Hi dpg, Richiev and Tony, I think you guys are hitting the issues in my logline right on the spot. Indeed the nanobots are microscopic robots that are injected into the body. The idea of demon possession has crossed my mind – and I think that could work reasonably well.

Just to give you guys an idea of what I’m thinking:

In the future humans inject animals with nanobots as an experiment – the military (yeah cliche I know – I can do better) are looking to see if they can make soldiers invincible. What happens is the animals escape into the wild and just as in Jurassic Park, nature finds its way. The animals breed with other animals and suddenly we have a worldwide infestation of invincible nanobot driven monsters – they’re smart, deadly, evil and virtually indestructible!

So humans build walls around their cities to survive. The mother is the scientist trying to get to the bottom of the “nanobeast” problem. She’s the one who let the experiment out of the cage to see if it would work (irresponsible and overzealous) And as stated, the daughter goes out beyond the wall one day to be taken by one of these beasts as they have a special plan for her (again mother not being responsible for daughter). So mommy needs to go back out and get her daughter back.

I haven’t written a word of this yet – just seemed like a fun idea, part apocalypse movie, part alien monster horror movie. I would say I didn’t communicate anything about the “nanobeasts” in my logline so that’s where the logline failed.
