Fools Gold: The Legend of Pickaxe Phil (horror): A group of college students stop at an old gold mining town and hear the legend of a ghost that haunts the mines.

As they enter the mine past a sign that reads, “Stay Out – Stay Alive”; they quickly learn the ghost of Pickaxe Phil is real…and he plans on keeping his gold.

 
 
  Screenplay written by Brandt McGuire: Fools Gold: The Legend of Pickaxe Phil (horror, full feature) a homage to 80’s horror in the style of Friday The 13th and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre with a modern appeal has been submitted to several film festivals. Keep checking our web site for updates.

Synopsis: In the 1940’s the town of Bodie California was the most prosperous gold mining town in the country, but after a horrible mining collapse caused by the miner known as Pickaxe Phil, the town becomes a desolate desert town. Now, a group of college students stop at the living historical California gold mining town to research its history for a school report on their way to Las Vegas for spring break. Some of them go for the extra credit and others go for the myth of the gold that may still sit untouched under the town. The townsfolk talk about small town living, mining in the 1940’s, and the legend of Pickaxe Phil, whose ghost now walks the mines and kills anyone that enters. The headstrong students decide to investigate the mines themselves, despite the warnings. After they enter the mine, past a sign that reads “Stay Out – Stay Alive”, the students quickly learn the ghost of Pickaxe Phil is real…and he plans on keeping his gold.
