Massacrator... do I really even need to go further into detail? The name alone writes the review. You take a "Massacre" and you mix it with "The Terminator" and you have Massacrator. A four minute short film, it's not something I can really dissect for you without giving away the entire plot. However, I will give you the general idea: taking a cue from The Terminator, we find a tough guy transported to our reality (kinda...) wearing no clothes. He finds a biker in an alley and immediately punches his head completely off. With his foe decapitated, he takes the biker's clothes and motorbike and sets off to find the person he has been sent to "terminate". The target turns out to be a young woman with an attitude and a love for exercising. When The Massacrator breaks into her apartment, she flees the scene however and stumbles upon the grave of Elvis, who rises from the dead! He then uses his magic powers of rock & roll to cause his motorbike to rise from its grave right next to his. Now this young woman is on the lamb with the King of Rock, will he be able to save her?

It's a short that is as crazy as it sounds, maybe even more-so. Detailing all of that wild stuff mentioned above, but done so in a hyper-kinetic and adrenaline fueled high speed mix of editing and gonzo photography. Within the first 35 seconds of the short, we're given our first decapitation. From there, the movie goes into a high speed pursuit that lasts for the remainder of the short. A strange silent film with only music blaring over the audio, we watch as The Massacrator drives his stolen motorbike from the freeway into the house of our Sarah Connor-esque character in 0.5 seconds. It is as if Japanese director Shinya Tsukamoto got together with (director of Six-String Samurai) and the two decided to make something as wild and as violent as they possibly could. It certainly succeeds in doing just that. A strange, wild and fun ride. If you get the chance to check it out, take the four minutes and enjoy it for the insane burst of cinematic energy that it is. I sincerely hope that we get to see more from director Pierre Ayotte!
