Filmmaker Evan Glodell will be partying away in Austin because his SXSW 2011 premiere of Bellflower will be happening this weekend. Attendees will see him unveil his hand-crafted, road ready and apocalypse- equipped car – Medusa. This unforgettable machine creates some of the film’s most high-octane moments amidst the romance and revenge-fantasy tale of Woodrow’s journey of love, betrayal and vengeance.

Glodell, a former engineering student, constructed Medusa to be a real-life road monster. Unlike the Batmobile, Glodell’s Medusa is the real deal. There are no CGI or special camera tricks needed. The extraordinary features you see in the film are the same features you will see when you meet Medusa in person!

Medusa is equipped with two fuel injected exhaust flamethrowers with a 30,000 volt ignition system, smoke screen, a bleach drift-kit, adjustable rear suspension, 3 surveillance cameras (all in which are controlled from the dashboard), a customized apocalypse exhaust system, 6-71 Supercharger, posi rear end, a self-contained oxygen supply for chemical or underwater warfare, a roll cage, stow-able fold-down back seat and occasionally holds a sawed-off shotgun in the trunk in case of emergency.

Medusa is available for demonstrations throughout the 2011 SXSW Film Festival!

Now the movie, Bellflower, was a critic and audience favorite at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival. One person reported high energy and gorgeous imagery all of which come together in a story of love and explicit mayhem on the outskirts of L.A.

The movie opens in theaters July 22nd, 2011.
