SCREENPLAY: DIVESTING SATAN OF RACIAL MADNESS
DRAMA 118 PAGES
LOGLINE: The racial climate in America looms tolerable, that is, until a wealthy white man fatally shoots a black man, who secretly shares an apartment with the wealthy man’s collegiate daughter. Subsequently, the depraved gunman learns that the victim is the same black man he previously assaulted for chatting with a white female.
SYNOPSIS: Satan’s chief deputy, CYRUS LEGREE and his wife SARAH, pays a surprise visit to their collegiate daughter SUSAN on a Connecticut college campus. However, the LEGREES joyous expectation is quickly shattered; they learn SUSAN has moved off campus into an apartment. The LEGREES now loom in a state of acute confusion. They embrace and share each other pain. The jittery LEGREES now armed with SUSAN’S address dash swiftly over to her apartment.
After landing on the porch of SUSAN’S resident and ringing the doorbell, the LEGREES become further agitated as a tall black man, Bob Jordan finally opens the door. It seems as if time lingers in suspended animation as the diverse strangers examine each other with profound skepticism. After announcing that he’s seeking his daughter, SUSAN, a nervous BOB escorts the LEGREES down a darkened hallway and into a dimly lit bedroom, where the disgusted parents encounter their nude daughter, lying in bed.
As a stunned SUSAN attempts to explain that BOB is her lover and they are contemplating marriage, the tragic news is too traumatic for the LEGREES to digest. LEGREE, an avowed racist, hastily yanks out a revolver and fires several shots into BOB’S body, killing him instantly, as SUSAN and her mother unleash piercing screams.
Soon after Satan’s deputy, LEGREE, is arrested, a horrendous race war ensues, which is so uncontrollable that several peace commissioners are sent from heaven to combat Satan himself. Among the commissioners dispatched to Earth are JOHN F. KENNEDY, MARTIN LUTHER KING JR., ELEANOR ROOSEVELT and HARRIET BEECHER STOWE.
This is a challenging script written to be produced on a low budget.
