Malice
Logline:
An emotionally collapsed cop has to protect a victim of domestic violence from her abusive dead husband.
Synopsis:
On a dark rainy day, in a quiet sleepy town, police officer Emily is preparing to wind up her work for the evening when an unexpected visitor to the police station drags her into a bizarre chain of events that will soon defy all logic and explanation. On her way to investigate what seems like a regular domestic violence incident, Emily soon finds herself unknowingly tangled in a crime that was committed ten years ago, in which both the assailants and victims had lost their lives.
This is the pilot for a new television series.
‘Malice’ is a prelude to the more compelling stories that lie hidden in the sleepy little town of Bury. While this pilot teases us with a taste of what to expect in the coming chapters, it also establishes categorically, the genre of horror we shall meet in the coming chapters. With each character and with each situation enveloped by an aura of mystery, the possibilities abound.
