1. Scripts of any length must have been written competently. Horror comedies may be lighter in tone and sillier but there must be a method to the madness.
2. Scripts must be an original piece of work from the writers. Plagiarism will be grounds for disqualification and any detected use of AI to write the scripts will severely diminish the esteem a script is held in.
3. Scripts may portray negative themes but may not be used to denigrate groups. If your script is an incel or a klansman going on a rampage, there better be a well-written and firm way of knowing these actions are not wish fulfillment on the part of the writer.
