A little ways back, we told you guys about a pretty cool upcoming, illustrated flick called GODKILLER, which just so happened to be boasting a very genre-centric cast: Danielle Harris, Lance Henriksen, Justin Pierre, Tiffany Shepis, Bill Moseley, Nicki Clyne, Katie Nisa, Lydia Lunch, and Davey Havok. Now in case you’re wondering how the hell these players work in an “illustrated” flick, we took the liberty of posting its brand new trailer for you below. My jury’s still out as to whether this bad boy is going to work. There appears to be some cool artwork and music, though. It’s all based on a comic of the same name. Let me know what you think.
Here’s the skinny on what this GODKILLER is all about: It takes place in a dark-future after economic collapse, after nuclear holy war, and after Earth is colonized by alien races. Tommy and his kid sister Lucy live in an orphanage in one of the few remaining city-states, but Lucy is critically ill and desperately in need of a new heart. Tommy’s odyssey to find a new heart for his sister begins when he follows an organ-stealing prostitute named Halfpipe out of the city-state and into the savage borderland known as Outer City. GODKILLER mixes unforgiving brutality, quantum physics, conspiracy theory, and secret history for an iconoclastic hero’s journey like none before it.
Sounds pretty crazy. Hopefully writer/director Matt Pizzolo (who created the comic along with illustrator Anna Muckcracker) will be able to pull it off. The film hits DVD on September 29th.
