Edohotep
Cast: Edouard Audouin, Benoit Decaillon, and Virginia Michaud.
North America doesn't have to wait too long for the much coveted French take on the lifestyles of the rich and vampiric. The DVD release of Sodium Babies is October 18, and a whole new audience will finally get a chance to see the mad stylings of Maurice (aka Dead Dog), played by Benoit Decaillon.
This film is described as an artistic vision that took five years to produce. It used state-of-the-art special effects to create a smorgasbord of visual delights. Several sources describe this film as a visual delight that combines the film noir stylings of Sin City, and the pathology of Fight Club.
The City of Light has a dark side, and it gets explored with an unyielding style that is both sympathetic and loud. Dog lets audiences explore his world, his mind—his torture—and the trails that he has endured. In what is revealed, the last 30 years of his life unfolds in a series of flashback sequences.
He is trying to examine his life as it comes full circle, but when he falls for a club girl, Pussy Cat (Virgina Michaud), there are forces that are going to rock his world. His master, Max (Edouard Audouin) is not ready to let go. Dog is a ghoul, a servant to a vampire, and he kills so these bats out of hell can feed.
In what this movie looks at is more briniging art asthetics to life than plot, and for this product, that's okay. This is Paris, France after all. This city is a cosmopolitan center that gave birth to many styles of artistic expression.
The Deka Brothers have created an avant-garde masterpiece that is garnering international attention. Big Screen Entertainment Group scored big in acquiring the North American video release rights. The line-ups can potentially be huge if the major studios in Hollywood show the film in true artistic fashion: to in the salons, where a certain class of artwork always hang.
