Check it out below: I am dying to watch Guns Akimbo more out of morbid curiosity than anything else. I mean, one can’t help but wonder how many different drugs writer-director Jason Lei Howden was on while writing this script. Howden, by the way, is the dude who titled his first feature film Deathgasm. So yes, if the Guns Akimbo trailer wasn’t clear enough, you can fully expect some offbeat insane sh*t from the film. Here is the official synopsis for Guns Akimbo: Gleefully echoing elements of Edgar Wright’s Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, the Purge franchise, and videogames like Mortal Kombat, Guns Akimbo is hilariously dark, viciously violent, and potentially — chillingly — prescient. Director Jason Lei Howden (Deathgasm) foretells of a future that may soon await us: drone-captured live feeds, UFC-like competitions pushed to an extreme, and online streaming platforms used for gladiatorial entertainment all around the world. As Miles navigates the underworld of Skizm, the stakes — and the ratings — have never been higher.
