This was my dream last night and think it might make a cool movie\series concept.
The opening scene is seemly unassuming dressed person goes into a gas station and puts a serum into the coffee and squishy stations.
The person then repeated this at another gas station and another
The serum is a time released formula that makes a person go crazily violent 8 hour after consumption.
The premise would be at the start of the episode you see security camera angles of people coming in and getting coffee and or other fountain drinks. Each gas station is in a different neighborhood so the people getting drinks would be clustered around certain demographics or backgrounds. An episode would be able to the impact of the people going to that specific gas station.
Their is an element of timely ness to the story. The person who has tainted all of these wells tips the police off to the plan that the whole of the city is about to collapse as the effects of the medicine take hold. They have 2 hours to find the people before the people go mad.
Tainted people subplots
Some of the people are kids
Some of the people are on pass throughs
Some of the people are executives
Some are Soccer moms
Some are all ready killers
Some are the first responders responding to this call, police, paramedics
The violence's is different for the different people, some are suicide, some are crazy killing, some turn inwards in an petrified state.
Some people are caught in time before any event happens, some are not.
Sub story lines of race, how violence is perceived in different neighborhoods, the impact of violence of the community socio economic issues, how people with draw in times of danger, how people step up in times of need.
The city is getting ripped apart can the stop it in time?
