THE DARK SIDE OF LUST
By Carmen Anthony Fiore

GENRE: Thriller
LOGLINE: Chief of Police Homer Houseman is your garden variety narcissist and a legend in his own mind, thinking the world revolves around him. If opposed or slighted, it's vengeance time; add sadism, sociopathy and an overcharged id to the mix and you have an out-of-control human time bomb that's about to explode, and he has to be stopped before he kills again.

SYNOPSIS:

The Dark Side of Lust features an antagonist who harbors an abnormal sex drive garnished with a heavy dose of malignant narcissism. He personifies the human male out of control. With his sadism in tow, he couldn't care less about the human wreckage left behind in his deviant wake. Despite being a chief of police, he lives a secret life preying on young women. To stop this female desecration, enter a transferred detective protagonist, Bart lane, who--slowly but surely--zeros in on his boss while working under the supercilious Houseman. The chief likes to toy with Lane, sending him on the missing-women cases to keep him occupied. It comes back to "bite" Houseman when Lane grows suspicious of his boss and eventually his cop's curiosity pushes him to investigate (seriously) the three mssing women cases assigned to him while knowing if he's wrong it could jeopardize his career; if he's right it could end up a homicide epidemic. With a twist ending, the women help Lane claim mission accomplished. (Note: The Dark Side of Lust screenplay is listed with, and is available from, InkTip.com)
