Escape From City 17

Toronto-based boutique film studio the Purchase Brothers, have created a short film inspired by the sci-fi first-person shooter game Half-Life 2. On a budget of just $500, the resourceful indie duo filmed the first two episodes with no crew, no script and very little time, as security patrols tried to hunt them down. Intended as a way to test out numerous post-production techniques, the mini-series has gone viral with fans around the world proclaiming its spectacular (considering budget) production quality, live action splendor, and all-round awesomeness.
