Does anyone have this script? I've read some mini reviews for the script as well as reviews of a screening and I'd like to read the script. My email is NightSlash53@yahoo.com.

Thanks in advance!

I started reading the draft you found Rob and I'm very disappointed. It's written like a damn novel.

Wow, disappointed is putting it mildly.  What an amazingly poorly written script!  I only got through 4 pages and had to stop.  So many problems, issues, etc.  Really shocking how amateurish this pile is.  I'd have a field day with ti, if I were tor eview and edit it.

WOW, What the FUCK?????

You're not kidding, Jeff. That is a terribly formatted script. How they made a good movie (or at least what early reviews are saying) out of it is beyond me.

It will be interesting to see if the script matches the film. This may be a draft that has nothing to do with it. Struggled through first ten pages. done. Like to see someone post after they see it. If it's right, I'll finish it.

I can't believe all of the stuff written into action that you can't see. Very amateur.

Only read the first 15 pages so far and I have to say that I'm enjoying it a lot.

The characters are good and their actions realistic. I thought the opening scene was interesting and really set the mood. The script is building the mystery around the crazy outbreak very effectively.

There are some very interesting visuals and you can tell the writer is experienced at working on film...the transitions and the flow are spot on.

It's extremely well paced so far and it kicks into gear brilliantly around page 14...

I'm torn between stopping reading so I can enjoy the film without knowing what happens, or carrying on.

I'm perplexed by people finding it amateur.

There are a few unfilmmables, but most are actors directions. There's only a couple that are completely silly, and they don't affect the story in any way.

I'm going to keep reading....

I agree with Rick.

I read the first ten pages. I thought it was written pretty well. Yes, it was thick. But I thought it at least stayed interesting.

I didn’t see any “unfilmables” but I realize there are a lot of writers who think things like, “David is the last person she expected on her doorstep this morning,” are unfilmable. I don’t agree. I think touches like that can really spice a script up. And I absolutely think that’s filmable.

There are a few things the writer does that I don't like, such as calling characters TOWN PASTOR or PRINCIPAL instead of giving them names, or calling Russell by his full name in dialogue attributes when the character goes by Russ the whole movie. And then the Becca character for some strange reason gets her first and last name used all the time.

He often doesn’t give ages for characters but if he was hired to write it, they may have had certain roles filled and didn’t care.

There were a few silly things like the text messaging thing on page ten. Who the hell wants to watch ten seconds of someone text messaging? We don’t even see what she’s writing.

Other than little things like that and description that’s too dense, I thought the portion I read was very well written. I certainly didn’t see anything I would consider poorly written or amateurish. I like what I’ve read so far.
