“His obsession was to create the ultimate horror story… his curse was to live it.”

Steven Lessey (Stephen Young), a screenwriter, can no longer tell the horror stories he writes from the life happening around him. Mario Azzopardi follows him as his wife Elizabeth (Sharon Masters) pulls away, his children stop respecting him, and the critics turn on his work. A deadline is coming, and Steven means to meet it whatever it takes from him.
