Editor's note: Intense violence in the above video, but the text below is safe.
A couple weeks ago an online frenzy followed a video clip some believed to be a short promotional film for a new Mortal Kombat video game or big-screen feature.
Recent reports reveal that the $7,500 8-minute video directed by Fame helmer Kevin Tancharoen is a self-produced project illustrating his vision for a new movie in the Kombat franchise. You'll recognize actors Michael Jai White (Black Dynamite), and Jeri Ryan (Star Trek Voyager).
Credit to this young filmmaker for some shrewd marketing online. A little mystery followed by a little buzz and next thing you know we're all talking about it.
There's an interview with Tancharoen at Hero Complex and that very cool video clip is above.
