I like the 80's vibes, music, production art and design is superb, even actors are pretty cool and it all could have gone as smooth as "Beyond the Aquila Rift " , but the script is below average and that is where I'd want to put a 7 but I'll put a 6, if you are into spaceship sci fi and art , you will enjoy it in a certain way, everyone else will just see flashy lights...

The imagery and atmosphere of this mini-series is jaw-dropping. Think Blade Runner meets Mandy meets Star Wars, and you'll have an idea (sort of) of what this is.

Beyond that, the plot is borderline nonsensical. It has to do with an AI manifesting as a weird demigod entity, and I'm sure there's some kind of commentary embedded in it that has to do with humanity's relationship to machines/religion/etc., but it's way too abstract.

Ultimately, this movie is best experienced as a visual feast, and that's about it. If you try to extract anything larger from it, you'll get caught up in an endless game of "maybe this is symbolism" that doesn't really go anywhere.

I'd love to see what this director could do with a well written script.

The good , the bad, the awesome:

the good: VISUALS / VFX / MUSICS are seriously amazing!

the bad: turn this super short into 3 parts is a bad idea. the story is just ... nhaaa ... there is almost none.

the awesome: IF you watch this short like a video clip, THEN you get a masterpiece. It is one of the best "exercise of style" i have ever seen.

thanks for this, i get a very good time watching Blood Machines. You really need to give us more! SO Much more!
