'District 9' directors dystopian short movie 'Rakka' is out it's utterly insane!
I've been pretty excited about District 9 director Neil Blompkamp’s experimental new film company Oats Studios for a couple of weeks now, but nothing could have prepared me for just how insane the first short movie is.
Rakka and is a 20 minute feature that tells the story of the aftermath of an alien invasion by some lizard like creatures called the Klum. They’ve already taken over the planet due to their superior powers of telekinesis and mind control but they’re not just content to enslave the human race – they also want to perform some hideous and twisted torture experiments on us.
It’s defintely one of the most bleak views of the future I've ever seen. Well, that and The Handmaid's Tale which is just as terrifying. Anyhoo, I digress. Watch the whole movie below:
Eeesh, pretty intense right? If you enjoyed that then there's plenty more where that came from as the director has three more 20 minute shorts ready to be released soon.
