Written By: Salvatore A. Bono
“The Five-Day Crucifixion” is a supernatural drama about John Santo’s “life and death” struggle with Satan that casts doubt on his faith in God. John’s resolve continues to waver when he is tempted by the love of a beautiful woman only to find out that his surroundings are not what they appear to be. In a battlefield of lies, deceit, and violence, Satan’s persuasive power to seduce John’s soul is galvanized when John’s daughter is thrust in the middle of their spiritual war. “Follow me John, and renounce God or your daughter will die” is Satan’s ultimatum. With his child’s life and his soul on the line, John must either use the power at his disposal to defeat Satan or surrender his soul to evil in exchange for saving his daughter’s life.
Originally from Boston, Massachusetts, Salvatore Bono began his writing career in 2008. After completing the manuscript for the novel, “The Five-Day Crucifixion,” his interest in screenwriting was piqued when several colleagues encouraged him to adapt the manuscript into a full-feature screenplay. In late 2011, he saw an opportunity to circulate his work by starting The Sky’s The Limit Productions, LLC. In June 2012, he continued to develop his project by producing a five minute “teaser,” and released it on the Internet. Currently living in Chandler, Arizona, he also works as a Project Manager in the field of Satellite Communications.
