Brace yourselves, kids, there’s another eco flick on the horizon starring none other than Val Kilmer. The Steam Experiment tackles the subject of global warming in a rather, um, unusual way.
Ecorazzi explains:
Called The Steam Experiment, it features Kilmer playing a scientists that’s gone a bit nutty and wants the world to hear his theory on the destructive power of global warming. The only way he knows people will read it is if it’s the main headline in a major newspaper. To do this, (and giving life to metaphors on global warrming), he rigs a steam room to trap six, conveniently sexy people, and slowly raise in temperature. The longer his crazy theory and headline stay out of the newspaper, the longer the people cook and ultimately die.
Watch the trailer, below:
The premise is really kind of laughable, but I’ll reserve judgment until I actually see it. I mean, come on – it sounds like a PG version of The Saw, but in a steam room filled with attractive people and with a bloated Jim Morrison as the villain. Scary! It’ll surely make everyone realize how serious of a subject global warming really is!
And, if you just can’t get enough of Kilmer in environmentally-themed movies, he’s got another eco horror flick called The Thaw, which has something to do with defrosting wooly mammoths, coming out some time this year.
