Update: Turbo film Online for Viewing!
So the other day I tripped over the trailer for a gem of a film and posted it here. It was Streetfighter meets professional gaming, and it looked like a lot of fun.
The film is called Turbo, and while it was mentioned in the comments that it wasn’t just a trailer – that was online… the whole film was. Legitmately! Its an indie film and the trailer was for the half hour short film.
And this was confirmed when Jarrett Lee Conaway, the Director of Turbo sent me an email with the link to the full flick. So here it is!
I love the 90s video game feel “in game” while the real world players trash talk it up in the heat of competition. The effects are amazing for an indie film, and I would love to see this picked up for a big budget version.
Check out the Official Turbo Website to see more.
Just checked out the website.. Movie Looks awesome, great idea and love the notes from the director talking about his love of games that I to was into as well. Punch Out, Street fighter, Killer Instinct etc. Will be watching this tonight..cant wait! short films are highly under appreciated.
Thanks for the post Rodney, movie is just up my alley and im sure many others.
Not bad, a little corny on some bits and reminds me of some old late 80’s early 90’s B rated action flicks. Like the special effects not bad for an indie film.
Not bad at all. It would be interesting to see it played out on the big screen with a two hour run time.
damn girl in the beginning is hot as hell
I am digging the old school feel to the game aspect of this short. This is what I wish Gamer and the Street Fighter films were more like. This is a films that could very easily transfer over to a bigger budget feature, especially in this new generation of movie goers. There would need to be a few changes and some better writing for sure, but the premise is killer.
Seamus looks a lot like McLovin hahahah
