He watched the car go by from just on the other side of the trees. Hand tapping against the bark, impatient. But he would wait if he had to. It had never been his best trait, but it could be strengthened. Not much longer now. The car seemed to go by slower, but he didn’t know if that was their driving, or just his excitement. All added up the same, either way.

(I see a red door and I want to paint it black)

They didn’t see him. That was good. It wasn’t part of the game… or whatever this was. They couldn’t see him yet. It wouldn’t be fair to give them a head start like that. Especially with his bum leg. And he wouldn’t be too pleased either. It was all for him, wasn’t it? So he figured he better do everything right, pace himself, and things should happen in time.

(No colors anymore I want them to turn black)

Against his desire, but for his better judgment, he stepped back from the tree line. Turned away from the car. It was a long hike back to camp, and he had to make sure he got that first. Had to prepare the cabins, after all. Had to make things presentable for guests.

(I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes)

The camp had been closed a few years now. It had been so long since he’d had any company out here. Well, besides him of course. But he kept to himself, and there was never any reason to intrude on the territory of a man like that.

(I have to turn my head until my darkness goes)

No reason at all. ]]> Natman http://www.f13community.com/board/showthread.php?t=1566 My Friday The 13th Collection http://www.f13community.com/board/showthread.php?t=7270&goto=newpost Sat, 04 Sep 2010 20:57:36 GMT WOW Thats Just Amazing WOW Thats Just Amazing ]]> Collections Matt326 http://www.f13community.com/board/showthread.php?t=7270 Jason figures for sale. http://www.f13community.com/board/showthread.php?t=7010&goto=newpost Sat, 04 Sep 2010 10:31:49 GMT Hiya there, what Jason figures you have?

I would really love to direct one of the "Hellraiser Chronicles" as I don't believe there's been an American entry yet (and wasn't "Question of Faith" created as an actual television pilot?) You really did a tremendous job of working with what you had. The acting was spot on, the effects were wonderful for the budget. It felt a little more old fashioned (stylistically and also with the lead actor, it actually reminded me quite a bit of Romero's "Martin" in places, just in the overall look) I think this film is certainly a worthy piece of Hellraiser mythology. Sorry it took me this long to view it.

I also see that there's a little genre bending, much like with my Hellbound comic (though mine is sadly more obvious) in mixing in that "other" classic horror novel. ;)

Applause to all involved. There are rarely fan productions of this quality.
Well, this was an unexpected and delightful post to read! Thanks so much for the feedback, glad you enjoyed it. I definitly went for a few classic stylistic choices, definilty, and delighted you've compared it to the superb "Martin", high praise indeed.

It'd be great to see more HR fanfilms, so I always sya go for it if you can!

On the subject of "A Question of Faith", it was less a pilot and more a promo, as part of a pitch to 'sell' the idea of a series. A shame it didn't go much further but it certainly inspired so many others, myself included.

On the comic, it's now 1/4 coloured and being lettered, I'll send you an email ocne I get a reponse form the artist on a few things. :)

Thanks again and all the best!

I might need a little help here writing wise. I've got two movie ideas that I've wanted to come up with forever, and now that I've got a good hold on the story, I want to turn one of them into a fleshed out screenplay. But I can't decide which one. So, any input would be appreciated.

The first is Fright Night Part III. I am well aware a remake is on the way, but I've wanted to write this movie forever. And Children of the Corn seems to be taking the "ignore the remake and do another sequel" route anyway.

The idea is this: a young man named Freddie has been released from a mental hospital after five years. We don't right-out acknowledge what put him in there in the first scene, it's explained as the movie goes on, but basically it's revealed that when he was thirteen (he's eighteen now) he and his best friend were daring each other to go into this old haunted house, and when they went inside they saw something that really screwed them up. Freddie's best friend, Rick, moved away after that, refusing to talk about it, or even talk to him. He didn't want to acknowledge what he saw, but Freddie swore up and down that they found a vampire in that house.

Now, Freddie's moved back home to his quiet suburban life after finally 'conquering' his delusions of vampires. No more horror books, no more horror movies, and he's not allowed to watch another single episode of "Fright Night". His delusions caused his parents' divorce five years earlier, and it puts a strain on his relationship with his mother, but she says they've got another chance at happiness now that she has a new man in her life.

He just moved into the neighborhood.

And, as Freddie quickly discovers, that man is not just a vampire, he's the vampire that screwed up his whole life to begin with. So Freddie is all alone with no one to rely on, no one to talk to, because if he's the boy who cries "vampire", they'll just lock him up again. He soon realizes that he's out of options, and turns to the one man who *might* be able to help:

The host of "Fright Night", Charley Brewster.


Now, the idea for the Candyman remake: Basically, I want to stick a little closer to the Barker short story "The Forbidden" on which Candyman was based. It's set in London. And I thought of a beginning scene so that the film might not necessarily be a remake, per se, but more of another story of the Candyman. One kid is in an alley recapping the first movie, and the other kid says, "no, see, I heard it told like this..."

And then I go into the new story, with Helen as a university student studying urban mythology, getting drawn into the stories of the Candyman, and beginning to wonder if there's any truth to them. Once she meets Anne-Marie, who tells her Candyman killed her infant child, Helen is amazed to find some direct encounter and not just "it happened to a friend of a friend". She has Anne-Marie tell her the story, but quickly finds her belief only stretches so far, and when the story sounds suspicious, she has Anne-Marie put away for the murder of her baby boy. It's much easier for Helen to believe this woman killed her own son than to believe that the Candyman actually exists.

She tells her boyfriend, Trevor, about everything, and how she still can't put that miserable place and its stories out of her mind, that he'd understand if he knew what it was like. So he says, "show me" and they go. Trevor, having heard stories of Candyman and wanting to prove a point, says the name five times in a mirror (the mirror that Anne-Marie claims Candyman came out of to kill her boy) and he is, not surprisingly, killed by Candyman on the spot. (note: I believe with the structure of the story, despite differences, Candyman could still be played by Tony Todd)

Candyman says that he has waited for this, to visit Helen directly, because she did not believe. And her disbelief has become an obsession of his. He wants to know her, to understand her as much as she has been driven to understand him. Helen is almost as much of an intriguing story to the Candyman as he is to her. He asks her, "why are you so different?" before vanishing into the night.

Helen goes to Anne-Marie in prison to explain that she believes now, but Anne-Marie is (not surprisingly) unwilling to help. Helen almost talks her into helping, claiming she needs to know the truth. Anne-Marie responds that there are too many stories to know, and Helen says she doesn't want stories, damn it, she wants the truth.

Anne-Marie turns away, telling Helen that if she doesn't believe, she can't be helped. And Helen is on her own. Murders continue to pile up as Candyman continues to take from her, and eventually, Helen (though driven almost mad) still cannot go far enough to believe everything, and Candyman has to come to her directly, and seduce her into becoming part of the story, so that she can die, and he can die, and the tale can live on forever. ]]> Natman http://www.f13community.com/board/showthread.php?t=7297 <![CDATA[F13 - No Man's Land (coming Halloween 2010)]]> http://www.f13community.com/board/showthread.php?t=7261&goto=newpost Wed, 25 Aug 2010 17:33:06 GMT We've set up an official Facebook page for the film which can be found here http://www.facebook.com/pages/Friday...2266538?v=wall come and check out the latest news and updates on the project!
