I would not have necessarily guessed that a movie called EYEBORGS would capture my interest, but then I’m not too good at guessing thing. So it goes, this trailer for, yes, EYEBORGS, actually has some really interesting things going on in it. To get an idea what I’m talking about, watch the video below, and here’s a detailed synopsis that really spells it all out for you.
Set in near future Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Eyeborgs combines action, horror, and political commentary in a tale of sophisticated surveillance robots going out of control. Following another 9/11 scale terrorist attack, the Department of Homeland Security takes extreme precautions to monitor the nation, including introducing small surveillance machines called “Eyeborgs” that can not only monitor the populace but even enforce the law with potentially deadly force. Suffice it to say, the Eyeborgs go haywire; possibly due to sabotage or possibly due to the machines becoming sentient enough to reprogram themselves. A Homeland Security agent, TV reporter, and the President’s punk rocker nephew join forces to find out the truth behind the Eyeborgs’ major malfunction and find a way to control-alt-delete them once and for all.
EYEBORGS stars Adrian Paul, Megan Blake, and Danny Trejo. It was directed by Richard Clabaugh. It just had its premiere at the London Film Festival, and hopefully we’ll get to see it here in the States sometime soon.
