So to catch everyone up on what I've been working on in terms of the screenplay other than writing blogs, here's my revised pitch. I'll be posting with the beat sheet next, and then hopefully soon the treatment.
So without further ado:
Character: A stoic misanthropic drifter
Conflict: Parasitic aliens that force their hosts to act out their innermost desires through excess and destruction
Color: horror-comedy
Comparison: The comedic B-movie feel of the Evil Dead trilogy with the social satirization of a David Lynch film
Irony: A small budding tourist town has its facade of quaintness torn apart by parasites who force them to act out their inner most desires in excess.
Theme: When you engage in thoughtless excess, you ultimately destroy yourself and the world around you
Pitch: A stoic and misanthropic drifter is forced to save a small town that doesn't want anything to do with him when alien parasites infect the townsfolk forcing them to act out their inner most desires through excess and destruction. It's a horror comedy with the comedic B-movie feel of the Evil Dead trilogy and the social satirization of a David Lynch film. It's called Parasite.
Not bad, huh?
