Synopsis/Details
BEAUTY
A Teen Horror
When young Beauty’s gorgeous face is horribly disfigured in a baseball accident, her small-town, childhood dreams.
Unable to afford cosmetic surgery, Beauty is forced to attend high school with her damaged face. The students torture her, driving Beauty into haunted loneliness. Her kind father, Thomas, promises to pay for plastic surgery, when he can. Her narcissistic mother, Joan, gloats. Finally, she is more beautiful than her daughter.
When Thomas is suddenly killed before Beauty’s eyes in a macabre car accident, Beauty slips into deep depression about her ugly face. Thomas’s life insurance policy allows for Beauty’s plastic surgery, but Joan takes advantage of the situation and negotiates a 2-for-1 deal at a local cosmetic clinic. When hopeful Beauty unwraps her new face, she is repulsed by the image of her permanently scarred skin. Beauty spirals into insanity.
Gruesome murders begin to terrorize the school. The village is paralyzed with fear. Who could be systematically killing the beautiful females? And why?
‘Big city’ Detective Delgado demands the school’s closure. Principal Morrow and Mayor Banks defy him. The school has received Stimulus Funds to restore their baseball complex, hire new Coaches and host the All-League Opening Gala. The show goes on! Delgado smells trouble and sure enough, while Morrow unveils the new trophy case on Opening Day, the entire town witnesses the gory murder of a Natalie, an accomplished student, her pretty face smashed to a pulp.
Meanwhile, psychotic, obsessed and locked in her room, her repressed hatred turns toward Joan. Can Detective Delgado put the messy pieces together and find the bloody murderer before she/he strikes again?
If Beauty must suffer...all the pretty girls will pay.
