VEMPO
WWII Historical Drama Feature Film.
Script available.

By Pam Theodotou

The true story of Helen "Eleni" Valiatzas (The author's mother). 

 

In Nazi-occupied Greece, teenage American-born Eleni Valiatzas becomes a triple agent, navigating a treacherous world of deception as she secretly works for the OSS, British intelligence, and the Greek resistance. Learning Greek by listening to the songs of patriotic singer Sophia Vempo and learning German just before the war, she is forced to serve as a translator for the Nazis by the SS officer living in her home in order to protect her family.  With music as her guide, language as her weapon, and courage as her only armor, she gathers intelligence to aid elite Greek American troops dropped behind enemy lines while outmaneuvering the enemy before her cover is blown in this untold true story of sacrifice, survival, and defiance.

A fresh perspective on WWII, Vempo brings to life the unsung heroism of Greek American operatives and the fearless women who fought in the shadows. With the tension of Inglourious Basterds, the heart of Atonement, and the real-life espionage stakes of The Imitation Game, this is a history yet to be told—a gripping war thriller anchored by one extraordinary young woman’s bravery.

WWII/ MODERN DAY SPY THRILLER TRILOGY
Novel Manuscripts available. 

Based on the short film "Stark Justice" by Pam Theodotou

Cursed with immortality after a secret WWII experiment gone wrong, a battle-weary assassin relentlessly hunts the one thing he craves most: his own death. A gritty, high-stakes thriller blending espionage and the supernatural, Die Glocke ("The Bell" in German)  follows a haunted assassin who has spent decades searching for a way to end his endless existence. But when his quest leads him to an enigmatic CIA scientist—an ex-Nazi whose mind holds the key to both immortality and its undoing—he is thrust into a deadly game of secrets, betrayals, and shadow wars that span continents and decades.

As the assassin and the scientist unravel the mysteries of their cursed existence, they find themselves hunted by global intelligence agencies, rogue black ops teams, and an underground cabal that seeks to harness their unnatural longevity. But the closer they get to the truth, the more the assassin must ask himself: does he truly want to die, or has he been running from something far worse?

With the brutal action of Reacher , the dark intrigue of Atomic Blonde and Red Sparrow, DIE GLOCKE is a relentless, character-driven thriller where a deadly futuristic weapon is the prize.

PANDORA (& The Sequel THE CHASE)
Gothic Horror novels (Manuscripts available)
TV Series script in development.

Based on the Cinemagraphic Novel by Pam Theodotou

What if Frankenstein wasn’t just a novel, but a cipher for a hidden history? Pandora is a gripping historical thriller that re-imagines Mary Shelley’s creation not as a work of fiction, but as an unlikely autobiography, the veiled account of a dark conspiracy that shaped the modern world. Entangled in a web of secret societies and forbidden science, Mary Shelley finds herself a pawn in a shadow war between the Masonic Brotherhood and the Illuminati. Manipulated by the enigmatic American scientist Ben Franklin—whose secret to immortality has made them both targets—she finds that her novel Frankenstein is more than a fiction; it is a warning, a confession, and the key to a terrifying truth that the most powerful men in the world will kill to protect. With the gothic intrigue of Penny Dreadful and The Terror, Pandora is an electrifying re-imagining of one of literature’s greatest minds and the secret war that may have birthed her most infamous creation.

VALON
Supernatural Feature Film/ TV Series
By Pam Theodotou

After 4,000 years entombed, Thera Valon, a forgotten priestess of ancient Egypt, awakens inside a Saudi billionaire’s high-security private collection—her sarcophagus sealed behind bulletproof glass. With no memory of her death but a deep, mystical connection to forces beyond time, she escapes into the modern world, unraveling a web of prophecy that ties her fate to the resurrection of long-dormant gods. But as she rediscovers her purpose, so too do the terrifying deities of Egypt, who have been waiting for their chance to reclaim the world.


A mix of The Mummy (1999) meets American Gods with a sleek, supernatural thriller edge. Think John Wick meets Indiana Jones, but with ancient deities, high-tech intrigue, and a heroine caught between history and destiny.

WEREWOLVES OF LONDON
Supernatural Feature Film/TV Series
By Pam Theodotou

When an ancient British order of werewolf hunters tracks a deadly new "were-creature" to the quiet town of London, Ohio, they expect a routine extermination. Instead, they uncover a hidden clan of werewolves who have lived among Midwestern society since the Revolutionary War—an American bloodline older and more dangerous than anything the hunters have faced before. As alliances blur and old codes are challenged, the Order must decide: eradicate the werewolves or uncover the darker force that threatens them all.


A blend of The Witcher and True Detective, with Gothic horror aesthetics wrapped in Americana. The story thrives on tension between old-world monster hunting traditions and the deep-rooted, secretive supernatural culture of the American heartland. Gritty action, folklore, and a touch of political intrigue drive a slow-burn, suspenseful horror-thriller.

DEAD STOP
Supernatural Feature Film/TV Series
By Pam Theodotou

When an unsuspecting apocalyptic fog rolls in and world seems to be coming to an end a ragtag group of survivors finds themselves trapped at a lonely truck stop in rural Ohio, surrounded by hordes of the undead. Just as all hope seems lost, salvation arrives in the unlikeliest form—an undead biker gang, Hell’s Angels risen from the grave, riding out of damnation for one last shot at redemption. But can the living trust the dead? And what price will they have to pay for their salvation?

A mix of Mad Max meets Dawn of the Dead, with a healthy dose of grindhouse flair. Fast bikes, brutal action, and a darkly humorous twist on the zombie genre. Think Tarantino meets Sam Raimi, with a soundtrack full of classic rock and the roar of undead engines.
