"Godkiller" has a number of interesting elements and a great list of voice talent. The post-apocalyptic setting is dark, perverse, erotic, and violent. The character's have personalities as bent as their surroundings. Muckcracker's artistic style suits the story.

But, this was almost a movie. Instead what we have is a narrated storyboard. It's an excellent storyboard, but...it's a storyboard. I can only guess that one of two things happened: budget restrictions prevented this from becoming an actual animated feature, or laziness. Or both. This can't be considered a finished work, by any means, which the film itself firmly reminds you of at the end with a "TO BE CONTINUED".

Now, I believe "Godkiller" would make an extraordinary animated feature, and the narrated storyboard test that was produced proves that.

I can really only recommend this film to producers, in the hopes that they'll see the amazing potential of what this film could become and start throwing money at a studio of animators to finish it.

If you're not familiar with Pizzolo or Muckcracker, this might be a good introduction to their world but you'll probably be a lot happier if you just go out and buy the graphic novels.
