Michael Allen
Mysteria is a noir feature, which has just completed shooting. The film is part crime thriller and part underdog versus the bottle. The film stars Robert Miano (Giallo), Danny Glover (Saw, 2012), Billy Zane (Titanic), Martin Landau (Ed Wood), Meadow Williams (Apollo 13) and Michael Rooker (Jumper). Have a read of a fairly robust synopsis and cast list until the film provides a trailer for this feature.
The synopsis for Mysteria here:
"As a screenwriter, Aleister's best days are behind him. But as a drunk, he appears to have a glorious future. He’s behind on his rent, he’s spent up an entire studio advance, mostly on booze, and he can’t come up with the inspiration for his latest assignment. Then one day LAVINIA calls him. She’s a film student at UCLA, and she would be sohonored to meet him. Sure, he says, and they set something up.
Aleister finds himself embarrassed, unable to pay the bill, so Lavinia covers. They hit it off…mildly, and decide to meet the next day. If nothing else, Lavinia helps Aleister’s ego, with her steady stream of compliments. He returns home to find that the landlord’s changed the locks. Nothing else to do, he trudges to his favorite bar, where he’s built up quite a tab.
Continues...
The bar is empty, the liquor put away for the night – except for a bottle of Scotch, which seems to be waiting for him at a corner table. He has a seat, takes a drink, and gets good and drunk. That’s when she appears, the Fairy Woman. She’s beautiful, Aleister stares in awe. She promises him everything’s going to be okay. She’ll pay his rent. She’ll inspire him to finish his script.
He wakes up, the Fairy Woman’s gone. The bartender chases him out, and Aleister returns home. His landlord informs him that rent’s been paid. Lavinia shows up for their meeting just as the cops arrive. The daughter of a prominent senator has been murdered, and Aleister was the last person to talk to her. Aleister finds himself pulled into the investigation, and soon he’s the number one suspect. On the bright side, it cures his writers block.
He pounds away at the script, includes everything that’s happened to him in the last few days, and other new details. Details that, strangely, begin to come true, like a scene where Senator Mitchell offers Aleister money in exchange for the script. Aleister can’t give up the script, it’s the only leverage he has in the case against him. And as the cops put the heat on him, Aleister must come up with an ending to the script,or risk being locked away forever" (Matt Ilczuk).
