The recently announced Amazon Studios is ready to get down to business in terms of pumping out the scares, and we’ve got the first word on what wicked things will soon be scratching at your door right here for ya!
The following properties were all discovered via the Amazon Studios site:
Angel Castillo’s The 100 Deaths of Mort Grimley
In this animated comedy, Hell desperately needs new customers. And Mort Grimley, new to the Underworld after accidentally taking his own life, is offered a deal: Get Hell’s numbers up and maybe get a transfer out (and up), or face eternity in fire and brimstone alongside the cruel mother he tried to escape.
You can read the pilot script here.
Nathan Thomas’ Doomsday
This film is a mockumentary that follows an ensemble of diverse characters as they ready themselves for the supposed end of the world — including the guru who made the doomsday prediction.

Other projects announced included a children’s show and a couple of comedies. Read about them by clicking the link at the bottom of the page to Hollywonk. The folks behind each received $10,000 option extensions. Pretty nifty!
