Agents Bryan and Lee investigate the disappearance of a young girl, Jasmine. With the help of James, they gain access to her home but find themselves trapped with an alien creature which absorbs James. However, they are aided by Thacker, Jasmine's father, who has held the alien captive to lead him to his daughter. But when a saucer arrives, the trio are beamed aboard where they discover Jasmine and other members of the family being harvested to cure an alien disease. Rescuing her, they attempt escape, but only Jasmine and Lee make it home. Unknown to Lee, Jasmine is carrying a mutagen which infects humans, paving the way for an alien invasion.
Get to know the writer:
What is your screenplay about?
Absent is about two regular Joes working at a charter school. They help at risk students stay in school and progress toward graduation(my actual job). While training the new guy on home visits, they investigate the chronic absences of one particular student. Everything goes awry when they accidentally discover that the student was abducted by aliens, and the Father has an alien in his basement. Bait, to be used in an even trade. His daughter for the alien captive. During the trade, they all end up getting sucked into a spacecraft where they have to fight to make it back home where it's safe, or so they think.
What genres does your screenplay fall under?
Horror/Sci Fi
Why should this screenplay be made into a movie?
This should be made into a movie because of its originality and right now alien stories are prevalent. This movie would do well. It has a wide target audience as well.
