Modern B-Movie Cult Film with Hot Rods, Zombies, Aliens and a killer soundtrack.
Intended Audience: Mature
When big city newspaper reporter Vanessa Trojan (Lindsay Calkins) goes to a small backwater town, named Anywhere, Washington, to do a feature article on two female Street Racing icons, she doesn’t realize that this will be the last article she ever writes. When the icons- the always talkative Jo Leene Dodge (Melene Marie Brown) and permanently mute Betty Petty (Kimberly Layfield) take Vanessa to a rukus rockabilly house party, a stange light appears from the sky, and people start to feel sick. The party ends in a vicious brawl between Jo Leene and jealous rival Vikki Lee (Heather Lewis).
The next day Jo Leene is accused of killing Vikki Lee, whohas dissappeared with only her severed fingers found on the seat of her wrecked car. As more people turn up missing or murdered Anywhere’s only detective- Detective LLoyd (Jimmi Davies) soon realizes that this is not a simple murder case, but something much, much bigger.
As the girls, aided by Betty’s blind punk rock grandma (J Maki) struggle
Hot Rod Girls Saves The World is my first feature length work and the first Hot Rod movie (to my knowledge) in the last 20 years. The Hot Rods in this film were built by real gearheads in their backyards and shops. I have tried to create a complete world where aliens from the planet Moosa Maa collide with a small town steeped in Hot Rods and Kustom Kulture. The New versus Old. Yin and Yang. My film making style is influenced by late 50’s B&W TV, Campy B-Movies, Car Chase Films, grainy 16mm Art House Films and the work of Directors David Lynch, Jim Jarmusch, Stanley Kubrick and Russ Meyer. I firmly believe in the Punk Rock D.I.Y. creative ethos and apply that to all my endeavors (music, film, art, writing and sculpture). I also feel that finding your own voice in your art and film making is more important than trying to emulate the latest trend or Hollywood Blockbuster. I hate Hollywood Politics, Movie Stardom and anything that detracts from creativity in film. I also am actively working to build the Northwest and Seattle film communities. I have an extensive background in music production as a signed recording artist, producer and Record Label owner and bring those elements to my film making. I taught myself to film by starting a weekly magazine style TV show called Go-Kustom TV that was very successful and aired in the Greater Seattle area on Public Access for 4 seasons. Look for our next film Rat Rod Rockers! early 2010!
