SYNOPSIS:

NEW: Dunkleosteus

Kevin David Mac Pharlan, an intelligent hillbilly from Kentucky whom makes a living as a professional fisherman, heads to a fishing community in the Solomons of Chesapeake Bay on the Patuxent River. Kevin unwillingly ends up as to part of a task force to hunt down an extremely large fish that has taken the life of a prominent lawyer. Kevin obtains a side kick by the name of Richard Schriver, meets a lovely female deputy Dakota Shapiro and goes head to head with her thrasonical fiancé Doyle Steiber. Kevin soon figures out what is in the waters of the fishing community, a prehistoric fish called Dunklosteus that supposedly was extinct. Of course this is no ordinary fish, having three inch armor plating over its frontal portion and a bite pressure of 1,800 pounds per square inch, same as the Dinosaur Tyrannosaurus Rex and a length of 40 feet. Where the action and adventure begins is when a Paleontologist enters the picture, yet only to be swallowed up by the gigantic fish. Kevin soon takes things into his own hands and goes after Dunkleosteus alone, only to end up in the hospital. Eventually Kevin, his side kick reporter Riichard, the brother of the first victim Charlie and Kevin’s lifelong friend Driscoll end up going after the fish and eventually beach it. Kevin then becomes the community's hero and soon hero returns home back in Kentucky with Dakota by his side. All is well it seems, yet back on the Patuxent River, an extremely large gigantic Dunkleosteus and its' offspring appear atop the waters.

Had to rewrite screenplay, much too long. Almost done now with much better story and 120 pages instead of 150.
