Van Damned - 6 friends reunite at a remote luxury estate for a nostalgic weekend. When a local feud escalates into a deadly standoff with a criminal gang, they team up with local farmers and channel their encyclopaedic knowledge of 80s and 90s action films to survive the night #scriptsky #writing
'Van Damned' is finished. When school friends reunite for a weekend watching 80s/90s actions films at a remote farmhouse, they come under attack, the group must channel every over-the-top movie they grew up on to survive the night in a blaze of roundhouse kicks, one-liners, and VHS-era chaos #WIP

In 2002 sat on a beach in Thailand I told an older Australian traveller that I was really liked an album by a band called Creed. He said, ‘nah, I’m not into that religious crap!’ Reader, I had zero idea they were a Christian rock band! 🫣😂

87 pages into ‘Van Damned’ and it’s feeling sort of complete. Needs lots of tidying up, but finally getting closer to the finished project #scriptsky #screenwriting #amwriting

Just heard someone say that the UK has privatised wealth and made losses public. This feels like the most accurate read I’ve heard on the current climate in the UK.

Scary how much AI has improved in the last six months, asked it to design a concept poster for my current WIP and it’s pretty good #scriptsky #writing #screenplay

Do I have ADHD as my colleagues suggest? I wonder, as I replant a lavender plant in my garden while looking for my shin pads and am late for my football match. #adhd

45 pages down into my WIP Van Damned, so much fun writing the actions scenes. Half way to making this a tight 90min action feature #scriptsky #writing #Jeanclaudevandamme

Read the script for ‘Game Night’ and am now convinced that this was a totally underrated movie. Great pacing, superb ratio of jokes per page. #scriptsky

Think my Van Damned feature script has gone from an all out action comedy to a heartfelt meditation on male friendships and their gentle decay over time with tips of the hat to Stand By Me, and I am okay with that. Still plenty of slow motion spinning kicks! #scriptsky #screenwriting #writing
