BURY THE ASHES
An elevated HORROR/THRILLER, in the vein of CONTAGION, meets CASTAWAY, artfully written in a non-linear style similar to MEMENTO
LOGLINE: A horrible series of events turn a secluded island paradise into a nightmare, as a happy couple confronts a mysterious affliction and a castaway desperately searches for help.
SUMMARY: Veteran CIA agent FRED PIKE and his wife PAM have been married a long time, but his job separated them over the years.
