It is my sincere and fond hope that that is the tell, the signal letting us know that the whole thing is way the fuck over-the-top satire. As in, if the Zucker Bros. -- or maybe the Farrelly Bros. -- were making a Tarantino flick.
It appears to be related to the movie Machine Girl (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1050160/), which is sitting on the shelf in the next room. I grabbed it at Best Buy one day off the ultra-cheap rack ($3 or $4 if IIRC) I think I need to move it up the queue. ^_^
I wish I could say that I didn't believe that this was a legit movie trailer. I really wish that I could. Having grown up on Godzilla movies and bad kaiju movies (like Inframan, which as awesome but cheesetastic)and other weird movies, I can honestly say that I think it's a real movie.
I don't know whether to rejoice at the campiness of it all or weep that we didn't think of it first. ;)
At first I was going to giddily show this to some friends because it's just so amazingly over the top and ridiculous. But then there was the sword-to-the crotch shot and... eugh. No, I couldn't.
Otherwise, this is just such an insane movie that it would normally MUST be seen!
Thank you Tom, for making my head explode. I'm going to have to spend the rest of the night scrubbing grey matter and bone fragments off of the walls. I hope you're happy.
Have you seen Machine Girl? This one's by the same director, I believe. I've only seen the trailer, but my boyfriend and some of his friends watched it during a Bad Movie Night. The best way to describe both Machine Girl and RoboGeisha is: hilariously bad. Whether or not that was exactly the director's intention, however, I'm not sure.
still waiting for the robogeisha to buffer completely...as to the bagel head thing, sad and idiotic as it is, i can see some fool klingon fan doing that and shaping it to look like something out of one of the Star Trek movies!

Definitely not safe for anyone.
Of course you know this means I need to find the movie and get friends together for a complete riff of it now.
