[u/RiceThick8992]

Title: Drift

Format: 1 hour pilot

Page Length: 54

Genre: Drama/Action

Logline: Desperate for cash, a pre-med student joins a clinical trial for people with heterochromia, then forfeits his pay to take an experimental serum in place of a terrified volunteer. Gaining extraordinary powers, he’s pulled into a secret order’s plot for global control, torn between his instinct to protect others and the freedom he’s always wanted.

Feedback: What do you think? Are the characters well-rounded? Is the tone/voice consistent? Any else you got would be most welcome.

[u/Impression_Small]

Title: ACT NORMAL

Format: Short film

Page Length: 4 pages

Logline: Act Normal is a psychological horror short about a nervous schoolboy who arrives at a boarding school where everyone appears to be a faceless monster except him. When he's forced to eat a plate of Ofada rice, (a nigerian food) an ordinary school meal becomes a nightmare.

Feed back: I'm particularly interested in feedback on the dialogue, as it feels rather wooden. Also, theres a female character here, im not too sure about. Also want to know how this lands internationally.

[u/spline_reticulator]

Title: Like a Heathen

Format: Feature

Page Length: 116

Genres: Supernatural Horror / Thriller

Logline: In 1985, when a pop star is murdered at a high-school pep rally, trapped students must escape a cult that controls minds through music — before its ritual consumes the entire school.

Feedback Concerns: Looking primarily for feedback on pacing, dialogue, character relationships, and clarity of the supernatural mythology. Do the characters feel distinct and their relationships believable? Does the dialogue feel natural and character-specific? Does the story sustain tension across 116 pages? I’d also love to know whether the supernatural escalation and major reveals are clear without being overexplained, and whether the deaths, betrayals, and climax feel properly set up and earned.

Happy to swap with another horror feature

I am also okay with unsolicited feedback: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-4wDCrkO6ir21OaiV3KPSre3TKQksACa/view?usp=sharing
