The Apprentices

Gargoyles at Bear Lake

I'm sitting with a man who wants to be a movie producer about forty years ago.  He says I want you to write a screenplay based on the Shining.

A week later I'm saying to him the movie is coming out in a couple of months.

He says to me I want you to write a screenplay on the Shining.

While I was paid he did not produce it. Update to 2019.  I dust it off and get ready to rewrite it on the computer.  Seven month later it is ready. It has a hotel and a small town in the mountains.  It has a really bad demon who controls some really hungry gargoyles.  It has a town full of metaphysical minded people. And it is a horror script.

Police detectives Frank and Pete get the case Frank is a middle-aged divorced man with child visitation.

Seven Golden Candlesticks

The Bible, the book of Revelations. As a teenager I went to Sunday school and once a year the pastor gave a sermon on revelations, usually on New Year's eve before the Rose Parade. He used a lot of charts which I studied carefully and I wondered if I could translate this into a movie. My title became Seven Golden Candlesticks, based on the seven churches of the first century.  Many of the prophecies I found confusing such as the bear of the North, the lion and her colony and the Eagle; these things and not even come about yet, they would be centuries away. So the idea became simple, quite like turning it into A B-movie script. My hero would be a rebel who got left behind after the rapture and is now fighting evil. The villain would be a general who commands all of forces in the UN. He would be big brother or the antichrist, the dictator of the world government. The opening scene is a beach party with the UN soldiers having a good time. The rebels sneak up on them and after some speechifying, massacre them. From our point it becomes a running battle between the good guy and the bad guy until we get to the final battle.
