The history of Trap Door Escape Room started with a screenplay.  Anthony Purzycki needed help rewriting his feature film script, “Ratred: The Following.” He brought it to independent film studio Harrington Talents. As it turns out, they happened to be completing a film with a young, dynamic Production Assistant. This PA had just come out of film school for screenwriting, and they thought it would make a great fit.

Such a great fit, in fact, that after I rewrote “Ratred” we started collaborating on other film scripts, writing the horror stories “Theatre of the Devil” and “Cliff’s End” within the next few years.  Then came the tedious task of trying to get the movies made.

Over the next few years we faced con-artists, rewrites, actor demands, California meetings, and a collapse of the independent film market, yet produced no films, despite tireless efforts.
