@Rosetta: Ive written a bunch of stuff and teach screenwriting now too-
and yeah horror movies are the BEST to write, they make everything really simple to deal with because there are such definite physical results from emotional tension-and they also rather naturally anti patriachal! I just watched Carrie again and it blew my mind ( again!) If you are in NYC Ill tell you all about it sometime....I have crazed master theories on all this from teaching it for so long.. A horror movie with your pals sounds fantastic. whats it about?
