This week's question:
Should I write another Halloween
script, DcH?
Arthur T. from Georgia

This week's Answer: "HALLOWEE!" I
don't see why not, Arthur. Halloween is a great time of
year to put in your screenplay. You can have colored
leaves, chilling winds, children running around in scary
costumes. Serial slashers on the loose. Your heroine
running for her life, pursued by a malevolent presence set
on her utter destruction. The killer dying then rising
then dying and maybe rising again before finally dying
before entering a sequel and starting the cycle all over
again.
All perfect elements for a romantic
comedy.
