We’ve completed a short horror film (“Pray v Prey”)—but the ending isn’t landing.
So we’re opening it up.
Also, it might not be possible to get the entire cast back for reshoots, so we're open to creative solutions.

This isn’t just a story pitch contest.
Selected ideas may be produced and included in the final film.
You’re not just submitting—you’re stepping into the process.
