What do you think of my movie ideas?

Question

I'm planning to make a movie next summer. Here's a few ideas i have had. Which one is best?

1. Zombie Beach - Nazi Zombies (the result of an experiment by a devil-worshipping SS officer) kill and devour anyone who comes near their abandoned bunker. Locals avoid this French beach because of the unexploded ammunition but 8 British teens go there during their gap year to surf and smoke weed.

2. Vengeance From Beyond the Grave - Based on an Edgar Allan Poe story and inspired by Corman's B-movies. A 19th century soldier apparently commits suicide to escape his brutal officer, then returns to haunt him and drive him to his death

3. Teds - A film set in 1950s England about 2 rival gangs of Teddy Boys. There will be a lot of violence, prejudice and paranoia from the adults, romance between the Teds' leader and a high class girl from a conservative family, a rockabilly soundtrack, and an exciting car chase between a customised Ford Zephyr and Rover P5

4. Sawney Bean - The original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, set in 16th century Scotland. Sawney is patriarch of an inbred cannibal family who butchers travellers and abducts women to rape. They leave no survivors, until one day a victim escapes their larder and informs King James. The cannibals (with the exception of Sawney and his youngest son) are captured and tortured to death in various gruesome ways

5. My Stalker Is A Vampire - A sexy horror show host (based on Elvira and a young Maila Nurmi) is stalked by a creepy yet sophisticated vampire (inspired by Christopher Lee's Dracula) obsessed with her body. Trapped overnight in the studio, she must stay one step ahead of his henchmen and find a way of destroying them

6. Varney the Vampire - The original Dracula book about a Cavalier cursed with immortality for betraying his friend. It will span two centuries: 1640-1820 but will have a twist near the end where Varney is dissuaded from committing suicide in Vesuvius, only to drain the priest's blood and embrace his vampire self before fleeing into the night

7. One Armed Gunslinger - A disabled US Marshal based on Virgil Earp teams up with his younger brother, a tough cowgirl and a drunk sherriff to track down and kill the surviving members of Bloody Bill Anderson's gang

8. Angel of the Odd - Edgar Allen Poe's gothic comedy on screen for the first time

9. Last of the Druids - A 2 hour historical epic about the life of Merlin: from his beginnings as an orphan in a post-Roman Britain, to student of the last druid priest, to adviser of the Celtic warlord Uther Pendragon, and finally as mentor of King Arthur

Answer 1

Sawney Bean and One Armed Gunslinger sound the best to me. Some of the rest would be very hard to do well, others have already been done too many times.

Answer 2

Yeah, i admit your ideas are now out for copyright, but I too am a budding screenwriter, I too have great ideas, and I agree some of your ideas have great potential and I would love to hear from you if you wanted to work together.

If you wish to contact me then great.

Answer 3

1 sounds alot like Dead Snow, a norwegian flim about nazi zombies.

Answer 4

I think that posting your ideas on the internet is pretty stupid. Anyone could steal them and pass them off as their own.

Answer 5
