| Title: | WOE TO THE WICKED |
| Logline: | When the arrival of a mysterious stranger leads to the death of a drug lord’s brother, the residents of a small town must band together to survive by standing up to the drug cartel that has been abusing and killing them for years. |
| Pitch: | THE LAST STAND meets HIGH NOON |
| Writer: | Chris Dennis |
| Genre: | Action | Thriller |
| Why to Read: | This is an energetic, fast-paced thrill ride set in a strange and otherworldly town, creating a magnificent setting for this explosive story of retribution. The plot is tense and energetic, and despite the ghostly individual in the center of the story, there isn’t any time spent dwelling on mysticism or magic, instead focusing on the tangible world. The villain is appalling and evil, and can be truly hated from the first scene, while the lead grows from accepting of his grim fate into a strong, courageous hero, willing to fight for his family, his town, and the memory of his friend. The action is well-crafted, the atmosphere pitch-perfect, and everything comes together to craft an unforgettable revenge story. |
