Do not mess with Sam Ransom. He may only be ten years old but he'll take you down. If the martial arts skills don't do it and the shotgun sticks he'll just breathe fire on you. Then he'll knock back a shot. This kid's a badass. Really. No stunt doubles in this, he does it all himself.

That's what I have learned from the trailer for Judd Tilyard's Frame 137, a short film adapted from a short comic by The Crow author James O'Barr. Reportedly in development for several years Tilyard is wrapping up post on the film now and it is looking rather good indeed. Check out the trailer below.

What is up with the screen aspect ratio?

Bad ass. Love it to bits. And the super-duper wide screen? That rocks. The wider the better in my books. :)

@Agent Wax: They shot it with one of those Red One camera rigs and this special lens that shoots REALLY wide so it comes off looking like Cinemascope. Seems completely unnecessary but everything about this short seems to hinge of style.

Oh. It's weird, though. The film might look good on a bigger screen but the teaser is really kind of small.

Looks OK, too bad the kid doesn't have an inch of charisma and probably couldn't act to save his life... Next!
