Behold the Origin of Apple in the Prequel to ‘Turbo Kid’!
One of my favorite movies of 2015 was the delightfully charming Turbo Kid (review), which followed the story of “The Kid” and his new friend Apple as they traverse the wasteland, dealing with some truly despicable folk who like to make sure your insides appear on the outside!
The appearance of Apple comes seemingly out of nowhere and her origins are never fully realized, leaving the audience to wonder where she came from and why she is the way she is. While there don’t seem to be answers for the latter, the former has sorta been addressed by the latest video from Le Matos, who composed the score for the film!
Directed by RKSS, “No Tomorrow” is essentially a short film about Apple (played once again by the delightful Laurence Leboeuf) and how she got to meet “The Kid”. Full of violence, gore, and post-apocalyptic visuals, it doesn’t lose the charm set by the film, ultimately creating a delightful video that put a huge smile on my face!

AMC has announced that The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE, the standing-room-only performance celebrating AMC’s premiere of its newly-released The Vampire Lestat at New York City’s iconic Beacon Theatre last month, will debut on streaming.
The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE begins streaming on AMC+ on August 23.
Ahead of its streaming premiere, fans can preview the concert event, featuring original songs from series composer Daniel Hart and performed by Sam Reid, in Hall H at Comic Con International on July 24.
Our own Daniel Kurland attended the special event, highlighting how electric the Immortal Vampire is on stage: “It’s clear in this season of television that Reid was born to be a rock star, but it’s surreal to see him effortlessly command the stage — and the audience — at every step of the concert. He recites Shakespeare monologues and bitches out Armand between songs, all while the audience screams in support. For the duration of this concert, Reid is Lestat, and he’s given thousands of fans a memory that’s as immortal as any vampire.”
Based on Anne Rice‘s The Vampire Chronicles book series, The Vampire Lestat is the rock and roll-centric third season of AMC’s “Interview with the Vampire” created by showrunner Rolin Jones.
The Vampire Lestat goes on an electric multi-city tour while being haunted by “muses” from his wild and rebellious past. As his band’s popularity and star power rises, so does Lestat’s influence over vampires and humans alike, leaving others to contend with Lestat’s power in the face of the Great Conversion, an unnatural surge in the vampire population.
Jacob Anderson, Assad Zaman, Eric Bogosian, Delainey Hayles and Jennifer Ehle star with Reid. Executive producers include Jones, Mark Johnson, Hannah Moscovitch, the late Anne Rice, and her son Christopher Rice.
The series finale airs this Sunday, July 19, on AMC and AMC+.
