I’m left questioning who the psychotic girlfriend belongs to. Is it one that followed the alien or the man’s girlfriend that leaves one questioning why he has this girlfriend.
Hello, I think you can easyly do it in one sentence. If you are writing a logline to test a concept and spot story problems before writing the actual script it would be better to avoid rethoric sentences like “Only one thing stands in her way?” : this doesn’t help in spotting story problems, nor in testing the concept.
Anyway, I like the concept.
‘When an alien woman find her only possible mate on earth, she must deal with his deadbeat stoner attitude and his psychotically jalous nut-job girlfriend’.
It could be funny, yes. I’m not sure the alien woman should be the main character. She’s not as powerfully described as the stoner and the nutjob girl. I would pick the stoner as a protagonist, so he will have 2 problems: the alien woman and his nutjob girlfriend.
Anyway, goodluck !
You can condense the second sentence, we need to know whats at stake. An ellipses is a waste of space and also consider giving us an idea of the inner journey, will the alien defeat the girlfriend?
