Our Story
Hollywood can be a dark place - a dark place with dark secrets. Mark Mathieson had it all. A child star with a hit TV show who became a multi millionaire before he had reached puberty. It was after he lost his boyish charm that life began to go wrong for the former child star of the successful television series, “The Boy Next Door”. Mathieson is on trial for his life, for the murder of his pregnant girlfriend Rebecca Brennan, the beautiful daughter of a prominent Beverly Hills Cardiologist. Few doubt that Mark Mathieson is capable of committing such a heinous crime. Though proving it in a court of law is far more difficult than it is in the court of public opinion.
Danny Haven was also a child actor, though not nearly as successful as his former costar Mark Mathieson. However, his life is also in peril. Danny is dying of cancer and struck with the sobering reality of leaving behind his wife Hallie, and their young daughter Sammi. Bills are piling up. The fear and guilt are slowly driving Danny and Hallie apart.
After Mathieson is acquitted to a stunned courtroom, a chance meeting of the Haven family and Rebecca’s father, Dr. Brennan occurs, giving Danny an idea on how to provide for his family and give meaning to what little time he has left. Danny offers to kidnap Mathieson, force a taped confession, and then kill him. To avoid prosecution and any evidence leading back to Brennan, Danny plans to take his own life as well. In return the wealthy Dr. Brennan agrees to provide for Hallie and their daughter Sammi.
A suicide mission is underway, where the climactic ending is inevitable bloodshed. As it were in The Dying Hour…
