“From the mind behind the mega-hit Syfy show you’ve probably never heard of (EUREKA) comes a tribute to all those no-budget Syfy original movies and the “so bad, they’re good” films that inspired them. Move over Roger Corman, step back Ed Wood, make way on your weekend programming schedule Mr. Stern, because here comes Andrew Cosby’s 365 DAYS OF SCI-FI.
And it’s all happening here! Each day, your friends at CHUD will bring you a brand new bad movie pitch — the best of the worst title Cosby can come up with, no matter where he’s at or what he’s doing, rain or shine, drunk or sober. That’s a whole year of the quality concepts you’ve come to expect from the network that brought you MANSQUITO and SHARKTOPUS.”
And now… DAY SIXTY-THREE:
“Ever wondered what would have happened if Kevin Smith had directed the first X-MEN movie…starring Woody Harrelson? I like to think it might have looked a little something like this…”
– Andy Cosby (Twitter)
“Great power. ZERO responsibility.”
Pitch:
After smoking weed laced with a unique combination of radioactive pesticide and experimental weed killer, seven ordinary teenagers are granted extraordinary powers far beyond that of normal stoners. Enlisted by a top-secret government organization dedicated to making the world a better place, the teens are taught to use their newfound gifts for the greater good. The only problem is, their superhuman abilities only work when they’re incredibly high, so keeping them focused and motivated is a constant problem. And saving the day is rarely their top priority.
Nick Says: As long as no one from Half Baked is involved I’ll be ok.
