Default ENF Movie

Just a few thoughts. I've never made a movie, so take them for what they are worth.

1. Plagiarism is the highest form of flattery. Steal idea's from other movies. Porky's. Class. Friday the 13th, etc. Yeah, they all had bigger budgets, but try to take as much from the as you can.

2. Instead of writing a script for the movie, do what Robert Altman did. Have the actors create their own dialog. Not for the whole movie, but at least some of it so the actresses feel comfortable in front of the camera. Saying your own dialog in a movie seems more natural. And if you don't like it, you can always edit it out later anyway.

3. To me, the actress is the most important aspect of the movie. She has to have charisma. Without it, no one is going to care what happens to her. So find someone who is not just good looking, but sparkles when she talks.

Anyway, just a few idea's.
