“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-EIGHT:
“I think you’ll get a kick out of this one…”
– Andy Cosby (Twitter)
“A movie with balls.”
Pitch:
Set against the backdrop of a fascist future in which criminals are forced to participate in an ultra-violent form of soccer, cleat-clad gladiators must battle it out in a blood-frenzied free-for-all, where everyone is armed and armored, and no one is safe… not from their own teammates… not even from the ball. Enlisted into this lethal league is former UFC Heavyweight, Max Mauler, framed for a murder he didn’t commit by a corrupt prison warden who will stop at nothing to secure the championship title.
Nick Says: How has this not been made? I mean, there’s obvious Rollerball and Death Race connections. Just imagine how many balls to face. What a great movie for Vinnie Jones, Steve Railsback, and William Sanderson to wholly rock to the bone.
