“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 THREE:
“You know what the world needs? More babies gone bad movies. Or is it just me?”
– Andy Cosby (Twitter)
“Their Children are Our Future”
Pitch:
BIRTHQUAKE – Twenty-four hours following an unprecedented astrological event in which a comet passes directly between the Earth and the Moon, every woman on the planet capable of conceiving inexplicably find themselves several months pregnant. A mere three weeks later, the children come to full term, each born with some strange and powerful psychokinetic ability. A special task force is assigned to study the bizarre phenomenon, led by the father of one of the “star children” – a father who also happens to be a leading geneticist working for the U.S. government. What he discovers could radically alter the course of human evolution, but will he have time to share his findings before the extraterrestrials responsible for the mass impregnation return to reap what they have sewn?
Nick Says: Please tell me we could make this movie under the working title ‘Spacerape”, just for fun? Please?
