SPACE RIPPERS is a science-bending spacesploitation splatter-fest of a feature film, from the people that brought you some artsy indie features or whatever! After releasing our previous films for free online, California Balloon Films is letting loose with an all-out sci-fi/horror/comedy about releasing movies for free online. Estimated completion: November 2016

You're not going to believe...	No one expected this trick to work, but it does! B-Cards are revolutionary...

Who and or what are the SPACE RIPPERS?

SPACE RIPPERS brings the feel of the 80s to the timeless story of astronaut media pirates facing off against a soul-sucking space witch, in a movie filled with practical gore effects, spaceship miniatures, wire work, and big ideas on a small budget.

For decades, the Space Rippers have orbited Earth, uploading torrents from the last place the law can’t reach. But when public sentiment turns against the sexy squad of amateur astronauts, they risk ripping a legendary cursed DVD, only to release an Anti-Piracy Witch packing malevolent magic and a hunger for Homo Sapiens. Now the Rippers are in a no-holds-barred battle not for Earth’s entertainment…but for its survival.

SPACE RIPPERS is a throwback not just to the films of the 80s, but to the technology as well. In our perks on the right, you’ll see everything from VHS to floppy disks to spaceship models (no Betamax…we’re sorry!).

Who is California Balloon Films?

California Balloon Films is a Canadian independent production and distribution company. We create smart, silly, and (somewhat) polished genre films that tell important stories. The Cali-B crew believes in the democratizing power of the internet, and we’ve built our free-to-watch distribution model on the idea that easy distribution for our company should mean easy consumption for our viewers.

SPACE RIPPERS is new territory for us. After releasing two features, Truth and Android Night Punch, free online -- and while we finish post-production on our feature April for another free online release -- we’re trying something a little sillier and a lot spacesploitation-ier than the serious-minded genre twists that we’ve done previously.

SPACE RIPPERS is an homage to the wonderful era of practical effects, crazy plots, and wacky style that was the 80s…with our own special flavour, of course. It’s not a spoof. It’s a love letter to an amazing, weird, unpredictable, and blood-drenched time in low-budget filmmaking.

WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO?

We have a huge team putting in volunteer hours for this project. This movie’s something that we’re excited about, and as with our previous movies, getting to show you our movie is more important than making money for it!

Where we really need help is in putting together the absolute necessities for a film like this:

Giving the SFX makeup people the budget they need to cut off heads, pull out guts, and generally go crazy
Constructing the sets that make up the interior of our ship, The Space Ripper
Constructing a larger version of our current Ripper miniature to get more dynamic and unusual 80s style composited space shots

Past Makup

Example of past gore makeup from our SPFX makeup artist Sandra Makarewicz

And that’s pretty much it! We’re covering everything else out of pocket, from test effects to equipment to talent to post-production. This movie is our passion and we’re willing to get behind it with everything we’ve got.

WHAT HAPPENS WITH THE FILM?

SPACE RIPPERS is new territory for us in one other way: we don’t plan to release it free online. Instead, we have one very defined goal…we want to get a “real” release so that people can add this thing to their collections (and later sell whatever defunct technology it’s printed on for 25 cents at a yard sale)!

We’re targeting several excellent distributors that believe in indie flicks and pushing the boundaries of horror, comedy, and sci-fi. One way or another, we will get this movie out there for you – and everyone – to see it!
