THE FURNACE
Comic Thriller Winner of the Hollywood Gateway Screenplay Contest Grand Prize. Bitter and haunted, Vietnam Vet, Clay Bodie, has banished himself deep into the vast sizzling wasteland of the Nevada desert. Into this comes Lilly, desperate for help. She’s got a multi-million dollar winning lottery ticket and two killers on her trail. Shooting down into Clay’s ramshackle homestead: the killers trap Clay and Lilly, and make swiss cheese of the water tank, truck, and generator. Then they sit back with their Pelegrino waters and sun umbrellas and wait for the desert to do the killing for them. It’s only a matter of time before Clay and Lilly will be, literally, toast. Will Clay be coward he’s always been, or will he rise above his shameful past and turn the desert he knows so well into a weapon to save them both? |
