Bounty Killer
Director: Henry Saine
Post-apocalyptic action movies are abundant in this day and age, from Terminator: Rise of the Machines to Death Race, it’s not hard to find one if you’re a fan of the genre. It can, however, be tough to find a good one. One that blends action with solid characterization and a narrative that makes sense from start to finish. One like Henry Saine’s “Bounty Killer“.
Sophie and I went to see Bounty Killer yesterday, and we both felt that it was a triumph of the genre film, gory action, and fun action.
Scott: I wanna start off by saying that this was a great action movie, and I can’t wait for it’s general release because I want to see it again. This is gonna be one movie that I’ll pick up on BluRay to add to my collection.
Soph: Yeah i feel the same. This was the perfect movie to see with some buddies, yelling and cheering at the screen.
Scott: The Fantasia crowd certainly didn’t hurt. Everyone was into the movie in the theatre.
So the roots of Bounty Killer start in two of my favorite places; the internet and comic books. Jason Dodson and Henry Saine started a Kickstarter project to fund the release of the Bounty Killer graphic novel.
From there, they went on to make a short film, which led to the production of the full length feature. One thing that I did like about the feature film was the use of animation. The art was slick and stylized, but also helped to set the tone for the movie; a fun, blood splattering romp through a war-blasted world. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
