DON'T COME BACK sounds fresh and scary, Dwayne Williams.

I suggest adding the story goal to your logline (what the tribesman and survivors do after the ancient bird wakes up). You might have to restructure your logline though (or use two sentences).

Something like: After breaking a sacred law by rescuing people from a plane crash, a ______ tribesman and the survivors fight to survive against an ancient bird whose hypnotic gaze drives humans to madness slaughtering them.

I would use something other than "defiant" since we know he's defiant by breaking the sacred law. Unless he's defiant in general.

Thank you, Maurice Vaughan! I’ve updated the logline to incorporate your feedback, ensuring the story goal is clear and impactful. Let me know if there’s anything else you think it could use to make it even stronger. I truly value your insights!

You're welcome, @Dwayne. I think your logline is solid.

I like the synopsis of your story; it definitely has elements of suspense and horror. I recommend that you always accompany it with videos that represent the story; it's always engaging and revealing.
