In A World...

January 14, 2006 · by The Urban Shockah · Permalink · comment on this post in the forum · Category: Original Version, the screenplay

In an attempt to get this ball rolling a little faster, and as the Designated Inside Man digging my way up from the center toward the outside (I'll explain that later), I present to you eight (8) premises for a Prison Planet movie, written in the style of a cheesy trailer voiceover, composed as quickly as I can. I'm not promising quality here, mind you, merely quantity. Enjoy!

1. In a world where love is outlawed and only outlaws love, one woman, imprisoned on a planet for the ultimate crime, will break the bonds of her captivity and take the battle to the heart of the enemy.

2. In a world where humanity is rapidly evolving, but only the pure have the power, one man will lead his fellow Impuritans against the oppressors... and the war for the future of the human race will begin.

3. In a world where telepathy is a disease and the infected are prisoners, one woman will discover a shocking truth that could change everything... but on a world where a mind can be read as easily as opening a book, how can any secret be safe?

4. In a world where no one dies and everyone lives forever, the universe's most dangerous criminals are confined to one planet. But when one man, convicted of a crime he did not commit, finds an ancient secret under the planet's surface, he finds the means to escape... that could... set... the universe... ON FIRE.

5. In a world where information is the only currency, and ideas can be contracted like diseases, one woman finds the ultimate oasis in a universe of data. But to keep it, she'll have to fight the most hardened and despicable people in the galaxy: the prisoners of Dante IV.

6. In a world where vampires and werewolves prowl the galaxy, and the Ultimate Evil plots the downfall the Last Free Men, one man will find hope where he leasts expects it: in the hearts of the most dangerous criminals the world has ever seen. There's only one problem: they're locked away in the most impregnable prison ever created.

7. In a world where lives are bought and sold with the touch of a button, and the human soul has a market value, one woman will rebel and pay the ultimate price: Banishment. On this planet, she must learn to survive by only her strength, her wits... and the knowledge that SOME THINGS ARE NOT FOR SALE.

8. In a world where biological organisms are outlawed and only the metal-born may rule, mankind are codemned to a single outpost on the edge of the galaxy. But one man discovers the secret of the machines, and with the help of a sympathetic group of robots, they will rise up and fight for our dignity, our integrity.... and our humanity.
