Lads and Ladies,
Recently, we began a project that we wanted to share with the world. We discovered a script that literally blew our minds and we were automatically thrust into optioning the script for production. I hope you will join us on this insane journey to make our second feature film - The Suicide Theory.
ONE LINE: A suicidal man hires a demented killer to assist him in suicide, but for some reason, miraculously survives each attempt on his life.
SYNOPSIS: STEVEN RAY was never quite normal. But when the love of his life ANNIE is killed in a hit-and-run incident at a city cross walk, his violent and bizarre behavior becomes uncontrollable. One night, as Steven plots his next murder, a body drops from the sky and lands on his cab.
Enter PERCIVAL, who’s unsuccessful attempt at jumping off a building not only interferes with Steven’s plans, but the chance encounter also introduces the two into each other’s sad and lonely lives. Percival believes he’s cursed after miraculously surviving each suicide attempt and concludes fate brought he and Steven together. So, he hires Steven to assist him in suicide. Steven does not believe in fate and thinks Percival is desperate and delusional. But he accepts the offer. Easy money.
After Percival continues to miraculously survive each attempt on his life, Steven starts to believe. He tries to help Percival figure out ways to break the curse. And in the process, they form an unlikely friendship through the common bond of tragedy.
As we make this film, I will be updating things on here as much as I can. Hopefully I can learn as much from you as our experiences give you an even greater understanding of the film making process.
We have created a Facebook fanpage where you can keep up with the progress of the film as well: https://www.facebook.com/TheSuicideTheoryFilm

Progressing forwards every day and gaining ground to make this film. The shooting part will be the easy bit! Although from what we learned during our last film, we are so much more prepared for this one. We were going in blind with our last feature and it turned out ok...just sold to the US and a few other territories. Not for millions or anything, but for our first film it's a pretty amazing feat. So we are taking our successes, and more importantly the lessons of our failures from the last film and making sure we make this one even more successful. Although we will be targetting this one at festivals rather than straight up sales...
