My Screenplays

Hi all,

I haven't mentioned this before anywhere else on my site, but I have been in the process of writing two screenplays, one of them for for six years now. I wanted to get this information out to others who are also interested in screenplays and making movies because one day I will finish these darn things.

The one that I have been working on most recently is, to me, the most interesting. It is a horror/thriller that is based on some of the most fascinating aspects of quantum physics, parapsychology, metaphysics and the paranormal. It is very loosely based on the horror classic Dracula by Bram Stoker. It is actually what I call a "re-imagination" of the tale based in the present year, but the main vampire character is not an undead creature like most vampires are based on. The idea comes from my own research into the world of physical parasites that live in the human body as well as "Entities: Parasites of the Body of Energy" by Samuel Sagan, "Mind Parasites, Energy Parasites and Vampires" by Jonathan Zap, "Psychic Vampires" by Joe Slate.

The creature is a parasitic entity from a lower astral dimension and under the right circumstances can enter into our physical dimension, unless it can continually feed off of the physical and psychic energy of humans. The creature, once able to feed from a human host takes on the physical form of that person's DNA and is in a sense a kind of clone of the original person. Once the entity is finished with its first victim it can walk around and interact like a human. Though it constantly needs both physical energy (blood) and psychic energy (life force or Chi). When it feeds from a human it absorbs the victims memories and knowledge as well as its DNA. So with each person that it feeds from it becomes smarter and smarter and harder and harder to destroy.

The heroes of the story are two brothers who are amateur paranormal investigators, a parapsychologist/quantum physicist, and a gifted psychic/energy worker. Together they battle the vampire and seek to destroy it. The Parapsychologist/Quantum Physicist is the "Van Helsing" of the group. The two brothers are younger late teens/early twenties and provide dark humor.

The two movies that are inspirations to this film are both Fright Night and The Lost Boys. The vampire will be an incredibly handsome man with the ability to psychically influence and seduce anyone with a weak mind like the Jerry Dandrige vampire in Fright Night. Thus there are scenes of captivation and seduction. This vampire is the real vampire that all the other mythological vampires are derived from such as Dracula. In history past there have been instances where these creatures, under specific conditions, can enter into our plane and wreck havoc and the most knowledgeable people rise up against them.

So this creature is the real vampire of mythology from ages past. These creatures feed off of fear and negative energy (vibrations/thought patterns). Thus the power of intention (positive intention) of others can repel the creature. This is why the religious icons were used in the past as means of defeating the vampire (crosses, holy water, holy wafers, and other religious items). The religious icons have no power within themselves but the intentions (positive thoughts) of people who used those items. This is thoroughly explained in the film and reveals that the christian means of dispatching the "evil" has no power except for what we give it. This is why in my film the creature is repelled without any religious means, but through the power of positive intention (Please watch the movies What the Bleep and The Secret to understand this concept).

This is it for now. I will share the other screenplay details with you if you all like this one. Please let me know your thoughts on this story. I'd like feedback if you're up to it.

Thanks!

John

Wow, I'm impressed. I like the fresh premise, I too, am a huge fan of the varied vampire genre. I'm intrigued by the actual creature itself, very fresh concept, I can't recall anything like this.
I'm interested in hearing more~

Thanks Cindy! Yeah, I am a real fan of the vampire genre as well and don't think that there has been anything similar to this. The creature is very interesting, since there are similar paranormal entities that are psychic or mind parasites in real life. Though I don't have any info on whether or not such entities or anything similar passes into our physical plane. There are some "Beings" that do come in and out of our plane of existence, such as Sasquatch (they are very psychic and explains why they can never be caught or killed), which is actually in the other screenplay that I have been working on for six years now.

As the vampire grows in power and energy it is able to control animals and use its mind for psychokinesis (move objects and even levitate and fly) which brings in the aspect of bats and wolves (dogs) from the vampire mythos.

I'd read it and watch it, I have become so bored with the cliche vampire stories. I am one of those people who believe that vampires do exist. I swear I have met a few and they are not always as easy to identify as what one might think.

I just love this story, but one thing frustrates me.... I'm ready for it to come out in a theatre near me!! My fave parts are the 'positive intention' power and the vampires' ability to consume their preys knowledge.
