I'm currently brewing up a story about a secret organization headed by the church that trains young adults world wide to fight off demons in the area of the world that they live in. Why young adults you ask? Well in my story, evil preys on the young mostly when they choose to possess a body.
The young are the future of tommorow so this is how they plan to rule tommorow. But since adults can't be everywhere their children are, the teens are trained to be able to "sense" when a demon is lurking by and when they do they can initiate a "stand-still" (A special maneuvor capable of freezing time in certain radius for a limited ammount of time.) I kinda wanted to incoporate the "stand-still" move into my story because in my story it kinda explains the strange phenom that is when an entire room gets quiet all of a sudden. (Like seriously...it has happened to me. A room of a dozen people. Talking...talking...talking...SILENCE. Everyone. Then we start again. Creepy.)
My main inspirations for this would be constantine and Van Helsing. Of course I have a much different (and much deeper) storyline but there's more action than anything in this story where the cast is mostly young adults (appeals to the young crowd), it has a religious base (appeals to the religious), and my Sci-Fi twist in it should appeal to everyone.
Sorry for long explanation but I truly thought it was necessary.
Questions...
1. How do you think people would respond to seeing a film like this?
2. Would it be appropriate to mix sci-fi with religion; are there any other films that have done this?
3. Would you be interested in a story like this?
4. Oh yeah...What would you title a story like this?
