Story ideas you just want to write/film/develop?

...but due to your job or contemporary circumstances you can't?


I always want to write/direct a story that focuses on myths and legends, especially local spirits around here such as Pontianak (female vampiress from death of pregnant woman at childbirth) or Toyol (Unborn fetuses twisted into life by a black magician). Focusing on this is how they interact with humans, particularly with their close living relatives. Will they react with hostility? Can the creatures (particularly the Pontianak) even recognize their living kin? And what will the living do once they found out that about their dead or unborn ones?

I want this story to be animated/CG-ala-Pixar-Dreamworks (world's first CG horror film) and I'll present the whole thing from the POV of a child. Thinking about it, it's probably going to be more depressing and heartbreaking and sad instead of horrifying, but just want to see if the idea can even be pushed forward to.
