Well if you ever did then tell me, cos I'd like to audition for the part of Filla.

No question, you'll be the first person I call.

Good, good.

And to be honest, if this script is seen by "the right people" then I'll get a call quite soon.

I finally finished it!

I haven't had much time around here as of late... to write or read or post. So I'll have to make this quick too.

I liked it. I see that you have changed some stuff around by your post and that is probably for the best. I don't however like the ZOMBIES using weapons and such... I just don't like the idea of ZOMBIES running fast, talking, using guns and weaponry or climbing anything. They are rotted corpses nothing more and nothing less.

In the end you have a good screenplay. I would put this in my top 10 that I've read on the boards now. I didn't like the vauge ending. Did they live or die? Did you really care if they did?

I can tell you right now -- I do not like FILLA, I wanted that one to die so many time.

I love your writting it's the best on the boards... well, you and the incredible writter behind "GOONIES NEVER SAY DIE" You both have great craft to tell a story.

I look forward to reading other stuff from you, but I don't wanna DL acrobat to do it. I will rate this one a 4 it's incredible and well worth a read. I just didn't like the intro, the ZOMBIES being smart is kinda... and the ending was a bit to hopeful.

I like the sad, sudden endings
I like the happy, ever after endings
I do not like it inbetween...

Good stuff though... Really good stuff. You shouldn't have no problem getting this sold if you get it out the door and stop wasting your energy talking it up on a message board.

Just my two cents.

Balt.

I'm working on some new drafts of all my Biohazards over the summer, and they'll be in html.

You didn't like Filla?! Goose, he didn't like Filla!

Like I said above, I'm redoing all of my scripts in HTML format. There's too many people who can't read PDF.

The intro is gone. Return of the Living Dead is one of my favorite undead flicks, and I really liked the undead thinking, though I tried not to be as over the top with mine (Send more cops.).

If you like the sad endings you'll like the new ending. It's a lot darker, and. . . well, it's more along the lines of Night of the Living Dead, rather than Dawn of the Dead. (I try and tell people things without giving away the ending, so I compare everything to certain flicks)

And leave Simply? The heck you say! Really though, I'll never leave this place. It's become a second home for me. (I really need a life).

Thanks for the review. The next draft (I've lost count now) was just sent in so it should be up with the next update. It's got a new ending, and I cleared out about ten pages of stuff, but I added more and it's still 165 pages! Sigh.

165 pages of action mixed with dialouge and story will put you at about 2 hours and 30 minutes... don't worry, if it's as good on film as it reads on paper -- We'd all sit thru it.

VAN HELSING was complete trash and I sat thru it's 2hours and 3o minutes...

I'd be more than happy to have watched this movie instead.

You'll get it sold... it's fantastic and what hollywood needs right about now. A kick you in the teeth, no holds barred ZOMBIE flick that takes it's self serious and doesn't leave anything to question.

You got a winner here and like I said in one of my other post somewhere... your work is the best on the boards, hands down.

Although it came off wrong -- I didn't mean to sound harsh or critical about the "STOP WASTING ENGERGY" thing... I simply ment you really need to put as much energy into talking to an agent or a production company, like you do here with all of us.

This is marketed material and at the very least, in the case it does run long and longer... it could always be an HBO mini series  ')

This script is definately one of the better Zombie movies out there. To compare it to Dawn of the Dead or 28 Days Later would be an insult because this script is well beyond either of those. If it is ever made, I'll be first in line to see it. Well done.

dont make a sequel.

baltis:

Well, you are right. I spend probably about four or five hours on forums and message boards (including this one) in a day. I have very few aspects of a life. Oh well. One more year then I'm moving out of the middle of nowhere² to a big city, that'll help me a lot. It's hard to get the ball rolling when the only big business in town is the general store and you own it.  

chism:

Much thanks saying it's better than 28 Days Later and DotD(04 I assume?). Those are two of my favorite zombie flicks, to have my simple little zombie flick called better than those is great. A little injection of confidence.

Filla? Filla was my favourite character! I hope to star as him (as me and freak said earlier) when (not if WHEN) this is made!

Goose gets to be Filla of course, hands down, no question, tis as it is. Hope you don't mind hanging out with me, if this thing gets made I'll fight and claw until I secure my place as West.

Hey, Freak. To tell you the truth, I was kinda wary about reading a zombie script on this site. (there seems to be a lot of them around here). But I was amazed at how excellent your writing is. I mean I seriously believe you have a bright future in the film industry.
I liked Night of the Living Dead, but I hated 28 Days Later with a passion. In my opinion, there're only a few writers out there that can actually make a horror movie worth watching. And you are definitely one of them. Keep up the good work!

However much I do agree with you on our friends writting ability here... I have to disagree with you on there not being any good HORROR MOVIE writers.

Maybe not in HOLLYWOOD, but there are so many ITALIAN and EUROPEAN screenwriters who we seldom hear of or see, making kick ass flicks.

I do however also go to pat myself on the back and my good friend J.D. -- as we both have some of the most inovative and new idea's I've ever seen or heard.

When we get together, the wheels start turning and light bulbs start burning.

Hear hear baltis.

And lest we forget Lucio Fulci, the true godfather of gore, one of the main reasons I write zombie flicks. It is kind of ironic though, he died in 1996 which was when I first saw Zombie, which got me as obsessed with my undead friends as I am today. Maybe an omen?
