GIDEON’S REVENGE
By David Poulshock

GENRE: Action, Adventure
LOGLINE:

A modern day Robin Hood takes American Justice to a whole new level.

SYNOPSIS:

Prime time, Washington D.C.A television studio. A talk show, live on the air. Its famous host interviews a presidential candidate. Wham! Masked commandos swoop and whisk away the candidate before as fifty million viewers see it all come down. Their leader isbillionaire mastermind Simon Gideon. He doesn't want a ransom. He wants to just wants revenge.

Next morning, news crews find the kidnapped candidate in Freedom Plaza, alive and kicking, butt-naked, and shackled to a pillory. A Jumbotron looms above him, playing a video-loop of his sexual exploits and dirty deals. In other words, he’s caught with his pants down for the whole world see — even before Agent Laswell Pinchon arrives on the scene.

And so the chase is on: two men on either side of the law careening toward a final confrontation — until they discover that they share a common enemy and Agent Pinchon discovers he must choose sides.
