Idea 1: That scar really won’t heal if you keep picking it.

A malpratice case leaves a Doctor with only the undead to treat, and their new patients turn out to have bigger problems than maggots.

Feedback for all three ideas was fairly positive but general consensus was that the first idea was scaled most appropriately for the 10 page/minute length.

Outlining

I started trying to outline straight away last week but ended up with somethingh that was more like a treatment.

I have always found something inherently absurd about zombies and afterlife concepts.

Shawn of the Dead (2004) has a clear similarity in the mixture of contemporary society…

But Beetlejuice (1988) is one of my earliest film memories and has a strong influence on how I think about film. The humor comes from the surreal situation rather than “jokes”.

In ‘That scar really won’t heal if you keep picking it’ I want the protagonist to very comfortable with the situation hopefully illustrating to audience that this is the ‘normal’ in this society. This is intended to establish the antagonist as culture of rejecting and marginalising people who are undead.
