script contest
We are looking for several horror scripts for our 2021-2022 film slate. If chosen, the winner will be contacted with an initial purchase bid, along with a production bonus. To be determined by the investment team.
We are currently accepting completed scripts in the horror genre, only. Specifically, we are looking for scripts that take place in one main location - at least 3/4 of the film. In addition, a minimal cast.
BONUS - if you have any letter of intents already committed, please let us know.
Please include a one sentence logline and a treatment (at least 2 pages). If we want to see the completed script, we will reach out to you.
Thanks for submitting.
We have attached our NDA for receiving materials if you would like to peruse it.
