In the hostile and remote Appalachian wilderness, an adrenalin junkie leads a group of friends on a punishing mountain bike trek. But when they stumble on a gang of militia extremists, they find themselves on a race for their very lives.

I like the story recast with women even better.

REVISED: When a daredevil mountain biker accidentally leads her friends into the stronghold of militia extremists, their carefree wilderness trek becomes a deadly race for life.

Hi all, thanks for your comments, yes I certainly had "deliverance on mountain bikes' when i thought of the project. I've decided to change the lead character to female, (of a mixed group) and have followed some of DPG's suggestions so will post a new tight 25 word logline below:

dpg, funny thing is, when I first read the logline I couldn't shake the "Squeeeel like a pig" line out of my head. However the dirt bike angle gives it a nice twist.

btw great logline examples.

Great play from dpg with the paint ball angle...

For reducing the word count, a good place to start is setting -- you should not have to be too specific about this unless the logline makes no sense without it -- films set in the past, future, or on a different world would probably need the setting specified... as in, if they are on a 'mountain bike trek' we can assume it's probably not happening in the suburbs or city...

Anyway -- best of luck -- pretty solid.

When a daredevil dirt biker accidentally leads his fellow bikers into the wilderness stronghold of militia extremists, a carefree race for an adrenalin high becomes a deadly race for life.

Or, for more irony:

When a daredevil paintball fanatic accidentally leads his team into the wilderness stronghold of militia extremists, a carefree game for an adrenalin high becomes a deadly fight for life.

[Either way, the premise brings to mind the movie "Deliverance".]

What's really great about this concept, it could be made as a micro budget film.

Hi, thanks for your support and help. Reducing the word count helps, thx

I think everything's in the logline, (Except for maybe why the extremists are after them) So now it is just a matter of cutting the word count a bit.

Anyway, I believe your concept is solid, Hope that helped, good luck with this!
