Two years ago, synthwave artist Carpenter Brut debuted a visually stunning video for his song "Turbo Killer" that was written and directed by Seth Ickerman. Since then, the video has racked up nearly 5 million views – and Ickerman has crafted a 40 minute sequel titled BLOOD MACHINES.
Starring Elisa Lasowski, Anders Heinrichsen, and Christian Erickson, BLOOD MACHINES tells the story of
an A.I. escaping its spaceship then turning into a female ghost who will challenge two blade runners to an galactic chase.
Funded by a successful Kickstarter campaign and executive produced by KUNG FURY director David Sandberg, BLOOD MACHINES was filmed at the end of last year and is currently in post-production, targeting a late 2018 delivery date. The sci-fi project was produced by Logical Pictures, the co-producer of the recent releases REVENGE and INCIDENT IN A GHOST LAND.
As BLOOD MACHINES makes its way through post, we are proud to feature the EXCLUSIVE debut of the first teaser trailer for the short. The (somewhat NSFW) teaser is embedded below, along with the original "Turbo Killer" video.
Boasting 400 visual effects shots, BLOOD MACHINES is an ambitious and impressive production, and I'm hyped to see the completed short.
