New PATRIOT ACT Clip Released on YouTube


The latest trailer has been released for the science fiction flick Patriot Act. Billed as Blade Runner meets District 9, this three minute clip from the movie definitely conjures up the film noir  feel of Ridley Scott's classic. Patriot Act is being shot in 4K and is set in a future America in the year 2078. 


Director Wayne Slaten is certainly excited about the film - he's already hinting at a sequel or possible prequel. With rumors of a multi-platform release as a feature length movie, novel and video game - we'll keep our eyes on the film's progression.

NEW IMAGE STILL RELEASED FROM THE SET OF PATRIOT ACT

Friday March 16, 2012

This still image from the set of Wayne Slaten's upcoming sci-fi epic PATRIOT ACT was released today. The image features actor Matthew Carter in an alley scene. Hunting Dropa perhaps? Not sure but the massive poster on the wall suggests some type of socialist propaganda artwork from the civil war of 2060,  or so we gather from previous press releases of the film's background story. We're also digging the neon accoutrements to the clothing. Quite frankly, we are not sure what is taking place here  but it looks amazing!  Patriot Act is scheduled for a 2013 release.

The film distinguishes itself with an exceptional style, feel and scope not commonly associated with films produced on a micro-budget level. The filmmaker attributes this to his hybrid style of filmmaking utilizing the best of cost-effective indie filmmaking techniques with an understanding  of solid film structure. Slaten produced and directed the 2011 short film, Cold War, which was accepted as an official entry at the the 2012 Cannes Film Festival.  He is the writer, producer and director on the upcoming sci-fi feature film Patriot Act.
