Minuteman movie trailer shows off PC game footage


You may remember a few months ago we did a feature on the upcoming low budget action movie Minuteman. The film incorporates PC gaming into its storyline of a retired soldier who is attacked by his former Special Forces members. A playable PC game was created especially for the movie with assistance from students from The Guildhall.

Now the first trailer from the movie has been released and you can see parts of the actual Minuteman game in action in the brief sneak preview. While the filming of the movie has been completed there's no word yet on when the movie will be released. There's also no word on if the Minuteman game shown in the trailer could be released on its own.

Feature: Upcoming movie Minuteman uses custom game as part of story


It's one thing to create a feature film that has a game as part of the plot. It's another to actually make a working game that will be integrated into the movie. That's what Dallas-based Dreamfly Productions is doing with their upcoming sci-fi film Minuteman.

The movie, currently filming in the Dallas area, deals with a former Special Forces soldier who had now retired and is now working on a ranch. However his former Special Forces members stage a surprise attack against him and now he has to fight for his life against the seemingly brainwashed soldiers. The movie will cut between live action and a game called Minuteman which will help reveal why these attacks are occurring. The film is being written and directed by Mark Millhone and stars actor Riley Smith in the lead role of former Captain Lance Deakin. Veteran actors like Willa Ford , Barry Corbin, Christian Kane and Marshall Teague have also been cast in the film.
