When a brain implant in his wife goes bad, a guru neurosurgeon must find a way to neutralise the implant; but when he discovers the problem is deliberate, not a glitch, he must find and destory the person tampering his wife’s mind before his wife kills herself, his daughter and others.
?When his wife's cybernetic implant turns her into a killing machine, a neurosurgeon must discover who tampered the implant in order to neutralise it? and save his wife.?

When he sees the teacher who sexually assaulted him as a child, a young executive’s memories of years of abuse flood back and he embarks on a mission to protect other boys, only to discover what he really seeks is to avenge his abused friend’s suicide.
Thanks for persisting with this dpg. "protect other boys" becomes a crusade to try and get authority figures (police, the current school etc.) to stop the teacher having contact with boys ie a flawed active-passive approach. His game plan up…

Thanks guys - reread SLEEPERS (transcript) just to make sure.?? Almost no intersection other than childhood sexual abuse and the urge to get even.? But the message is clear - logline? needs to not be mistaken for Sleepers.? Too many…

When a deadly soil-borne virus is released in Canberra, an obsessed scientist battles military and political forces to save the city from pre-emptive destruction.
Haha. Are you sure you want to set it in Canberra? Syd, Melb, Perth, Adelaide all seem a bit more "at stake". Albury even! But seriously, the logline has some interest for me, suggesting some large and evil conspiracy. As…

When women are refused jobs at the city’s largest company, a group of women must overcome backward attitudes, language barriers, poverty and tradition to ignite a community battle from the factory gates to the highest courts, for equality.
Great concept. You should "prosecute" this idea if you're passionate about it. For me, the logline was too long and detailed. I could have got excited about "When women are refused jobs at the city's largest company, a group of…

Spending months planning his wife’s murder to make it look like suicide. A man comes home to find his wife has killed herself. He now has to prove he didn’t do it.

Talented violinst faces two options of getting away with his suffering-playing the violin.Either follow his evil thoughts that lead him to make a radical solution or follow his best friend’s escape plan.
Sorry, this just doesn't work for me. I've got no idea what is "his suffering" - apparently somehow connected to his talent. And I've got no idea what his choices mean. I don't know what the problem is, nor the…

After finding fame with a stolen screenplay of a recently deceased unsigned screenwriter a movie studio’s script reader turns to murdering his backlog of budding screenwriters for their movie ideas.
BTW - for some reason could not see your post posts. Dark comedy. Good. But same questions. Who's the hero, what's the goal, what are the stakes.

I'm not sure if you are thinking Macabre or humour but this appeals to me as an opening. But it's not at all clear where it is going - where does it all end (presume not happily ever after). Is…
