I've always wanted to make a dark yet charming fairy tale, and this was to be it. Originally set to be my first novel, I also envisioned this to be the first film I would make as soon as I had "made it", i.e. I would be in command of a large crew, have my own studio or studio backing. This is really the first time I felt something I wrote could be considered a strong story and I've always held out of talking about it too much for fear of plagiarism. I am usually not afraid that someone steals my ideas, but this is one of the only cases where I really am careful about my ideas. Anyways, here's the main plot line, and I hope you like it and that it gets made sooner than later.
BILLY AND THE HEARTLESS (2012)
Billy is a 23 year old janitor who is a little slow in the head. Some kids at Green Meadows High tease him, but as long as his uncle and fellow janitor George and younger friend and football hero Jim Jones are there to help him, everything is fine. Of course, the fact that a new young teacher named Sarah is replacing old Mr. Astin as the science teacher is even better. As Billy tries to look his best to impress Sarah, strange things begin to occur in the school halls. A teacher and some students have disappeared, and Billy hears noises in the air ducts while cleaning. Something is living in the walls of the school, something horrifying, something without a heart. With Sarah and Jimmy's help, Billy sets out to discover the truth and uncover a dark secret.
