“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 ONE-HUNDRED AND ONE:
“Does anyone really care about these little comments I write before each pitch? For that matter, does anyone really care about the pitches themselves? Remind me how many days are in a year. So tired….”
– Andy Cosby (Twitter)
“Magic Only Works One Way.”
Pitch:
THE SORCERER’S CODE – When a beloved king is assassinated only moments before signing a treaty that would have united several warring empires and finally brought peace to their troubled land, a powerful mystic is called in to decipher an ancient and forbidden alchemical formula that will allow a single knight to travel back in time to prevent the king’s untimely demise. Thus the chosen knight embarks on a daring and treacherous quest to undo fate itself, and in the process unravel an insidious conspiracy growing inside the kingdom, one that threatens to destroy more than just the peace they have fought so long to achieve.
Nick Says: I dig it. Especially with Julian McMahon rocking it as the mystic and the possibilities we’ve all craved when thinking of how good of a knight Kiefer Sutherland could be. God damn, the possibilities… and then he jumps into a Christmas tree.
