Crime Thriller Knocked Down to star Grammy-Winning Metal Band

May 13, 2012 - PRLog -- Knocked Down, a Crime Thriller to shoot in Rochester, NY written by Shawn Downey, and co-produced by Lawrence Donini is in talks with an iconic grammy-award winning metal band known for their elaborate masks.

The One 4 All music group’s music label folds.   Desperate for money. They rob a bank. A drug dealer and a corrupt IRS agent race to get their revenge and kill the band before they are arrested.

The key members of the band are: Black, the leader of the band and a pimp, and Sam, an Eminem wannabe with a penchant for wearing alternative hairstyles. Their hangers-on include Evidence, an alcoholic getaway driver and Fast, a street hustler. Just before the band takes off with their hit song 9 Millimeter, Sam leaves the group.

Jim Johnson, a University junior is a naïve twenty-year-old who innocently gets involved with the band as Sam’s replacement. His fatal flaw is falling for the seductive SUMMER. Jim is clearly out-of-his league and doesn’t have a clue that he’s being used by her as a shill for BLACK.

The band disintegrates and falls from grace as a one-hit wonder. Their professional and personal lives mark a rapid descent into Hell, fueled by drugs, alcohol, and a sexy assortment of young groupies. Desperate to make money so that they can continue to support their reckless lifestyle the band devises a daring plan to rob a bank.

This is a story of mayhem, destruction and death that follows when greed and casual disregard for the lives of others seem like a fast-track to the success of our story's "heroes."
