Inspired by Time Out's competition http://www.timeout.com/london/feature/2511...ture-of-horrorr write a horror movie pitch in 30 words. I rather like the idea, so here's one to get us started:
Bill wakes to find every door in his house locked, every window unbreakable, phones and the internet gone. Bill tries to survive, wondering if he will ever escape. I might turn that into a Halloween animation

P'shaw. Pick a location, pick a thing that can go wrong, multiply the danger. Always add isolation.

 I could have written a short novel by this point Group: Established Members Posts: 1,579 Joined: 4-August 08 Member No.: 12,759 Gender: Secret |
The icy tundra amidst the lone Antarctic split open, and the men went tumbling in. Getting out wasn't a concern, until ice shards started falling in rhythm with maniacal laughter.
-------------------- Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And, the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics: You are all stardust. You couldn’t be here if stars hadn’t exploded, because the elements - the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution and for life - weren’t created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars, and the only way for them to get into your body is if those stars were kind enough to explode. So, forget God. The stars died so that you could be here today. ~Lawrence Krauss

Tom died, then woke up. Then he died again. He can only break the cycle by finding the true cause of his death... And killing it.

Yeah, that one was a bit Groundhog Day but with less romance.
