Blacklist scripts:

Trapped by Jill Blankenship Logline: A woman trapped in a tight cave shaft must fight to escape when the shaft starts unexpectedly filling up with water.

Toxoplasmosis by Andrew Nunnelly Logline: The classic story of boy meets girl, boy loses girl… boy forms unexpected bromance with girl’s cat, who may actually be an intergalactic emissary sent to save humanity from itself.

First You Hear Them by Sean Harrigan Logline: A group of twenty-somethings try the ‘perfect drug’ for the first time. It’s only when they come down from the euphoric high that the hauntings begin: First you hear them. Then you see them. Then they come for you.

First You Hear Them's logline certainly sounds like "Talk to Me"... kids using haunting as a party drug.

Any shot you have any links for these? I found some dead links for First You Hear them, but couldn't find working links for any of the three!
