Today's Short: "Turbo"
A self-proclaimed hybrid of The Karate Kid and Tron , Turbo has the feel of a movie made for the 80's generation, but with an apparent love for 90's gaming world—particularly how it has shades of Tekken and Street Fighter in its blood, as well as the arcade setting. Starring Justin Chon ...
