SEX MACHINE lives!
You may have recall reading about the making of the indie film SEX MACHINE in the pages of the current Hitch (”The Cinematic Guilty Pleasures Issue”). The film is now complete and set to unspool, and the website for it has gone live.
For such a small film (written and directed by Christopher Sharpe), the site is loaded with content, including a trailer, a clip, behind-the-scenes production photos, a production diary and even downloadable (and well-designed) desktop images. A mesh of FRANKENSTEIN and MEMENTO, the film itself can be summed up with this line: “After a cruel experiment leaves him with body parts not all his own, an amnesiac seeks revenge on those responsible, while attempting to prevent his girlfriend from suffering the same fate.” In case you were wondering – and you were – the title refers to a tattoo on one of the hero’s two grafted arms.
I had the pleasure of attending SEX MACHINE’s cast-and-crew premiere a few days before New Year’s Eve, and it was a lot of fun. Check out the site now to whet your appetite and we’ll let you know when the DVD becomes available.
