Hi David,

I noticed your post seeking experienced screenwriters for elevated horror/thriller development, and I wanted to introduce one of my completed feature projects, Abyssfall.

Abyssfall is a dark fantasy / sci-fi horror feature with strong elevated horror elements layered through the story. Tonally, it sits in the space of atmospheric survival horror, ecological dread, and mythic world-building, with the story driven by a female protagonist who uncovers an ancient subterranean intelligence hidden beneath the Amazon rainforest.

The project can be positioned as approximately 60% dark fantasy and 40% sci-fi horror, with the horror emerging not only from creatures or danger, but from biology, evolution, isolation, and the terrifying idea that humanity may not be the planet’s final design.

The full vision has a large cinematic scale and franchise potential, but I would be happy to discuss whether it aligns with your current development needs, creative direction, and budget expectations.
