“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-FOUR:
“Word on the street is early screenings of Cowboys and Aliens are meeting and beating expectations, so I figured I’d throw my hat into the wild west arena with this low budget genre hybrid that blends something old with something even older. Hope you enjoy the results.”
– Andy Cosby (Twitter)
Pitch:
Butch Cassidy teams-up once again with his old gunslinging get-along Sundance, who’s been bitten by a vampire and has only a few days to track down and destroy the creature or face becoming one of the living dead forever. Joining forces with the infamous vamp vanquisher, Van Helsing, the two cowboy compatriots embark on their last great adventure, eventually coming face-to-face with the legendary master himself. That’s right, Dracula has somehow survived his last encounter with Van Helsing and is trying to stake a claim in the new world. But only if Butch and his pals don’t stake him first.
Nick Says: I think we need Tony Hickox back in effect here, especially with the amazing cast with Billy Zane and Jason Patric as the cowboys, Rutger Hauer against type as Van Helsing, and Scott Glenn as Dracula!
