Sales Pitch for Tortured Soul –
My Film is about a normal average man whose daughter has
been kidnapped. The dad then goes on an adventure/journey to find his daughter. On
his adventure (consisting of bombs, guns and gangsters) he comes across a woman
who has just escaped from a mental institution. The woman tries to kill the
dad. They then come to an agreement that if the woman helps him look for his daughter; he won’t take her back to the mental institute. He then carries on his
journey to find his daughter, now accompanied by the mental woman. While he is
on his journey, his daughter is being beaten and tortured brutally (think about
Saw contraptions). While she is left dying; she hears the voices of the dead
people who were slaughtered before her. They try and help the daughter escape.
The dad and mental woman reach the torture chamber after the daughter escapes
but they do not know this. They are then imprisoned and tortured and the mental
woman kills herself in order to help the dad escape.
A more gory version of Finding Nemo with a plot twist at the end.
