Screamplay

A would-be screenwriter arrives in Hollywood and is given a chance to write a horror script. The quirky caretaker of an apartment building offers him a place to stay, but when he begins to use the building's residents in his story, several of them turn up dead. Offbeat mix of noir parody and slasher shocks stars director/co-scripter Rufus Butler Seder, Katy Bolger, and underground film icon George Kuchar. 90 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital stereo; audio commentary; featurette; interview; more.
