The primary purpose of the SimplyScripts Discussion Board is the discussion of unproduced screenplays. If you are a producer or director lookng for your next project, the works here are available for option, purchase or production only if you receive permission from the author.
NOTE: these screenplays are NOT in the public domain and MAY NOT be used or reproduced for any purpose (including eductional purposes) without the expressedwrittenpermission of the author.
Recent events have shown us the world can be a scary place, and we are but bit-players in an increasingly unpredictable and sometimes terrifying world...
But who doesn’t love a few jump-scares of the celluloid kind, especially from the comfort of your own lounge-chair?
Your mission, should you accept it, is to tell a story of how you envisage an ever changing world in the future.
The genre is Horror, SciFi.
The focus of your story should primarily be on horror and your ability to scare your audience with your future vision taking in consideration technologies, existing and emerging.
The SciFi component should be based on current and futuristic concepts of science and technology.
There will be a review page emailed to you for you to score the scripts you read. Please only give scores to scripts that you have read. Please do not rate scripts in your review.
Schedule:
Friday 5/29 - Theme and Genre release Friday 6/5 - Scripts due 11:59 pm edt Saturday 6/6 - Noon edt Scripts Posted Friday 6/12 - Writers Choice votes due
This isn't a contest - it's a challenge. There are no official prizes.
You may submit more than one script but it's better to write one GREAT script than two or three mediocre ones. You may also have a writing partner.
You can revise your script as many times as you wish up until the deadline.
Do not put your real name on your script; this is an anonymous challenge. However, please use your real name when submitting your script.
After the challenge closes you can either have your script removed or resubmit your script with your name on it.
Participants must read and comment/review in the discussion board at least five other scripts submitted.
Submit your two to six page script, anonymously to simplyscripts.com/owc by midnight June 5th midnight edt.
Any questions about the challenge, post them here.
There will be a review page emailed to you for you to score the scripts you read. Please only give scores to scripts that you have read. Please do not rate scripts in your review.
Edit: Details of deadline will be confirmed by Don.
Don't worry, we'll get it sorted. If no one else can post on this thread there must be a technical problem (kinda fitting for the challenge) and once the cats stop chasing Don, I'm sure he'll come to our rescue.

It’s sorted. Apologies. Anyone registered user can post, now.
I'm sure I'll have some questions for you in a bit, Libby. In the closing pages of a new feature. As soon as I get this beast wrapped up, I'm shifting focus to this.
I like my stories Simple. Straightforward. A to B. No C.
