Honestly I've only read one feature ever under the unproduced section. But for me to read an entire feature, the thing must have at least some potential.

1- The Rothe Expedition. (comedy)

I know a lot of people trashed it, but with a little work and change, It could be a decent road trip story.

as for Shorts...well, I'll have to think hard on that one.

"To Be" (short)

It tried to be a bit different from the norm, and largely succeeded.

I can also highly recommend To Be in terms of a clear and concise writing style.

The Key

Unusually, I didn't want this script to end - I wanted to know more about the characters and their story, which is a testament to the quality of it's writing.

Now then.

What shall I pick?

I fondly recall Tommy's Leaving Tasmania, A Documentary

That was hilariously funny for me. And I liked it before he mentioned my own script. So there.

The Monster Blues by N7 - a great idea well executed.

Suicide by Phil. One of the first I read on here. Stuck in my mind for quite a long time.

  A Man For All Time by Stevie. No Beatles in it though, not even the slightest reference I recall. An excellent idea well done too.

The Colonel's A Seven Backed Up By A Two springs to mind too. Catchy title that sets up itself well and delivers. Speaking of delivers...

Deliverance by the Snipe. A fine attempt at a proper remake of a classic. One of the few features on here that I really liked. Had a lot good stuff in it. Still does too I'm sure.

Based on a True Story by Dressel was a fine attempt at at a humourous feature.

There's more that have presently slipped my mind, still, can always add by edit later.

You're welcome all.

Your Golden Years Await by Howard Jensen (Colkurtz

Absolutely wonderful gem of a story. Quite possibly the best I have read so far on SS.

Haunting by Malcolm McKenzie (malcolm3)

Flawed first script posting, but well worth a look.

Heavenly Intentions and Spiritual Connections by Craig S Cooper (craigcooper)

Two different takes on the same characters, one a comedy, the other more dramatic - and both very good in their own ways.

Strangers by Julio Weigend (reapercreeper)

sweet and uplifting little tale

Since I've been around the boards for about a year, reading Shorts all the time (I really should try a feature), I thought I'd mention my favourites that spring to mind.

Hijra by Michael Cornetto

The Fairy that wouldn't Fly by Michael Cornetto

Bizarre Bazaar by Mike Shelton

Bad Penguin by Phil Clarke Jr.

Chocolatier (was From Heaven) by Anthony Hudson

The Curious Case Against Sean Elwood by Robert Skotte

The Total Awesomeness of Cars That F**king Rock by Robert Skotte

Starbuck Starr by Robert Newcomer

To name but a few.  I probably have forgotten a few good ones.  

I can always post next year.

Since there's a big discussion going on at the moment about a SS top scripts, I thought I'd try and ressurect this thread, 3 years and only just over 50 posts, what does that say...not many good scripts to shout about?  I don't think so.

Anyway, I'd like to say the series
Spiritual Connections
by Craig Cooper is very funny.

Here are some scripts that I have enjoyed and would recommend:

Producing Fiction: The Movie 2000

By Mathew Dressel

Note that this one I think is currently being renamed from Producing Fiction to something else.

Bizzarre Bazaar

By Michael Shelton

This was so very humorous for me to read and although I don't think Mike meant for it to really be a script, the fun he pokes at everything is absolutely wonderful.

Another script of Mike's:

Coffee and Inspiration is one that is very funny and enjoyable.

As I was searching through some old files, I remembered

Long in the Tooth
By
Mark Aznavourian

This one I thought was a very creative take on the vampire element.

Speaking of the vampire element,

I'm speaking with regard to the book and not the script, but George Willson's

The Fempiror Chronicles - The Initiation of David

Is a crisp read that I'm preparing a review for. I'm actually really glad that I'm getting to read the book and not the script first. I guess it goes back to my feeling of "read the book first and then go see the movie".

I would definitely advise you to go and buy the book.

The Big Fade
By
Slabby

Is one that I have watched develop and it's still in development, but I think there is tremendous potential in this. The dialogue coming through the characters is very real and I don't think one can write this kind of thing without some kind of personal experience.

Husbands in Space
By
Michael Cornetto

This script is hard to pin down for genre. At least for me. Although it's set like a sci-fi, it's written in some ways as if with a soap opera flavor and even with comedic elements; however, it has some very darkish kind of creepy vibes. It's definitely reaching outside of typical boundaries and I found myself drawn easily into it.

That's it for now, but I'll post more favorites again in the future.

Sandra

I think the resurrection of this thread is a good thing so I'll try to keep it going...

The Chocolatier - This has already been recommended but I'll do it again. Honestly, one of the best shorts I've read here in my four years on this site. Fun, darkly humorous but not too much so and an interesting original take on a legendary series of murders. It's also got great pacing and is constantly introducing new hooks which makes it very hard to put down.

To Molest A Molester - Darkly humorous... very much so. Funny, clever and a rather cynical view on American entertainment. I love it! Still, no overblown social commentary here. It's a skit. Not too long. Not too short. It's got a story but it sticks to the point.

I'd also like to push some features as they've been less than appreciated for some time...

Pub Lunch - Perfect balance of gore and humor and loaded with British flavor. A surprisingly light take on the backwoods cannibal genre but fun and gruesome nevertheless.

Servants of Chaos - A stark thriller with some killer suspense and an equally killer atmosphere. This one takes its time to get under your skin but still has a sickening handful of morbid uses for the human body.

I've just remembered a script I read a while back by limey (Adam), not even sure if he's still active.  Anyway it's a romantic comedy which I didn't think I'd like but found it a really good read.

Red Balloons and Rollercoasters

I'd recommend Boardom by Steve McDonell.

I read this a while back and thought it was very amusing.

I haven't commented on all of these, but some of my favorites so far are:

Drama

Justus by Brian Lee Johnson

The Suicide Theory by Michael Joseph Kospiah

A Beautiful Dream by Kim Britt

41-A by Bo Ransdell

Short

The Race by Anthony Hudson

Your Golden Years Await by Howard Jensen

To Be and A Thousand Days by R. McManus

I've no hesitation in recommending Spiritual Connections by Craig, and, Cooper. Funniest thing I've read in a long time.

Also can recommend Do You Have a Clubcard? By Col. Kurtz.

RV

Alf's 'Pub Lunch'. A gem.

Deserves the recommendation for being original. James' Complete.
