Tenderloin (Original Working Title: "Lothario"), a feature-length screenplay

Based on the real-life "Pick-Up Artist" and "Men's Rights Activist" subcultures, Tenderloin is a dark, comedo/dramatic exploration of male anger, and latent misogyny in contemporary American culture. Craig Schevel, a divorced father and a self-styled seduction guru, is forced to face the dark underbelly of his trade when he takes on a new protégé; Andrew. The young son of a wealthy political family, Andrew's sociopathy and dangerously relentless ambition take Craig into dark new territory, forcing Craig to wrestle for control of his empire, as Andrew recruits an ever-expanding clique of devoted, angry young men.
