NEVERLAND

NEVERLAND
By Chas Green

GENRE: Thriller / Suspense, Horror
LOGLINE:

In the glittering darkness of LA nightlife, LAPD Captain James Hooke hunts enigmatic club owner Peter, whose famed venue, Neverland, hides a string of supernatural murders—and a secret darker than the crimes themselves.

SYNOPSIS:

NEVERLAND – Film Synopsis

From its chilling opening - a small child deliberately drowned on a windswept shore, the

tone of Neverland is set: dark, violent, and unrelenting. The scene shifts to the glitzy yet

sordid heart of Los Angeles nightlife, where glamour and decay coexist. Nestled

between the neon glare of the city and its gritty urban sprawl lies Neverland, an

infamous and extravagant nightclub owned by the enigmatic and controversial Peter

Pennypacker.

A string of gruesome murders, dubbed the “Lost Boys” case, draws the attention of

LAPD’s relentless one-armed commander, Captain James Hooke. As the hard-boiled

detective delves deeper, it becomes clear that his pursuit of Peter is more than a matter

of law and order; it is personal. Their shared history is scarred by betrayal, loss, and a

twisted family connection that binds them in mutual obsession.

Hooke’s investigation is a deadly game of cat and mouse, complicated by Peter’s most

dangerous secret; his supernatural “shadow,” a merciless wraith that annihilates

anyone threatening its master. Each step closer to the truth brings Hooke face-to-face

with mortal danger, and twice, with death itself.

By the close of the second act Hooke is on the brink of victory, only to have it snatched

away at the last moment. All seems lost until the final act forces both hunter and

hunted into one last, brutal confrontation. Long-buried truths erupt, the stakes climb to

life-or-death, and the lines between justice, vengeance, and survival blur beyond

recognition.

When the gun smoke clears and the blood dries, only one will stand, and in the dark

heart of Neverland, victory may come at a price too high to bear.
