Code Black

Feature Film with Series Adaptation - Action, Thriller, Mystery

Screenplay: J Michael Smith

Comic Storywriter: J Michael Smith

Code Black is a genre-bending urban supernatural thriller that collides gritty street-level crime drama with ancient horror. Eddie Jackson, a Wushu-trained narcotics detective, uncovers a terrifying truth behind a new drug sweeping his city: “Lucid” is being used by vampires to sedate and harvest humans. After a brutal ambush leaves him disgraced and imprisoned, Eddie meets “Monster,” a towering, enigmatic inmate who gifts him both freedom and something more—Code Black, a secret weapon serum designed to empower a human warrior with the speed and strength to match a vampire.


Now on the run and recruited into a shadow unit led by Dr. Elizabeth Ashley—a police department psychologist and vampire hunter—Eddie must fight to stop the vampire drug empire led by their seductive and ruthless Queen. The mission is clear: destroy the source, expose the corruption, and kill every last vampire left in the city… before the city falls.
