Silent Motive
DirectorLee Philips
“She's a Hollywood screenwriter learning that sometimes... words kill.”
Notorious for writing the most successful - and scandalous - scripts in Hollywood, hit screenwriter Laura Bardell suddenly finds herself implicated in a baffling series of film-industry killings. What's worse, the killer is using the same ingenious methods Laura herself employed in her latest movie about a real-life murder case. To her horror, Laura realizes her script is coming to life - and turning her fictional words into homicidal reality.
