Script for Sale: The Void

My name is Russell Davis. I have written seven screenplays, published
a book called Jersey (It can be found in Barnes and Nobles, Amazon,
and on Ebay), wrote three shorts, and sold my script Entitled
to Michael Puccini. The film should start shooting this summer. I have
also worked as an entertainment journalist for G.O.O.D.S. magazine and
was a producer's assistant on two films Senior Cut Day and The
Butterfly Chasers.

I'm writing this query letter to see if your production company is
interested in purchasing or filming my feature script called The Void.
It's a three location film set mostly in an apartment, one scene in a
bar, and a small graduation. It has six main characters, one being
animated. Below is the log line and synopsis.

Genre: Dark Comedy, Sci - Fi Thriller

Log Line: A writer, down on his luck, injects himself with DMT so he
can talk to interdimensional beings about what’s wrong with his life.

Synopsis: John is a writer who hates his life. He lives at home with
his mother who continuously nags about his drinking problem. He can’t
stand his job due to all the disrespect he receives and his girlfriend
is no better. She doesn't respect him and she always leaves him in
last place. John believes the world is out to get him and he doesn't
know why. This leads him to inject himself with DMT.

He learned that if you take enough you can encounter interdimensional
beings that will interact with you. Soon he experiences trips of the
pleasuring kind until he meets The Worm. Soon after he gets attacked
by his possessed mother and has no choice but to kill her. He blames
The Worm for what he had to do, but The Worm explains it isn’t the
culprit.

John is informed that he is trapped in the Void; a place between
reality and the trenches of the human mind. He doesn't know who to
trust and he can’t tell the difference between reality and fantasy. He
must find a way to fight through his demons and escape The Void before
it consumes him forever.

The script contains strong violence, dark comedy, drug use, gore,
strong language, and strong sexual content.

The script is available upon request . xzilez26@gmail.com

Thanks,
Russell
