Football Based Films That Should Be Made

Football gets its fair share of excitement but we rarely see football films based on what happens in real life. Sure we see the best goals of the World Cup, and title winning season films but how about digging a bit deeper? Here we give a list of football films that should most definitely be made.

A Welsh Shining (Horror, Thriller)

A woman with a mysterious little Welshman arrive at a hotel where things appear to be normal, until a brief look at the Welshman’s phone unlocks a series of horrors, and a truth the woman did not see coming.

Eight Lives Left (Documentary)

A cat based in East London gives a detailed account of life living with a footballer, culminating in 20 seconds of unforgettable recorded footage that led the cat to fame, and the footballer to a wage cut.

The Snitch (Drama)

A footballers wife starts her own investigation after private social media posts are leaked to the gutter press, and discovers the culprit is suing her for libel.

What Have I Done This Summer? (Horror)

A Dutchman who is promised magic and riches, goes through a mysterious departures door at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam and arrives in Manchester about 95 minutes later only to discover there is no magic, just total horror.

Money For Nothing (Comedy, Drama)

A young man with no footballing skills cons his way through the English league’s and international captaincy as a centre-back whilst getting paid to do nothing. (This is the prequel to ‘Greece – The Musical’)

I Don’t Love You That Much (Drama)

A dwarf from Argentina who has played at one club most of his life is given a choice. Stay here if you love us, for less money, or pretend you have no choice and head to Paris for more money.

Look Me In The Eye (Thriller)

A handshake between a German and an Italian leads to a London turf war.

It Wasn’t Me 8 (Crime, Drama)

The eighth installment of It Wasn’t Me once again stars a left-back from France currently in Manchester, UK. Sources suggest there may be another four of these films.

Not Long Now (Documentary)

Based on the prolonged transfer of Wesley Sneijder to Manchester United, still ongoing after twelve years. Footage includes the player arriving at Manchester Airport no less than fifteen times, plus comments from fans who still hold belief he will join soon. (Rumours suggest Not Long Now II is in production featuring Frenkie De Jong).
