Blood Machines

Preface: I watched this on shudder and feel there's a chance they screwed up. It was 3, perhaps 15min long, episodes that didn't seem to flow.

As a movie: it's not good. Terrible acting. You have no real idea of who the caraters are, why they are in the situation and what the objective of their mission is. And why does his Lazer blaster drip and fire in odd directions? Franz Solo sucks!

As an elongated music video: IT'S RAD! Wonderful visuals, colors, and flow to an AWESOME album by Bruit.

Perhaps there will be more episodes or they will fix what feels like bad editing/coding for the streaming service and it will be much better.

This needed to be 30 minutes overall. The vfx and atmosphere were great, but there was no coherent story. I still didn't understand what was really going on in there.

The plot is thin, almost nonexistent (2/10) acting is over and wooden. Visual style is very original, creative and amazing (10/10). Beats standard unimaginative Marvel blockbusters in that respect.

This feels more like demo than finished film. Creator should get good writer, story and maybe director before creating the next movie. There is only so far you can go with only visuals.

I like the 80's vibes, music, production art and design is superb, even actors are pretty cool and it all could have gone as smooth as "Beyond the Aquila Rift " , but the script is below average and that is where I'd want to put a 7 but I'll put a 6, if you are into spaceship sci fi and art , you will enjoy it in a certain way, everyone else will just see flashy lights...

The good , the bad, the awesome:

the good: VISUALS / VFX / MUSICS are seriously amazing!

the bad: turn this super short into 3 parts is a bad idea. the story is just ... nhaaa ... there is almost none.

the awesome: IF you watch this short like a video clip, THEN you get a masterpiece. It is one of the best "exercise of style" i have ever seen.

thanks for this, i get a very good time watching Blood Machines. You really need to give us more! SO Much more!
