(Inspired by these types of lists – http://www.viralnova.com/creepiest-things-on-google-maps/

The theme is great in my opinion, the logline needs to be elaborated as the other commenters also mentioned.
on Based on real events. “After a decorated Wehrmacht officer?s family accidentally is sent to a Nazi death camp he must save them before the camp commandant dismantles the camp and kills all the inmates.”

I don't think you should be afraid of the length of the story. I would certainly keep the original story, and do some research on the officer husband, e.g. was he looking for his family, was he doing his own…

Thanks Rutger! FFF - how about you, would you suggest one of the loglines from above or an alternate version for them?

Hi Rutger, I think it is great to see the story in more detail. I would be interested in watching a movie about this event! Why mix the officer and why alternate events? I think it is just a good…

Hi FFF and thanks for your thoughts! At this point I am out of ideas on the nightmare part of the logline, I would welcome any suggestions for a situation where a couple faces sins they committed against each other,…

Maybe something like: Disinherited because of her lack of interest in the family farming business, gamer daughter returns home to save his father's life by winning an online gaming championship?

Hi dpg, got your points! the couple decides for a "normal" counseling retreat service, e.g. http://guidedoc.com/the-8-best-marriage-counseling-retreats-in-the-us . They agree to meet with the service provider at a nice excursion place inside the forest, so they decide to hike there. Their…
