Kickback

After his ne’er do well younger brother, Mikey, gets in over his head with a violent loan shark, Mr. Rizione. Joe, already in a dire financial situation with his pregnant girlfriend, Sara, whom he’s know for less than a year, decides to rob a bank with Mikey and his hot-headed, parole friend Anton. Complicating matters are Ethan, Anton’s parole officer, starts sniffing around, Sara becomes suspicious to what Joe is up to, an ex-con, Jermaine, gets double crossed and wants revenge and Mr. Rizione decides to kill them regardless whether they get the money or not.

It is a gritty, slice of life crima drama that is highlighted with strong character, sharp dialogue and a sense of humour. KICKBACK is a Praxis Fellowship Winning script.

Terror Unleashed

Michelle, hurting after he husband leaves her for a younger real estate agent, decides to move her and her young daughter, Ariel, out to a sleepy lake town. Only, a foreign terror has taken up residence in the dense forest behind her place and begins killing off towns folk. A government agency cuts off access to the town to prevent a media storm and that traps them with Karl, her middle aged hunter neighbour, Jay, her self-centered, cocky boyfriend who hates her aimless younger brother, and John, Michelle’s aimless younger brother who hates Jay, in the town with the creature.

Terror Unleashed is a tense, contained, horror script with a humourous edge that preaches the threat of violence and terror rather than gratuitious gore and cheap thrills.

OPTION5

It’s dark and you find yourself in the middle of a rainstorm. You’re driving down the road and you come across a bus stop. There, you see an old friend that at one time saved your life, the girl of your dreams, and an elderly woman who’s just had a heart-attack. What do you do?

For BEN RICHARDS, he has the Opportunity to relive this moment over and over until he gets it right. Whatever his choice, reminiscing with the old friend, an unbelievable night with the girl of his dreams, or an eye opening experience saving the older woman, Ben finds himself back at the bus stop, in the rain, having to make the same choice – what should he do?

> > Objective

Mk Stevens and Tim Rockey are pleased to introduce, OPTION5, a unique collaborative film project. Our goal: to create five individual short films that combine to forge one feature length film. Each short will focus on one of the options from the scenario and will take our main character Ben, on the trip of his life as he decides what choice to make.

We will soon be looking for filmmakers in the capacity of Writers, Directors, and Producers, whether they are already established in the industry, currently students, or aspiring filmmakers looking for their first break.
