Well then, how about "Awakenings"?

And if that's already been taken too, how about "Once Upon A #$!&^%!$# TIME"??

I really wish other writers would stop stealing my ideas!

Doc's advice is extremely useful and I'll try it out. I thought of "Shallow Grave" as another possibility, only to find both a 1987 and 1994 movie by that title on imbd.com. Incidentally, movie titles can indeed be legally recycled; they are not copyrightable, but it's confusing and probably bad form to do so, I suppose.

The film starts out in well-worn fashion: Writer in southern mansion trying to focus on his masterpiece is driven out in terror by the shenanigans of a very angry and nasty phantasm. The twist begins when he indignantly decides to go back inside and tough it out. Ghosts, mystery, murder, sex and romance. "This is the one they'll remember me for".

I'll say no more since one or more of you would doubtless steal the concept before I can complete the script, like always.

Thanks to your advice I came up with "Cat's Eyes", which indeed has linkage to the story (the ghost, beautiful, black and young, has catlike eyes). The only major non-foreign film using this exact title was a 1980's Stephen King TV movie anthology of 3 stories which, ironically, I actually saw at that time.

As an aside, I've had a thinking man's post-apolocalyptic genre script looked at by two significant production players via referrals through friends/relatives. They gave me kudos and advice. Neither one sent a check.

Great to be a creative genius!
