WRITTEN BY: J. M. STELLY
LOGLINE
A crew of outlaws descends on a ghost town after a botched high-stakes heist, only to face a night of unrelenting terror when a mythic evil emerges from the desert, forcing them to confront not just death—but damnation.
SYNOPSIS
Nine professional outlaws converge on a forsaken town along New Mexico’s inter-regional trade route after a heist goes horribly wrong leaving one man in their group wounded and another man their prisoner. But the town is unnervingly silent—abandoned, as if swallowed by some ancient dread. As darkness falls, their fragile alliance shatters when a terrified man crashes into their camp, his neck ravaged by a savage bite. What follows is a horrifying nightmare: hunted by a relentless horde of skin-walkers commanded by a merciless figure known only as The Father, these men must confront not only a deep and dark betrayal but the creeping horror that blurs the line between myth and reality.The Valley of Death is a visceral meditation on survival, the decay of loyalty, and damnation—a brutal descent into a night where every shadow hides a threat, and where salvation demands a sacrifice no one is prepared to make in a place where nothing survives.
