Synopsis/Details
FALLOUT is a single location horror-thriller with a total of only two characters, both female, that is packed with suspense and intrigue. It has a smart and unique twist that focuses on psychological torment vs. gore, and has been a finalist in multiple screenwriting competitions and received positive coverage.
The hook is that each character has information the other needs in order to solve puzzles and riddles required to escape, yet only one exit door can be opened. This pits the characters against one another despite them needing to work together to survive.
