Synopsis: Coming from a broken home, sports are the only thing that gives Pamela Justice’s life a purpose. At the age of 9 she acquires her first black belt in karate and as a young teen she is a champion. By her senior year of high school Pamela alternates between elite level karate, gymnastic, and cheerleading squads.

Then the unimaginable happens. During a routine gymnastics practice, Pamela breaks her neck and is instantly paralyzed. Doctors don’t know if she would ever walk again, much less fight. After days of deep depression, Pamela rediscovers the willpower that made her an elite competitor. When she moves her big toe for the first time it makes the nightly news. Three months later Pamela is walking again and using her martial arts training as physical therapy.

Over the next year Pamela will face an uphill struggle just to regain the semblance of a normal life. Through many tests she will cling to the strength and discipline of martial arts, refusing to let anything stand in the way of her dream—to ascend to the level of Karate Master.

HIGHWAY 220


HIGHWAY 220...Outlaws, Bootleggers and Flathead Fords...the Legends of Stock Car Racing in America.

Synopsis: Our series, as told through the lives of Bill Blair and the Blair family, is based on the characters from the 1930’s and 40’s who became the legends of early dirt track racing. Bill and his peers were responsible for creating the largest sport in American history ... but it is a sordid tale. They were good men in the toughest of times, pulled in many directions by many forces. Some were guided by strong values, others fell prey to obsession, greed and glory. These were the days when racing was racing, before the rules, before the show, before the spectacle.

BLOOD-SUCKING LEECHES and FLEASH-EATING MAGGOTS

-

 

Logline: A stripper stranded in a desert town must escape the clutches of a deranged local doctor. 

Synopsis: Fed up with her abusive boyfriend, beautiful Vegas stripper CANDY CARMEL (25) swipes a wad of his cash and hits the road. A nighttime car accident leaves her stranded in a desolate Nevada town, where she reluctantly agrees to let eccentric local physician DOC KRUGER (50-60) treat her cuts with leeches, despite her fear of bugs. But when her infected leg worsens, she balks at allowing him to use maggots to heal her wounds.

Stuck in town while recovering and waiting for sleazy mechanic DRAGON to fix her car, Candy carries on a flirtation with decent local cop PRESTON PARKER (30) and is drawn into a sordid relationship with a couple of local swingers, LUPE and BONGO. Fearful that her infected leg may need to be amputated, Candy reluctantly submits to the doctor's questionable maggot therapy. But Candy soon learns that many of the townsfolk have undergone similar medical treatment, with disastrous results. A recent heat wave has altered the creatures' metabolism, causing the maggots to burrow deeper and triggering erratic behavior in their hosts. Meanwhile, the leeches have been similarly affected, growing alarmingly in size and in their appetite for blood. 

Candy asks Doc Kruger to remove her maggots, but instead he drugs her and locks her in his office with a cast on her leg. Realizing she’s in the care of a madman, Candy must utilize all her athleticism and stripper skills to remove the maggots from her body and escape. As the heat wave intensifies, Candy joins forces with Parker in a final battle with the now out-of-control infestation….Budget 1.5m, Status: Script Ready/Financing
