SYNOPSIS

Genre: Horror / Comedy

Tagline: Slashing everything in store!

Logline:

A hardware store employee’s first night on the job is disrupted by the discovery of a dead body and a duffel bag full of cash.

Short Synopsis:

The discovery of a dead body and a duffel bag full of cash in a hardware store on Christmas Eve drives a crew of screwball employees to the point of mental breakdown and murder. Dave’s first night on the job is hilariously turned upside down as his co- workers drop like flies around him and the shady staff schemes for easy money. But who done it? Who’s the killer? Everyone is suspect and only time will tell in this every man for himself horror/comedy mystery who-dunnit.

Long Synopsis:

It’s Christmas Eve and Dave’s first night of work at Mr. Beaver’s Hardware Store, where Mr. Kipper, the neurotic manager, drives a crew of screwball employees to the point of mental breakdown and, in this case, murder.

On a holiday night of closing-time shenanigans, all is well until a dead body and a duffel bag full of cash are discovered on Aisle 12. Now it’s dilemma time with do-gooders versus deviants and virtue versus vice. Should they call the cops and do the right thing? Or should they keep the cash and pocket the loot?

The vote is split until Jack, the inept and disgruntled assistant manager, accidentally shoots Otto with a crossbow, mortally wounding him and setting off a chain reaction of mayhem and murder, leaving the staff scheming for easy money and Jack steaming from acid burns.

Dave’s world turns upside down as his co-workers drop like flies around him. Should he plot for a quick payday and try to get the money? Or should he just try to get out with his life? Or, even worse, will Jack hunt them down and kill them all one by one in his twisted lust for revenge? The race is on and time will tell in this every man for himself free-for-all of blood, boobs, and bad decisions.

Massacre on Aisle 12. Slashing everything in store!

DIRECTOR’S VIEW

Jim Klock

DIRECTOR / PRODUCER

I believe that great filmmaking begins with a passion for great story telling. It starts with the writing and developing of strong scripts; while creating interesting and original characters. Bringing this all to life on screen, surrounded by a great team of people who also believe in that vision, is what I love most about filmmaking. Every time we make a film we are chasing dreams. How blessed are we who get to do it. – Jim Klock

“Your dream was given to you. If someone else can’t see it for you, that’s fine. It was given to you and not them. It’s your dream. Hold it. Nourish it. Cultivate it!”

Les Brown – Motivational Speaker
