DOWNFALL
Joe Vincent loves his wife.
Having to potentially kill her for adultery shouldn't get in the way of that. His sales job is interesting; a bit more interesting when he may have bludgeoned his top client. His relationship with his aging mother is give and take. Unfortunately, someone may have taken her life. Although the authorities consider him a "person of interest", that means little at this point.
Allison Vincent has her own minor problems.
The relentless sexual advances from her boss and a close family friend needs immediate resolve. A brother and mother in-law who seriously need to look up the word “respect,” and a husband who recently seems to think the marital vow of “Till death do us part,” is now a mission statement.
Aside from these trivial situations, Joe and Allison Vincent are no different than most couples. Most couples who are in a Downfall. A defining moment is not always climatic, nor is a breakdown an appointment-based concept. Yet, faced with sudden extreme situations that shatter the norm, instinct favors the survival of the fittest.
Downfall delivers one devastating thriller viewed through the eyes of Joe and Allison Vincent, two distinctly different individuals with one glaring desire left in common; revenge.
Downfall has been adapted into a screenplay. Read both to see the differences!
7 ROOMS
Arthur Reed has returned to the mansion where he was born, married, and had his beautiful daughter. This will be the concluding chapter on his life, once the overdose of pills swallowed kick in. When lightning from a ferocious storm strikes the satellite dish on top of the mansion, Arthur’s plans take an unexpected turn. Before he can close his eyes for the final time, he enters his bathroom to find his wife showering. Normally, that would not be a problem, except for the minor detail that she died ten years earlier.
With a heavy cough and blood forming in his mouth, Arthur realizes that regardless of unexplained time shifts happening in his home, he is dying from the pills. Now up against the clock, he realizes that six more rooms hold portals to various past decades and the precious opportunity to change the most important moment of his life-- the tragic death of a loved one. All he must do is find the right room, bring the killer to justice and avoid changing any prior timelines before the fading glow of the satellite dish closes the portals.
That is, if the drugs don’t kill him first.
7 Rooms is a riveting thriller that follows one man’s race to save all that he held dear in his life, long after he originally failed to do so during his life. Rare is the opportunity to have a second chance to make a first impression. For Arthur, time just may heal all wounds.
