Based on the short film Zero Trooper F by Eric Lim, which recently played at the Wisconsin Film Festival, Greenside is a feature length version, and to put it in Avery's words, "IT'S ULTRA-MAN LIKE KAIJU HERO!!". So in other words, it's like a big weird monster or something. Based on the footage I have to agree this has some serious potential. Drop past the break for the nice trailer and info on the short.

"A certified genius, and local celebrity, named Dr. Abrams (played by Rob O’Brien) has developed a special device that can be used to turn an elite group of soldiers, called the 'Zero Troopers', into giant sized, Power Ranger-like, defenders. While Greenside City, a town that looks amazingly like Madison, Wisconsin, is being attacked by a giant white, "fuzzy-wuzzy" monster, the Good Doctor's invention is put into use. A giant Zero Trooper appears and begins a knock-down fight with the monster. In a surprise move, Dr. Abrams quits the defense force, right in the middle of the battle, and goes in search of his ex-girlfriend, who he discovers has already moved on in her life with another man."

Holy crapoly that looks pretty well done for an indie flick. *Clapping.* Very high quality Kung-fu.

Hey Guys my name is Eric Lim, I'm the producer and lead of Greenside. I appreciate all you fella's nice words. I wanted to give you all a heads up though that Greenside is going to clock in at about 40 minutes, so it's a short, and it's the sequel to another short I directed called Zero Trooper-F. I'm pretty sure I'm going to throw these films online for free at the site, www.zerotrooper.com, after they make their festival rounds.
