Progressing forward. New characters emerging. Provisionally set to be a face-off between various archetypes. Fits somewhere between Mystery/Fantasy/Thriller. A 3-in-1 projection. Think 'Santa Clarita Diet' meets 'Succession'.

Summary

The teaser for a show I focused on writing for a number of years- EDEN: the story of the rise and fall of a nameless vigilante. A serious re-imagining of the tropes that so make up the stories of heroes who decide to choose violence. Tropes are utilized, twisted and broken, cliches are acknowledged, subverted and snapped. Overall, we are reminded of the triumphs and costs of chasing after something that destroys you.

Summary

Johnny Pepys (peeps, after Samuel Pepys, the famous English diarist), an underling in the Capone gang, is summoned to take dictation of Capone's memoirs after Capone has been wounded in a gunfight with the Feds. Members of Capone's gang are worried those memoirs (diary) could fall into the wrong hands, and they put the heat on Pepys. Meantime, Pepys is playing both ends, selling secrets to a rival gang. Elliot Ness (The Untouchables) sends a sultry undercover policewoman to Pepys in hopes of using her charms to seduce him into revealing the whereabouts of the diary. A cute satire on The Untouchables. (This was staged twice in Manhattan, once at the Kraine Theater and again in midtown in conjunction with the New York Independent International Film Festival.)

Raffles: Configuration Of Nine (Script)

Summary

Raffles was a 1977 television adaptation of the A. J. Raffles stories by Ernest William Hornung. The series was produced by Yorkshire Television (now “ITV”) and written by Philip Mackie. The episodes were largely faithful adaptations of the stories in the books, though occasionally two stories would be merged to create one episode such as "The Gold Cup" which featured elements from both "A Jubilee Present" and "The Criminologist's Club". In the original television pilot episode, Raffles is invited to play cricket for a lord's son's cricket team at Milchester Abbey. Raffles conspires to use the invitation as an opportunity to bring Bunny along and burgle the house. Their plans are complicated, however, when Raffles and Bunny learn that an undercover Scotland Yard detective is hunting for burglars at Milchester. The episode is adapted from the short stories "Gentlemen and Players" and "The Return Match". In this “Raffles: Configuration Of Nine” Pilot episode, created and written by Marcus De Storm, it is the light (back story) telling of A. J. Raffles, and his unknown demise that set’s the continuation of Raffles’ Grandson, Tristan, who has become an employee of the much fabled “Syndicate”. Much is the hope that by filling in the past by way of putting a mystery before the viewer, that which was never seen by the end of the original series, will honor and pay tribute to one of the best “Crime Drama” series of the mid-to-late 1970’s. With more than four further “Episode Scripts” in progress, the creator/writer assures any Production Company, that a Full Series can be delivered within an official schedule. The complete series has been released on DVD.
