kungfuwaynewhoEveryone's invited - even and especially those who haven't looked at a single word of my screenplay. Because the first thing anyone looks at is the title, and it will help shape preconceptions, make you decide if you want to read or not, etc.
What you need to know: it's a vampire movie set in 18th century Romania. It's more about creepy and atmosphere than it is about shocks and gore. So I've got some ideas, and if you want to throw something in the pot, please do so. Because I am horrible at coming up with titles and it is now T-minus one month and I'm starting to freak out.
Different Names for Vampires
Strigoi
Moroi
Vampir
Vampyre
Upir
Upyr
Upyri
Wampir
Dhampir
Dhampyr
Izcacus
Place Names
The Castle
(The) Castle Bathory
The Castle on the Mountain
And that's all I've got. In the fine tradition of brainstorming, I'm not censoring anything I think of, so if there's something on here that makes you go "oh girl you can't name it that," then say so, no prob. And if you can think of anything at all, toss it out there.
