Quoted from jwent6688
This was an exceptionally lame effort for me. I like it, It just needs a few rewrites and some major changes. I wouldn't have posted it if Screenrider and I weren't talking smack all week.



This script wasn't so bad considering you wrote it in a day or so.   Kinda reminded me of the beginning scenes of "The Ring".

I remember catching some flack for the stupid name of this. In one of my drunken internet searches I swore it meant the doorway between two worlds. Anyway, I don't write much on these boards anymore, but I've been getting more and more into film making with some local indie folk. Instead of picking one of my favorite scripts to shoot for my first film, I grabbed this one. I hacked it up and this is what I came up with. If anyone wants a break from their OWC for a few minutes, have a look and let me know what you think.

Cheers,
James

Hi James,

The script is a little before my time here, but the film's enjoyable enough - nicely shot and acted.  The moment the creature peers around the corner gave me a chill.  Nifty little horror.

I didn't realise the apple/mirror thing is an old pagan ritual - so I even learned something too.

Nice one.

Hey James...

Ha, just in time for Halloween too.  Good job, man.  I remember reading this script.

Very nicely done.

Just one thing (and your Mum might hate me for saying it) - I was expecting when the door opened that the blood spatter would be thicker, considering what was seeping under the door.

Just sayin'...

Regardless of that, this has a nice Pro feel and look to it. Congrats.

Steve and Ghostie, thanks for checking this out.  I’m glad you guys liked it.

I’m all about practical fx, but I’m in the process of repainting her bathroom now because of the mess we made. When fake blood reads soap and water cleanup, don’t believe it. Glad you like it aside from the lack of blood.

Hey Jay, great job!!! Cool to see you directing too!!! My first thought in the end was, I wonder if that blood was hard to clean up.

Thanks, Pia. Yeah, the fake blood was a disaster. Thanks for checking it out. No Pumpkin Nightmare 3 this year?
