In Hollywood there’s a meme known as “high concept”, the idea being that you can explain all there is to know about a movie in just a few words, ideally relating to another movie. So, for instance, you might describe a movie you’re looking to get a greenlight for as “Die Hard on a chicken farm” or “Fatal Attraction in a high school”.
So here’s my high concept: “Vampire hackers”.
That’s all you gotta know. You can write the movie in your head just from that.
Is that not awesome or what?!
