“At the height of the bizarre animal attack craze, I set out on a mission to leave my mark in that industry as creature features are in my top five horror genres. Giganto Deer was a fever dream movie script I wrote in less than seven days with the constant support of my friend Lia Scott Price. It tells the story of a small, secluded town who is absolutely besieged by zombie deer infected with an accidental virus just in time for the high school prom. It has all the plot holes you can expect and all the absurdity and cliches of similar titles you maybe saw on television.
But I absolutely loved it! It was the first script I ever wrote. I was even so confident in the terrible narrative within that I unsuccessfully pitched the script to three different production studios who were in the midst of releasing their own bizarre animal attack features. It was a hard no, for sure, but recently I decided to go back over a decade and dig this one out of the vault. Instead of letting it die on a hard drive in my spare bedroom, I’m going to let the script rot on Amazon Kindle in hopes that it finds an audience somehow, someway in the future.”
