After the mysterious death of her superstitious father, a skeptical young code-breaker and her ex-boyfriend cop fight to end the Edgar Allan Poe-themed curse threatening to annihilate her hometown.
Great concept and title, Allison Chaney. I think your logline just needs the inciting incident. "After _____________ (the inciting incident/the event that sets the plot in motion), a skeptical young code-breaker and her ex-boyfriend cop fight to end the Edgar Allan Poe-themed curse threatening to annihilate her hometown."
The inciting incident can also be at the end of the logline. Example: “A dysfunctional couple works together to survive against bears after they crash on an abandoned road miles from help.”
Thanks, Maurice. While I do agree with you, my manager told me it was too wordy and to chop it down. :( She still thinks this one is too wordy. She wants me to only have "supernatural" curse. Originally, it said after the mysterious death of her father or something of that nature. I should probably just have two loglines. Thanks for the tip. She's sort of changed my mind on loglines because she's always chopping them down.

You're welcome, Allison Chaney. Ok, I understand. I think "Edgar Allan Poe-themed curse" makes your logline pop more than "supernatural."
