How about “a conspiracy-thirsty journalist sets out to discover (something) about a (town) and ends up (something).”? Maybe play with it a bit. The current loglines (for me) tell me everything I need to know about the movie without seeing it. I hope this helps. And I’d definitely go with “City Lost” as a killer title for where I think you go with this. Well wishes and thanks for sharing!

  1. Definitely more scare factor. Danger more organic. Feel the dread for protagonist. Thinking about title. Ghosts seems ambiguous since no ghosts in story albeit ghostlike can mean quiet/dead but here it misleads cos story is about body harvesters and robots. Also lost hints at some ancient city, it’s hellish but not really lost. I would call it Recycle City or Hell City or something longer and pulpy like Androids and Harvesters V City Journalist.
