Title: Thinking of writing a story…
Post by: CountWolkoff on December 08, 2023, 07:55:47 PM
Imagine classic horror mixed with a campy late-80's/early-90's actioner.

We're talking three one-man armies storming through the battle-scarred Transylvanian countryside, gunning down rivers of zombies, fending off reanimated mummies, and infiltrating a castle that cruise missiles and aerial bombardments can't scratch!

It's CASTLEVANIA meets CONTRA meets ALIEN meets DOOM meets that delightfully campy 1994 STREET FIGHTER movie, as well as a liiiiiittle bit of those late-80's made-for-TV SCOOBY DOO movies.

Well, I wish you success although if your narrative is as scattered as your outline, it could be a tough sell.

Well, I have one introduction written down for a character, Luna.

I'm kinda eyeing a retelling of Bride of the Monster (in a more contemporary setting) for another. Strawsky and Vornoff are both tied to another doctor whom the new character is looking for.

That sounds like a lot of fun stuff. :D

A couple of chapters are written, but the main characters, well... a bit horrifying in their own right.

1/3 of the way through Pam's solo case.
Nothing new with Luna's, aside from debating whether or not to have her run into Michael, who "takes care of the place while the Master is away" or something else.
As for Hugh, all I have is that his case is in Rome.

I need an idea for Hugh's.

Nearing the end of the first episode. The main bad revives Dracula, but has a method for restraining him.

This sounds like the perfect mix of over-the-top action and gothic horror, where one-liners fly as fast as the bullets. Picture heroes with big guns and bigger egos tearing through undead hordes to an epic synth-metal soundtrack, all while storming a castle shrouded in supernatural mystery. It's high-octane chaos meets campy charm, with just enough spooky vibes to keep things thrilling!

I hate no necropost, but this project is being reorganized to some extent and has more to do with an original creation of mine... though the monster stuff remains.

It is going to be kind of a mishmash, though...
