KATALYNA: (one page synopsis)
For a screenplay based on the comic book
Created and Written By:
Gary Petras
She prowls the night insearch of innocent victims. Her blood lust is
insatiable. Her hunger and thist are unquenchable. No one is safe, no one can
escape the hynotic glance, the evil countenance and the seductive ways of the
vampire: Katalyna. With long, flowing ebony hair and a body and face of a pure
Goddess. She dresses in skin-tight, black leather and very revealing, very sexy
costume. She stalks the shadowy streets insearch of her prey. She seeks to possess,she seeks to feed and she seeks to play. The silky night and all its leathery trappings is her world. And the world is her hunting ground.
Her reign of bloody terror seems unstoppable but there is one who seeks the
Vampire-woman's total destruction. The Vampire-hunter: Lavender Lace. Tall,
statuesque, short blond hair and very beautiful and deadly. Her weapons of choice
are two, modified, 45 automatic revolvers with the symbol of the cross etched into
the tips of the bullets and the bullet casings are filled with Holy Water. She, too,
stalks the shadowy night seeking the Vampire-woman. It is her single-minded
determination and relentless spirit that propels her in her pursuit of Katalyna.
There is one more overpowering reason behind her mission of total destruction.
Lavender Lace is Katalyna's own daughter. And the daughter will not rest until
she has accomplished her mission: To destroy her own mother.
The battles between mother and daughter. Where, in
this instance, a mother's bite is far worse than her bark. And a daughter's love is
very, very deadly.
Blood lust and a hunter's zeal for justice overshadows everything in the lives of
these two beautiful and dangerous women. A dark, erotic and atmospheric tale
about a mother's lust for blood and a daughter's quest for
vengeance. Lavender Lace stakes out a graveyard she
believes to be one of her mother's (Katalyna's) secret lairs. She watches and
waits to trap her and finally bring about the female vampire's destruction. But
from a safe distance Katalyna herself watches and begins to command her evil
minions to pursue and destroy her own daughter. Vampire bats attack - Zombies
(Living dead) attack - a she-wolf ( female werewolf) attacks. Lavender Lace
survives all the deadly attempts on her life. Vowing once again to end the evil
reign of her vampire mother. Katalyna escapes but she, too, vows to corrupt her
own daughter or kill her in the process. Both survive to fight another night.
As the story continues it is Lavender Lace who falls for a
very handsome youngman, a photographer named Christopher Ryan. In his arms
she can forget the trails and tribulations of her life. But their romance is short-lived
as Katalyna seduces the man, making him her slave, and then commands him to
kill her own daughter. Lavender Lace knows all too well that the only way to
break the evil spell is the destruction of her vampire mother. The only other way
to end the evil hold she has on the love of her life is the death of the man himself.
Will he choose to destroy Lavender Lace - can she destroy her mother - or bring
herself to kill the man she loves.
