Just found this... and a question RE Rarelust site
Hello everyone - found your reddit group and wow... great stuff here. Grew up in 70s watching giallo films whenever I could. I'm surrounded in weird and wacky movies at home. I was curious if any of you use Rarelust for rare movies and if so, have you been able to download anything from it last weeks? it seems hopeless (perhaps it's my setup but i've tried everything)

Wasn’t sure if this was allowed but I wrote a sequel to Carnival of Souls that made it to the second round of the Austin Film Festival screenplay contest.
I wrote a found footage/meta sequel to one of my favorite films A Carnival of Souls (public domain). Think it's pretty solid but just wanted to share. I appreciate any reads. Thanks.
Logline: When a group of filmmakers set out to make the sequel to a famous 1960s horror movie with the last remaining star from the original involved, things take a sinister turn.
