someone’s severed finger in an A&E ward.

So, he made Jack eat his own finger in an emergency and accident ward, did he? Okay, it's a bit shaky, but I'll let it slide. What I won't let slide is & as I despise, more than anything, even more than intentionally misspelled words in dialog is SYMBOLS for dialog. It's no different than abbriviations.

Write the word. Don't be a slouch and you won't turn me into a grouch.

Quoted Text Lady Putz, 6ft something,

Ok.....this falls into the WTF did I just read pile. I believe this was probably done in a rush and at last minute. Overall - I'm a bit confused at everything that went on in this. Needs work, but I'm guessing through numorous comments that you already know that.

Good effort.

Wow this script came with its OWN Dancing COWBOY SAM! Rockin Rap Rock on!!

Congrats on finishing the OWC!

I saved this for the end because I knew it wouldn't figure into my voting.
I also thought this would be a great closer.

Sir (or Ma'am),
You had me at four door saloon.

Not even sure what a pi#$ take is.  But this seems to be the closest thing to one this time around.  

Intentionally bad or a novice writer?  I am leaning towards intentionally bad.

There are just too many mistakes, typos,  and obscure dialogue.
Not to mention the characters themselves.  That is probably the only part of the contest rules you bothered to check.  Odd but interesting characters?  CHECK!

Plus it just feels different than the others.  

I applaud your efforts (or lack of them).

Cowboy Sam has so many weird moments in it.  And we all know what they are.
And I'm sure we all have our favorites.

An excellent read if nothing else.

wow...just wow

is this a pisser? is it not a pisser? IMO it really doesn't matter.

it simply doesn't matter. i'm trying to read as many as i can before the power goes out and the writers are announced.

i did laugh at lady putz. as someone else already noted, it reminded me of the kool aid man. so thanks for the laugh.

there are simply too many mistakes to list. from grammatical/spelling errors to formatting issues. if you post the rewrite, i MIGHT take a look. but i doubt you will....

congrats on finishing a OWC.

Finally read this one.

Um, what the heck?!?!?!?  From the feel of it, I'm (relatively) sure it was a pisstake.  And Lady Putz was kinda fun.   So there's that.  Kudos on the OWC...  

Cowboy Sam Rap Lyrics

Cowboy Sam Cowboy Sam
Listen to me kick gonna rap that jam.
Cruisin in my saloon down a desolate highway
Storms coming soon we gotta get outa this hundai
Motel Hotel...I'm finding whiskey and snacks
The shit is totally free Cowboy Sam dont even charge tax
So get your bitch out of the boot and tie her up tight
Cuz we bout to get krunk while it's stormin thru the night
Cowboy Sam Cowboy Sam
Green Eggs and ham Cuz it's Sam I am
One time we's cruisin through bendy
He handed me a knife and this girl Cindy
Her fingers were so bloody He made me eat em
But Sam wanted the bestest of king sex
promised to buy her that gold and diamond rolex
But the boy running round in the pink undies
Made him wanna eat a gun on that sunday
His boots His hat, His cowboy blue jeans
It made him long for his 500 lb sex queen
But first a trip to the phone booth for killin
Then bustin through the wall and they were chillin
To Cowboy Sam.......Cowboy Sam...
Listen to me I'm gonna kick that jam....

Finally got to listen and watch the Cowboy Sam video.  Amazing...absolutely amazing.  I've never seen a dancer with such moves before.  Sign that boy up for the big time!!

Quite funny, Dena...love it.
