“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 FOUR:
What would happen if you mixed MAZES AND MONSTERS with JUMANJI… only with the production value of BEAST MASTER… the series? Let’s find out, shall we?”

“Shall We Play a Game?”
Pitch:
JOHNNY’S QUEST – While shopping at the local flea market, avid fantasy gamer Johnny Dresden chances upon a set of what he thinks are hand-carved RPG dice. Unfortunately, what he’s really discovered are the cursed casting bones of an evil Viking Cleromancer. Upon using the “dice” for the first time during one of his regular role-playing sessions, Johnny and his friends are magically transported into their own game world, where they’re forced to complete the quest their characters had been assigned or forfeit their souls and be forever lost inside the imaginary realm.
Nick Says: What the hell is a Cleromancer? Amazing! And notice, not once were the RPG tools mentioned cards. Good old fashioned dice, how it’s meant to be. It’s a shame Shia LaBeouf is famous still because this would be a role he was born to play. Maybe a few more movies like Eagle Eye before he’s too old and he can be ours!
