What script should I insist on...?

I have 2 screenplays I want to work on, so it might one day be sent to one of the services providing query services or access to various producers, agents, etc.(I recently found about a few of them, while browsing the internet) My greatest dream is to bring all of my... 12:)... screenplays to a good enough level but for the moment, I can only focus on one at the time... I would like to work on one of the following two:
1)An action screenplay set in a present day big city. It involves gunfights, Mafia families, crooked cops and diamonds..
2)A supernatural/horror type of story with some action elements in it(fights) that features ghosts, demons and witchcraft.
Which one do you think I should focus on at this time? Which of these subjects do you find more interesting? Which one would make people want to know more and request to read it?:) Thank you for taking the time to read this!
 
Since you want to sell it, I would focus on the one you are most passionate about...

Saying that a well written low budget (?) horror would likely have a slightly better chance of selling that an action (expensive) screenplay.
