MURDER BY ECSTASY
by Debora Hill & Sandra Brandenburg
TONE:
Amateur detective story, set in San Francisco, present day.
Similar in style to the ANNA LEE movies, but with a technical
look close to that of the still-popular `THIN MAN' series.
New Wave music - a sharp contrast between the detectives (`bright
young things') and the DRUG-WORLD reality of the ghb
users.
SET-UP:
ghb (gamma hydroxy-buterate) exists in a nether world of neither
legal nor illegal, and is expensive to make.
A certain DRUG LAB has been mixing cheaper ingredients
with their ghb, which tends to make the user violent.
Two female documentary film makers, a video producer and an
art gallery owner become involved in the club scene and, hence,
the murders.
The real murderer is the person behind the drug labs, not those
who commit the actual violence.
STORY LINE:
Our four detectives ferret out clues and pursue the owner of
the drug lab through the streets and clubs of San Francisco,
over a period of several weeks. They track him to a warehouse,
and try to capture him, with the aid of a young police officer.
He plunges to his death from the roof of the warehouse.
