Hi Carmen, I like your concept a lot. Might I suggest tightening this logline a bit:
Ripley, a troubled former Special Forces soldier turned Chief of Police, is on the trail of a serial killer butchering altar boys, but soon discovers a demonic force has invaded her very own home.
Hopefully that helps :-)
James Welday - Thank you! I am just seeing this as I update my work. Loglines are always been my least favorite thing to write. I appreciate the help.
No worries, happy to help! They're not my favorite thing either.
