      In both versions of your logline, the discovery of the human test subjects muddles the main story. How does this discovery change the activist’s goals? Something has to change.

      Also, think a bit more about the GoPros you want to use for production. Wouldn’t your activist also have access to such cameras, thereby enabling them to stream the raid live? Seems like the logical thing to do to increase the impact of their protest. And if they are streaming the raid live, it would be a really bad idea for the security forces to kill them outright.

      What about the human test subjects?? Shouldn’t part of the objective goal be to rescue them?

      >>>Film the conditions and then release the animals that could be released. They aren?t going to release an animal that is incapable of fending for itself.

      Now I am confused..? I thought they discover humans, not animal, test subjects.

      >> >must escape a test facility while eluding murderous security after discover human test subject not animals.

      Again, what about the human test subjects?? To not try to save them (as well as themselves) is morally repugnant; that won’t endear the audience to the main characters. On the contrary.

      In “Aliens”, Ripley’s? fights to not only to save herself and the crew but the sole surviving colonist, the child Newt.? The risks she’s willing to take for the sake of the child amp up the audience’s emotional investment in the outcome.? The bonding relationship that develops between Ripley and Newt is the emotional core of the film.

      I don’t think the logline is quite right, but I love the concept. I could see that being a solid low-budget creature feature.

       

      Perhaps:

      When environmental activists raid a chemical testing lab to free the imprisoned animals, they find something far worse locked in the cages.
