Overlooked Black List scripts

It's a holiday week and I don't have much enthusiasm for coming up with new posts. However, I have a number of blogs I read daily and it always frustrates me when they don't have new stuff, so how about some audience participation today?

I've seen a couple of Black List spoofs lately. You all seem like a very creative bunch - why don't you write in with fake loglines and titles for next year's Black List. Bonus points for coming up with a clever screenwriter to be the fake author of your premise.

I'll get us started:

THE ZOMBIES VS. ZOMBIES by Danny Niles
"The British band "The Zombies" might be humanity's last hope when their reunion concert becomes Ground Zero for a zombie apocalypse."

Manager - Circle of Confusion


DUDE, YOUR MOM'S HOT! by Jon Schlossberg

"A high school freshman finds his popularity fluctuating when his classmates discover his mom's a MILF."

  1. I tried to write MIKILF ... Mother I knew I'd Like to F*** .... a revenge movie about a 50 year old woman who reboots her mundane life by running off with a younger man and uses him to kill her husband who wants to divorce her ... the working title of your mom's hot is much better

  2. The scary part is DUDE YOUR MOM'S HOT wouldn't seem out of place on the real Black List. IIRC there are actually two scripts that are about a guy's mom hooking up with his best friend, or something very close to that.
