Neill Blomkamp (District 9, Chappie) is putting the power into the hands of his fans with Oats Studios, a just-launched creative venture that’s serving as a testing ground for maximum creativity. Rather than waiting for Hollywood to finance his visionary ideas, Blomkamp hopes to essentially fan-fund wacky and wild experimental shorts that, who knows, could someday become features.
But in the meantime, he’s begun unloading a wave of shorts that are 100% free of charge, as well as instantly available to watch on YouTube and Steam. Following last week’s Sigourney Weaver-starring Rakka, which totally blew our minds and set the stage for what’s to come, Blomkamp has just unleashed Cooking With Bill, a fun short that introduces the Damasu 950.
The short plays out like a faux infomercial you’d find on an old VHS tape, presenting a new mega-powered kitchen knife that cuts through flesh and bone like a champ. Okay, so that’s kind of a spoiler, but we’re pretty sure you’ll figure out where this short is going as soon as you hit play!
