Horror movie ideas

IDEA 1

APOCALYPTIC HORROR.
Scientist working for american drug company creates cure for AIDS which stops the virus destroying immune system. It is tested on people, found to work on 5% of people, other 95% seems to have no effect on. Drug is set for release when test subjects seem to start showing bad symptoms.The scientist is money hungry and seeks to bring in the massive wealth which can be gained by mass selling the drug worldwide.

People who the drug apparently had no effect on find that the virus no longer makes the immune system weaker but increases it, along with their overall speed, body strength and pain threshold. The powered up virus is then spread through bites, cut, scratches ect.

Classic biological disaster movie occurs in which scientists family + scientist work colleagues fight for survival until scientists daughter and father are alive.. father sacrifices himself to find cure for daughter bla bla bla...

IDEA 2

Similar to idea one but based around the ideas of this mind controlling fungus...

"The finding shows that parasitic fungi evolved the ability to control the creatures they infect in the distant past, even before the rise of the Himalayas. The fungus, which is alive and well in forests today, latches on to carpenter ants as they cross the forest floor before returning to their nests high in the canopy. The fungus grows inside the ants and releases chemicals that affect their behaviour. Some ants leave the colony and wander off to find fresh leaves on their own, while others fall from their tree-top havens on to leaves nearer the ground. The final stage of the parasitic death sentence is the most macabre. In their last hours, infected ants move towards the underside of the leaf they are on and lock their mandibles in a "death grip" around the central vein, immobilising themselves and locking the fungus in position. "This can happen en masse. You can find whole graveyards with 20 or 30 ants in a square metre. Each time, they are on leaves that are a particular height off the ground and they have bitten into the main vein before dying," said David Hughes at Harvard University."
Fungus is tested on by humans until it starts coltrolling them.. apocalyptic horror starts to happen...
