'''Pitch'''

Basically it's a Hellboy boy scenario from the ground up. Think of it like Stargate. They go in blind and have to figure stuff out along the way, using nothing but guns and a can do attitude. There is no library of books on demons for them to consult. There's no destined blond girl to rely on. Just good old fashioned US Marines. It will be run in a similar vein to Suicide Squad, with a high character turnover.

'''Scene 1'''

20 Marines stand to attention in a gloomy briefing room as a four star general enters the room and takes his place at a small podium in front of them.
