on When a sentient video game character falls in love with the real-life player, she must get rid of the other characters to gain the player’s affections, even if that means rewriting the game script.

This is cool! It's like a reveres Her, where the AI is the main character - It's a digi-girl meets boy love story. The premise needs more clarity though. What kind of game? First-person shooter? Battle royal? A quest? Lastly,…
on A righteous but gullible whistle-blower must obtain evidence her intimidating boss is a murderous monster before he catches on and takes sadistic steps to silence her for good.

I can only assume that she MUST obtain evidence now that he killed someone close to her... This is your inciting event, and it needs to be front and center in the logline - start with that. Secondly, what's the…

Thanks Savino.
on After an actual demon possesses his wife during rehearsals for a stage version of The Exorcist, a spineless director must fight his demonic spouse to save the cast and crew.

Great suggestion, thanks for that. I was going for a coward needing to overcome his fears, but the theological angle could work too.
on After an actual demon possesses his wife during rehearsals for a stage version of The Exorcist, a spineless director must fight his demonic spouse to save the cast and crew.

This is a logline for a mockumentary (fake documentary) I'm currently writing - it's aimed at being a contained horror-comedy.
on In the depths of the depression, a small time con artist teams up with a seasoned pro to con $500,000 from a ruthless mobster to avenge the mobster’s murder of his mentor.

A great example, I'd make the wording a bit more "active sounding". For example: After a ruthless mobster kills his mentor, a small-time con artist takes revenge by teaming up with a seasoned pro to get half a million out…
on When evidence surfaces that an earlier generation of rebellious replicants has reproduced, a compliant next generation blade runner must find and ‘retire’ the child whose existence threatens human domination.

In order to not rely on the previous IP, this could also work: When a rebellious humanoid replicant gives birth, a genetics law enforcer must “retire” the child whose existence threatens humanity.
on In a post-civilization future, when an old project of reintroducing the human species on Earth is activated, a young 2.0 lonely human travels across the world, to be with others like him, just to end up disappointed with the new civilization being developed.

There are too many threads to this narrative for the logline to make sense. Describe one major event that motivates the human 2.0 to take action in pursuit of one clear goal.? Also, no need to name the character. Check…
on On a post-apocalyptic Earth with one side continually facing the sun, a gritty outsider and the metaphysical representation of his soul are forced into facing a new tyrannical regime that threatens the last remains of humanity.

Arguably, so are all the other survivors. What is it specifically about this dude that makes his struggle against the regime interesting, or rather more interesting than anyone else's?
on An? wheelchair-bound college girl must use her physical abilities and mental acumen to save her trapped friends from zombies who have surrounded their cottage.

It's a zombie flick with a twist - the main character is wheelchair-bound. As the genre is well established and chock full of tropes, the trick is to find an appropriate twist - a wheelchair may be enough, but it's…
