Auto Flame Thrower

Interview: Armed With A Flamethrower And A Camera, Bellflower's Evan Glodell ...

Parked somewhere on the Comic Con-clogged streets of San Diego was Mother Medusa, a jet-black, fire-breathing 1972 Buick Skylark that Evan Glodell had driven down there from L.A. The car is the centerpiece of both the underground marketing campaign for Glodell's film, Bellflower , and the movie itself, a made-on-a-shoe-string, violent and challenging Sundance success that's pretty much the opposite of the corporate blockbusters usually trotted out at Comic Con. When I talked to Glodell in Manhattan a few days before the Con, he didn't seem entirely certain why he was headed there, but he and much of his production team were game anyway, doing interviews and holding forth at a happy hour scheduled directly opposite the massive panel for The Amazing Spider-Man .

Bellflower isn't taking on big Hollywood quite as literally as that scheduling conflict would suggest-- it's a small movie, distributed by tiny Oscilloscope Pictures, and is as likely to alienate audiences with its twisted humor and violence as it is to delight them. The formula here is much closer to that of your usual festival success, Sundance buzz translating into a splashy SXSW spot (complete with demonstrations of Mother Medusa's flame shooters and a cricket eating contest) which led to Glodell's grueling national tour, driving the clanky old car up and down the East Coast to bring Bellflower to a series of festivals. He's done about 50 post-screening Q&As, admitting he gets super nervous before all of them, and when I saw him at a rooftop party at Comic Con his voice was a hoarse whisper, with plenty more interviews to go the next day. (Bizarrely, I had also lost my voice, and we were forced to conclude that one of us had gotten the other sick over the course of our 40-minute interview-- a definite first for my professional career).

Renegade Ops – Let's Talk About Upgrades | Latest Updates

I wanted to drop by with more information about our PSN PLAY -bound title Renegade Ops, focusing on upgrades you’ll use to enhance your chosen vehicle. The upgrades are there to help you tailor your character to your preferred play style…though all four characters can be played balls-to-the-wall, and you’re never going to have enough time to sit back and take in the gorgeous scenery for long.

First though, allow me to give you the first exclusive look at the latest trailer which surprisingly enough shows off some of these upgrades.

<!–

The better you are at the game – in other words the more enemies you destroy, stunts you pull and collectibles you grab – the quicker you’ll reach the next level, and in this game levels mean prizes…well, upgrade points. So, how can you spend these points? Well you’ll have the choice of three skill trees to spread your points over, so you can customise your character depending on how you best play the game. The only limit to this is the amount of upgrades you can have active at one time; the higher your level, the more upgrades you can equip.

What I’ll do below is detail the upgrades you’ll have access to, and then give you an example using my current level 19 Roxy build.

All Character Upgrades

Defense

Spare Parts : Chance of spawning health pick-ups from your vehicle when hit by explosive damage

Nitro : Double tap turbo button for nitro speed boost, also extinguishes fire if used when burning

Second Chance : Death is delayed by 10 seconds so you can find a health pick up to stay alive.
