The heroes of “The Road to Hell” travel dark and dangerous paths as they confront devilish and powerful villains. The journeys are by land, by sea, and in one case, perhaps only in the mind.

In “El Valiente en el Infierno,” (The Brave One in Hell), a 13-year-old Mexican boy tells his own story as he makes a treacherous midnight crossing into California in search of his father.

“Development Hell” imagines a pitch session in which a bedraggled Edgar Allan Poe squares off with a slick Hollywood producer who wants to make a cheesy slasher flick out of “The Pit and the Pendulum.”

“A Hell of a Crime” echoes with notions of “The Twilight Zone.” A prosecutor prepares for a homicide trial while being pestered by his domineering mother. Just what role did she play in the murder?

In “Solomon & Lord: To Hell and Back,” Steve Solomon says he's going fishing with Manuel Cruz, a sleazy con man. Victoria Lord knows that Steve is up to no good, something between mischief and murder. She stows away, and the boat heads for deep water and deeper troubles.
