THE BIG TBHL WINNERS - HERE THEY ARE!
Reno @ 2:06 pm EST

At long last (sorry about that folks!) we've finally judged the entries to the TBHL screen play competition!

Believe me judging these entries was no mean feat, finding two entries to win these signed posters was hard enough without having to put them in first or second place. Still, as to not keep you good people waiting any longer, without further ado here are the two winning entries:

First Place - Brainless By Ryan Dueckman

We liked this one because it displayed all the humour, brilliant characters, original and intriguing dialogue and of course, gore as seen in PJ's movies. This is an entertaining B-movie style horror short where the
evil baddies are, hmm, mice. (Hitch Hikers guide anyone?) Bit of a tribute to Braindead/Dead Alive as well methinks, with the obligatory 'garden gnome used as weapon'. Brilliant!

"We have readied the invasion force. Our patrol has found the perfect landing site. We will start with a single insignificant dwelling of zero tactical advantage, just as planned, your lordship. Brilliant strategy, might I add."

Second Place - Blackmarket Budgerigars By D.J Madden

'Blackmarket Budgerigars' is a very professionally written response, which describes the scene excellently. Dark humour and one really evil bird
really made this script stand out over other entries. The action in the short film flows smoothly and quickly making the overall effect an action packed and entertaining entry.

"Todd is still sitting on the toilet, humming to himself. There is a bubbling in the water below him.
He looks down puzzled."

We'll be getting those signed posters to you as soon as possible you lucky, lucky people. Sorry to all the other entrants who didn't win, maybe next time. Other entries that I thought were worth a mention were:

Regan Macaulay's vampire film 'They Suck' and

Brian Miller's piece 'A Briefcase of Evil'.

All that's left now is to say congratulations to the winners, all those who entered, and we wish all you bastards a very happy new year!
