SHOTGUN
By Jessica Bruce

GENRE: Thriller, Action
LOGLINE: Hoping for a peaceful retirement, a former Marine takes to the Alaskan highways as a trucker, but when ruthless gun men target his rig, he must use every ounce of his training to survive a high-octane chase across a frozen mountain.

SYNOPSIS:

In the heart of Alaska, retired Marine Jason finds himself behind the wheel of a semi-truck, navigating the icy roads while delivering a mysterious load. What starts as an ordinary day quickly spirals into a high-octane thriller when he notices a black Buick tailing him, its two occupants clearly up to no good. As they chase him up the treacherous slopes of Denali, it's clear they're intent on stealing whatever he's hauling. Just when things couldn’t get crazier, an old Ford truck joins the pursuit with three more armed men, and another semi slams into Jason’s rig, sending it teetering over the edge of the mountain. With a lifetime of military training kicking in, Jason makes a split-second decision to leap to safety, rolling onto the snowy ground below. What follows is a heart-pounding showdown. Armed with nothing but his Colt Magnum and sheer determination, Jason takes on the attackers in a battle that tests his skills and resolve. With bullets flying and the stakes higher than ever, he fights not just for survival but to thwart a sinister plot that threatens to engulf him. As the dust settles and police helicopters hover overhead, the authorities move in to apprehend the remaining threats. Jason emerges not just as a survivor but as a warrior, taking down four of his assailants in a gripping display of courage and strategy. This isn’t just a story of action and chase; it’s a testament to the indomitable spirit of a man pushed to his limits, reminding us that sometimes, the fiercest battles happen when we least expect them.
