Mutants looks like the bastard child of 28 Days Later and Children of Men.
And Mer can delete my comments all she wants, but I still say it's a little arrogant of Mexico to think it would be the recipient of outsourced tele-presence mecha labor instead of India, where all the tech jobs are going these days. I mean who would you trust with your million dollar robotic drones: the culture that believes the 80 work week starts at age 8, or the one that came up with the concept of "Siesta?"
@cash907: I know this is pedantic, but you do realize that the "siesta" is pretty much what all near-equatorial countries around the world do to avoid their farmers dropping dead from mid-afternoon heat, right?
I mean... originally it wasn't just nappy time for "dem lazy messicans".
@TomSkylark: I dream about a zombie movie who's plot is that in the near future, there are so many zombie movie makers in the world that one day they just all mutate and start to eat us.
The kicker? The whole thing will be filmed in anti-zombie movie cliche. Long shots, panoramic views, steady cameras, no jump cutting, almost no blood at all.
@Pope John Peeps II: I'd watch it if they started eating each other, which would be both fun and a commentary on the glut of shaky-cam jump-cut zombie movies.
