I hope everyone has been following this. Totally awesome. This guy Kevin Tancharaoen set out to get Warner Brothers to allow him to make a HARD R-Rated movie of Mortal Kombat, rather than the campy corny PG-13 versions before.
So a few years back he made a short film using some actor friends of his called "Mortal Kombat: Rebirth". It starred actors Michael Jai-White (Spawn, Black Dynamite) as Jax, Jeri Ryan (Star Trek DS9) as Sonya Blade and Ian Anthony Dale (The Event) as Scorpion.
Due to the overwhelmingly positive raves the short got, WB allowed him to do an online series of short films (roughly 8-10 minutes each) giving some backstory to each of the main characters. Season 1 just wrapped up tonight with the finale.
Below I've embedded all the episodes (and the original Rebirth film). Check them out and post up your thoughts. This is pretty cool!
