Dee Snider's StrangeLand

Based on the screenplay to the terrifying 1998 horror film StrangeLand. The Internet was supposed to connect people. For Captain Howdy, it's the perfect hunting ground. Behind the screen waits a sadist who lures teenagers into his world of ritual piercing, body suspension, and unrelenting torment. To him, pain is truth. Flesh is canvas. And his victims are masterpieces. When Detective Mike Gage's daughter disappears, the hunt leads the police into a nightmare of needles, hooks, and cages. A carnival of body modification ruled by a madman who believes he's a prophet. But Howdy isn't just another predator; he's a believer, and his gospel is written in pain. StrangeLand drags you screaming through the shadows of suburbia into a world where torture is transcendence, horror wears a human face, and salvation may come too late. Welcome to Captain Howdy's playground. Once you enter, you don't come back the same.
