Adrian Paul vs. Robotic Eye Killing Machine Whatchamacallits

They can see you — and they can kill you! Now doesn’t that sound better than the movie’s official tagline: “Your Government is Watching Out For You”? I think so. But then again, I’m typing this while eating a taco, so who cares, right? Take a look at “Eyeborgs” from Crimson Wolf Productions. What’s that saying? In the land of the blind, the one-eye cyborg will choke you to death. Or something.

EYEBORGS tells the story of a near future where mobile robotic surveillance cameras known as “Eyeborgs” constantly watch everyone for possible criminal activity.

Adrian Paul stars as Robert J. “Gunner” Reynolds, an agent for the Department of Homeland Security whose testimony before a Senate committee triggered the creation of the Eyeborgs. He believes in the system and has come to depend on the robots as a vital tool in the war on terror.

But Gunner is forced to question his beliefs when a terror suspect in his custody dies in an apparent escape attempt and the video recorded by the Eyeborgs doesn’t match his recollection of how events occurred. The incident leads him on a personal investigation into a series of untimely deaths. Gunner soon comes to believe that terrorists have seized control of the Eyeborgs and are using our own system against us in a plot to assassinate the President.

“Eyeborgs” stars Adrian Paul, Megan Blake, Luke Eberl, and actually features the first movie I’ve ever seen where Danny Trejo has more than 2 lines, and does more than just brandish a machete while grunting menacingly at a whimpering Caucasian.

The film won the award for Best Visual Effects at this year’s Action on Film Festival in Pasadena, California and been picked as an official selection for this year’s International Horror and SciFi Film Festival to be held this week in Tempe, Arizona.
