Greek Island
In height of the cold war, in the aftermath of Hiroshima, in the fear of nuclear annihilation, in the heart of West Virginia, the surviving salvation was born. A huge complex designed to house a thousand people, most of which government officials, was code named ‘Project Greek Island’ for secrecy. In 1995, after the walls of communism crumbled, the United States Government revealed this buried treasure. It was nestled in the hills amongst a plush resort. A few years later, the resort decided to make it a tourist attraction and offered tours. Then, a writer with an apocalyptic infatuation, deciding to take his family on a guided tour of the deluxe bomb shelter, finds him and his family at the right place at the right time. While there, an escalating confrontation comes to a climax and nuclear war breaks out.
