This is how humanity dies.
Men started this war. The machines will finish it.
A low-tech effects film about the horrors of war and robots.
“Mesmerizing . . . Robot radness achieved!”
- Nathan Lee, VILLAGE VOICE
“Ed Wood, the notorious director of PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE and GLEN OR GLENDA, has risen from the dead and returned to filmmaking as James Felix McKenney.”
- V.A. Musetto, NEW YORK POST
“a chiaroscuro love child of ERASERHEAD and TEAM AMERICA: WORLD POLICE.”
- S.T. VanAirsdale, THE REELER
“Enormously endearing. . . ”
- Jeannette Catsoulis, NEW YORK TIMES
“. . . Has quite a bit of contemporary political commentary layered into it — when the robots aren’t busy fighting explosively or dismembering the last humans on a ravaged Earth . . . a kind of WAITING FOR ROBOT, if Samuel Beckett’s tale had involved warring machinery.”
- Scooter McCrae, FANGORIA
“unexpectedly mesmerizing. . . as is true with all the great experiments in camp, the frills don’t matter when there are firm — and fascinating — ideas behind them.”
- S. James Snyder, NEW YORK SUN
Somewhere in the distant future, The Girl is alone. She is the last of her people, the others having died in a generations-long war that she continues to fight with the assistance of a group of antiquated robot helpers and soldiers.
Her only connection to her long-dead people is a collection of recorded journal entries made by the scientist who cared for her as a baby. His is the only friendly human face she’s ever seen. The regular transmissions from her enemy leader are always filled with threats and taunts. The girl responds to these invasions by an attack of her own, carried out by her mechanical soldiers on the contaminated surface where no human can survive.
Men started this war. The machines will finish it.
