Cowboys & Engines

[Philip Guyott]

I know that in the past people have posted other independent sci-fi productions within the ‘fan productions’ section, so I hope nobody is going to mind me posting this here.

Cowboys & Engines is now out on YouTube. It stars Richard Hatch, Star Trek alumni Walter Koenig and Malcolm McDowell.

Description:

The film is an extended pitch piece, aimed at turning the concept into either a film or a series. As such, it isn't a linear narrative; it's a selection of scenes from the feature that give the viewer the story arc, and a sense of the world and its characters.

Our goal was to create a world that lives and breathes; an old west framed by a steampunk aesthetic that is at once fantastic and yet completely believable and real. A full feature script and a deck outlining a 13-episode 1-hour adventure series are available.

Set in an alternate 1876, Cowboys & Engines follows Cade Ballard, the former Texan ambassador, as he encounters Guinivere Wheeler, a sexy gunslinger and con artist. Together, they form an uneasy pact to stop Dr. Clay, a would-be conqueror who wants to unleash the destructive power of the Temporal Engine, a machine that threatens to lay waste to the entire city of San Francisco.

Interesting, would like to see more. Looks like a more character driven version of "Cowboys and Aliens" with added steampunk goodness!

Only problem I had, was how Hatch and Koenig almost disappeared repeatedly during the campfire scene!
