  • Oats Studios Volume 1

    First, to get this out of the way: Oats Studios is a dumb name for a self-described "experimental" sci-fi movie studio. When I think about pure science fiction creativity, nothing comes to mind faster than oats.

    Anyway, it's a project by Neill Blomkamp--whose past work I honestly haven't been that taken with--but they released their first short film on Friday. It's a 20-minute short called Rakka, and it's very cool. I can't link to it here, due to language, but it's very easy to find on youtube. The visuals and special effects are simply incredible IMO, so much so that I instantly dropped the $5 on Steam to get a download of it, as well as some artwork, etc.

    In addition to the language, it has some violence and disturbing imagery: be warned. Easily the best thing I've seen all year.

      They're planning on making a series of short sci-fi films, supposedly all interconnected. There may be plans for something bigger (full-length movie, maybe?), but I'm not sure.

      They've uploaded this first short for free, but I thought it was worth buying a download of it. If they keep releasing stuff like this, I'll buy it.

        Perhaps they're "experimental films".
