Everyone said it couldn't be done but we're doing it- an old-school 80's action film shot for less money than what Michael Bay spends on his dry cleaning. We've been working on this project for about 8 months now and we've been raising money along the way. We're nearly there but we need $6500 more dollars to be fully funded! Now we're asking all of you to please, please help. We want to shoot this in March and we are so close that it hurts. Any investment helps... $10 dollars contributions will add up awfully fast if you all chip in.
Please note that even if you pledge a contribution, you will NOT be billed anything unless we receive the full $6500. So you can be sure that your money is only going towards a project that is DEFINITELY getting made!
The idea for this movie came about because the entire production team is a fan of 80's action movies. As far as we're concerned, the 80s were the renaissance of filmmaking and we want to bring it back just this once. We are the proud owners of a 1984 Camaro and a 1984 Monte Carlo SS and those two cars are just waiting to be driven into each other. We're the kind of guys that watched movies like Terminator, Die Hard, and Aliens as kids and said "Wow, one day I want to make that." Well, now is our opportunity so please help us make it a reality.
SYNOPSIS
Its 1984...an exotic dancer named Cherry has just watched the five men who assaulted her walk free with the help of a corrupt police force. Seeing no justice coming from within the system, Cherry enlists the help of her brother and they take the law into their own hands and seek justice on their own terms... one bullet at a time. But with a professional hitman after them and the police closing in, Cherry is forced to put herself and her loved ones in harm's way to satisfy her need for revenge and her desire to end the corruption that is plaguing the city.
