Kenny Golde's KILLER Spec Script Picked up by Hyde Park

Hyde Park Entertainment and Parkes/MacDonald Prods. have picked up the spec script Killer, from writer director Kenny Golde (The Job, Uncross the Stars.)

Killer centers on a rogue police investigator who discovers a video left by a killer, triggering a cat-and-mouse game, with the investigator several steps behind his prey.

Hyde Park topper Ashok Amritraj and exec veep Patrick Aiello and Parkes/MacDonald's Walter Parkes and Laurie MacDonald will produce.  The two banners will launch development on Killer with funding from Abu Dhabi's Imagenation through their pact which provides a $10 million revolving financing fund.

Golde is also a published author, penning The Do It Yourself Bailout, which described how he reduced $212,000 in credit card debt to only $30,000 in six months by negotiating directly with credit card companies.

The premise for Killer sounds pretty familiar in every sense, so I'm hoping they're just holding out on the elements that set this apart from every other cat-and-mouse game. But with a title like Killer... is there much to hope for? You might as well call is Cop vs. Killer at that point.
