Town that Demanded Recompense, tale of revenge which incorporates elements of the Spaghetti Western, Fantasy, Akira Kurosawa Samurai film, and the old Disney classic Something Wicked this Way Comes. Evil Beauty, co-written with Guatemalan Oscar Jimenez, a movie which is primarily set in Guatemala which is a homage not only to the classic Universal monster movies of yesteryear but also to the heroic pulp fiction of that era as well. The Rapier, which centers around the exploits of Jason Graves who is a bad boy swashbuckling actor and somewhat protege of Douglas Fairbanks who inadvertently becomes the world's first costumed vigilante after stopping a crime dressed up as the character from his latest film. I have two versions of the Rapier, one which highlights the action element of the story and the other which highlights the comedic elements of the story. Victims which is a low budget Horror/Thriller which features an experienced serial killer who is mentoring his nephew on how to get away with murder. The overall theme of this movie is that evil is akin to the legendary Ouroboros, eventually in some shape or manner it always ends up devouring itself. Stroke of Luck, which is an ensemble action movie featuring a disbarred Texas Lawyer turned high stakes illegal poker player who by complete chance finds himself way over his head in high intensity Action/Adventure along the lines of what one would expect from a Guy Ritchie or Robert Rodriquez film or perhaps something John Carpenter would have made if he had decided to make a modern day movie which had similar basic elements to Big Trouble in Litttle China but featuring a main protagonist who was modeled after the concept of a younger Texan governor Rick Perry, if his life had taken a seriously surrealistic turn one night in a seedy bar in NYC. Savior which is a science fiction movie set in the near future after a pandemic given the name “Red Death” sweeps the world a Presidential order calls for the creation of a government agency to deal with the problem as quickly and efficiently as possible. The Strategic Agency against Viral Infections by Organized Resistance. SAVIOR delivers the cure, and in doing so elevates itself in the eyes of the people to where the government calls on it to address other major societal issues facing the country one by one. Now former SAVIOR leader Steve Ryker has started to have suspicions about the true origins and intentions of said organization and embarks on a quest of redemption for him and the surviving members of his elite combat team. Guardians of the Grail, set in the 1300's tells the story of a group of three Knights Templars who are tasked with protecting a mysterious woman who possess a fragment of an ancient text which leads them on an epic journey across Europe and coming to a fateful conclusion deep within the Middle East. Finally I have two untitled feature length screenplays, of which I have not as of yet found a proper title for. One is Horror movie based upon a nightmare I had repeatedly for about a week, while the other one is based upon a true story. Both of which were written fairly early on and would require a solid rewrite and as well as some thought about what to properly title them.
