“Uh let’s just not make this into a whole thing.” Let the battle begin! This is a must watch<\/a> new homemade film. A kick ass new sci-fi short film has arrived online called Temporal Takedown, an 8-minute long action thriller about a woman taking on a group of thugs at a dirty car workshop. Temporal Takedown is the latest creation from Oslo-based filmmaker Martin Sofiedal, who also made the Uncharted: Ambushed fan film<\/a> from 2014, the sci-fi comedy Blasted<\/a>, and the MIB: Neuralize This! fan film<\/a> we also posted last year. In this one: a woman with mysterious time freezing powers infiltrate a car mechanic workshop in hopes of learning about a nefarious gangster. An epic and time-bending fight ensues. Pretty much they entire short is this fight with some sci-fi effects thrown in. Martin explains they made this short for only $1800 in Oslo – all the performers did their own stunts and he also worked on the VFX himself. It’s awesome! I can’t believe they did this on such a tiny budget! He really should be making more feature films now. Click on play below.<\/p>\n
