New Vigilante Thriller Channels '80s Suspense and Horror — Now in Early Development
Proof-of-concept videos tease a dark, gritty new indie film project.

April 28, 2025 – [Florida] –
A new independent thriller-horror film is now in early development, promising a suspenseful, action-driven story with strong '80s throwback sensibilities. Centered around a masked vigilante hunting down those responsible for a deadly arson case buried by corruption, the project aims to recapture the raw tension and style of classic retro cinema.

The film combines dark mystery, pulse-pounding horror, and synth-driven atmosphere, paying homage to gritty '80s exploitation thrillers. A proof-of-concept series is now available on YouTube, offering an early look at the tone and world of the story.

Fans of suspense, mystery, and horror can follow the project’s development through the official YouTube channel.

It was written by Christopher M. Long, a thirty-year film veteran who is also set to produce and direct the film and has established the proof-of-concept YouTube channel.
