: Silicon Valley WHERE (wolf)
Here’s the pilot episode of my latest idea for a TV series . It’s a comedy horror mashup . . .
Wilson Heuristic Established Research Enterprise (AKA WHERE, Inc) is a Silicon Valley based computer gaming company. WHERE’s ace computer programmer – Garrett – has developed a new piece of software. The program – iScream – allows a user to take live movies and transform them into horror movies by altering faces and scenery – all in real time.
While the program is very successful, Garrett is depressed because he recently broke up with his girlfriend. To try to forget her, he goes backpacking alone deep in the woods of Southern Bavaria. One night, when the moon is full, and having nothing better to do he takes out his iPad and opens up iScream. At that moment he is attacked by a huge wolf. Garrett scares off the wolf by turning his iPad around – the wolf (yes a werewolf) sees himself as a human and gets confused. However, in the attack Garrett is bitten.
Back home in Silicon Valley, Garrett resumes his regular life working at WHERE, Inc. But at the next full moon Garrett is transformed into a werewolf. Garrett runs outside and kills & eats various neighborhood pets. Garrett has no memory of this. But the next day, as he hears this on the news he looks around his apartment and notices pieces of bloody fur on the rug. He has a thought. He goes back and re-plays the iScream movie from his vacation and he realizes what has happened. He has become the WHERE (wolf)
That’s as far as I’ve gotten in this story. Somehow he has to come to grips with this. He’s got a new girlfriend, he needs to make a special presentation at a conference that is taking place at the next full moon, etc, etc.
BTW, for those of you who are not computer geeks, the mis-spelling of werewolf is also a computer joke.
