The Posthuman Project Trailers

Denny Burke is finally about to graduate high school. Senior year has been one bad thing after another: a broken leg, a broken heart, and — worst of all — a broken home. With four of his closest friends, Denny goes on one last rock-climbing trip to prove he’s ready to start his adult life… On their trip the five teens receive a genetic boost beyond anything they’d ever imagined. Denny’s soon faced with the first big decision of his adult life: does he give up these powers and stay a normal teenager, or does he keep them…and graduate from the human race?

THE POSTHUMAN PROJECT is a young adult indie science fiction feature that turns out to be an open rip-off of the Hollywood hit CHRONICLE. The characters are very similar, and the plot - about them unlocking superheroic powers while on a trip together - is virtually identical. The main difference is that this is an indie feature, so hopelessly rough around the edges in terms of technical values, the calibre of the acting, etc. It's confusingly written and the moral dilemma material is plain boring for the most part.

This film was absolutely horrible.I'll get to the point. The plot was terrible. I would be surprised if anyone could make it past 20 minutes without turning this mess off. It was extremely predictable, and I do not see the point of watching a movie if you already know what is going to happen.The acting was awful. It was more like a high school play that was double cast, and that this was the alternate cast.The graphics are basically non-existent. And the graphic layout has been done in practically every superhero movie, so it did not add anything new.I'll be blunt, skip this movie. It is terrible. Even if there is nothing else to watch, find something. Don't waste your time on this outrageously awful film.Also, the director cannot blame the budget for how terrible this movie is. I have seen better feature length films made on a smaller budget.Lastly, don't waste your time watching this movie. Find something else to do with an hour and a half of your time. There has got to be something better to do that wasting your time watching The Posthuman Project.

Firstly, that guy above me who wrote one review for IMDb - for this movie - and gave it a 10 - that guy just about admits to being on the crew of the film.This is a fairly bad movie and most definitely not worth the time to view. The acting is that of a poor high school drama club, the "special effects" essentially consist of occasional blue glowing eyes and the direction is virtually non-existent.The plot line nothing you haven't seen before, exposure to radiation gives teenagers mutant super-powers. Right.The movie openly adopts a graphic novel approach with occasional cuts to an comic book overlay of the current scene. Nice but I'm pretty sure we've seen that before too.We live in an age where almost anyone can make a film because the tools to do so are so easily accessibly. This film once again proves that not everyone should.

to think that this movie was made by a handful of high school kids in Oklahoma. this movie far exceeds its own hype. I can't wait for this to be released on DVD. I want to see some behind the scenes stuff on this one. and props to Mr. Lucas Ross on his cameo. I saw this movie for the first time on a small TV news program here in Oklahoma City a few months ago. they were talking to some of the stars about how they shot the movie on such a low budget and I thought the story was awesome. I love that they shot some of it in their actual high school and I recognized a lot of the scenery around Ft. Sill and Lake Altus. The scene where Gwenn is getting picked up from her house was my favorite because it was shot in my neighborhood. I almost flipped right there in the theater.
