Twenty years after the horrific slaying of a family, terrified townsfolk wait in fear for the imminent return of the menacing monster that was put away for the crime.
The latest draft of the logline has the same problem as the original post. Who is the main character? Is it the townsfolk leader? What is a townsfolk leader? Is he or she a sherif? A mayer? Etc? A) He is the head of a powerful family in the quaint town. What is his or her flaw? He and the townsfolkRead more
The latest draft of the logline has the same problem as the original post.
Who is the main character? Is it the townsfolk leader? What is a townsfolk leader? Is he or she a sherif? A mayer? Etc?
A) He is the head of a powerful family in the quaint town.
What is his or her flaw? He and the townsfolk witnessed the original slaying and could not stop the monster twenty years ago, who was eventually arrested, though vowed to return to destroy them all.
What is the event that starts him or her off on a journey what is the inciting incident?
B) News about the release of the monster, who is making his way to town. As he approaches he causes destruction to their friends and relatives in neighbouring towns.
News of the monster returning is not a visual or significant enough an event to suffice perhaps make the monster appear in town or better yet kill again.
Other wise the logline is too long and contains too many details that are unrelated to the plot.
Hope this helps.
C) The slow and painful wait as the monster arrives builds on the tension. Further news that he is causing mayhem as he approaches puts them more in fear.
D) The climactic ending is that he does arrive into the town and some of the townsfolk try to stop him whilst others hide in fear. A final shootout occurs.

Why chess?
They actually play a game of chess together.
Is the den his house? Or is it a cave? Is it an abandoned castle? Etc?
It is his house though deep in the Forrest and very dark, hence similitude to den.
What is his ?sadistic game of depravity?? in specific terms?
Through the game of chess the predator makes several subtle attempts to take advantage and overpower her innocence.
In what way will her ?survival instincts makes her a worthy opponent ?? as this would be try to most protagonists in many stories?
She is a bright young girl and becomes aware of what the predator is doing. By keeping a level head and buying time she keeps the game going, try to save herself and also put a stop to him.
What is the girl?s goal? What does ?could put him out of play for good?? mean or look like in specific terms? Will she castrate him? Kill him? Have him arrested? Etc?
Hope this helps.
Eventually have him arrested.

The premise and plot are set as a standard template where the victim outwits the psychopathic captor. Just like we have slasher movies genre all having pretty much the same template however all unique in their own way.
