What's up, D.A. Thanks for giving this one a read. Happy you were able to power through to the end. Had a lot of fun writing this, and to hear that others enjoy reading it... Well, there's just no better feeling. Thank you very much.

Also appreciate you pointing out those pesky typos.

Anything of yours that I could read in return?

One of these days, maybe over the summer I might turn a couple of ideas for novels into scripts. For the time being, I enjoy reading what gets posted here. I've been an avid reader since the start of the pandemic but until recently considered myself unqualified to comment. I started to see (or thought I saw) an increasing number of scripts not receiving comments and I felt bad. The very least I could do is let people know that I read their work, liked it if I did and why.  Also, I know that any help with typos is always appreciated. In the meantime I will continue to read your work but not before bedtime like last night.

I could tell you had fun. It shines through in your work.

Quoted from D.A.Banaszak I could tell you had fun. It shines through in your work.

This might just be the nicest compliment I've ever received for my writing. Thanks, dude.  

Revisiting this two years later, it still holds up pretty well. Also, add Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2022 to the list of actual TCM films this script is superior to. While a lot of fanfics/scripts feel very amateur and too on the nose (though that adds to the charm of some of them honestly) this one feels well done and polished, like it was an actual lost script that was never produced.

D.A. was spot on in saying he could tell you had fun writing this, I can totally imagine you blasting the greatest hits of the 90s while writing this script haha. Hollywood may have the official TCM movies, but they don't have a TCM movie with Smash Mouth and Marilyn Manson references in it, so ha!

Also the Texas Chainsaw Massacre game is a thing now, and one of the characters in it is basically a chick version of the Hitchhiker like in this script.

Thanks for reading again. And commenting again. Happy to hear this script has stuck with you. I'm actually finishing up a new draft. Will have it posted here shortly.

Just submitted the new draft. Should be up soon.

New draft up! Thanks, Don.

Not for me. I had to stop at the crucified cat in the mouth. (I've watched a lot of slasher but that dam was too much)
That being said, the story yields some good bits of dialogue. I would go over your pacing though (in the first 20 pgs).
You got my attention with your opening sequence but from there you slowly lost it and only momentarily got it back with some witty dialogue. Give me more of what you had in your opening sequence sooner rather than later.

Fair enough. This most definitely isn't for everyone. Appreciate you giving it an attempt.
