Hey Tor,I really like the Luchador vs chupacabra aspect of this logline. My only question; what’s so important about the broken down van that the Luchador must defend it?
Interesting Tor, but I’m split 50/50 with this one, as I do not know what a luchador or a chupcabra actually are. This may a) tempt me to find out – in which case I could be hooked, or b) not want to find out – and look for something else.
A luchador is a Mexican wrestler, they’re known for wearing masks.
A Chupacabra is a Central/North American mythical creature, sort of like a Yeti or Bigfoot.
Interesting character. Interesting antagonist. Potentially interesting situation.
But the “while waiting for a mechanic” is incidental rather than casual. Of all the muchos luchadores in Mexico, why does the chupacabra attack this one? And what is ultimately at stake has to be more than a broken down van — doesn’t it?
For what it’s worth, I’m hooked and would buy a ticket today if I had the chance.
The above points out an interesting issue though – the stakes need to be higher than defending the van. Couldn’t he just run away? What’s IN the van that he’s trying to protect? (FAMILY?)
