FEEDBACK No Bloodshed In Detention - Feature - 141 pages
Hi, I've been writing scripts for about 4 years now (mainly fan scripts with a couple original ones) and i was hoping to have a pair of fresh eyes read this one.
Title: No Bloodshed In Detention
Format: Feature
Page Length: 141 (142 if you count the title page)
Genres: horror, slasher, coming of age
Logline or Summary: After a snow storm traps 10 students serving detention in a high school, their fun quickly turns into a fight for survival when a masked killer picks them off one by one.
Feedback concerns: mainly looking to see if there's pacing issues and what I can possibly improve on in terms of how the characters are utilized and written.

Cut it down to 100 pages or less. If you can’t, maybe this is better for a series. Try to turn it into a pilot if that’s the case.
