A live action short film written and directed by comic book artist Adam Pollina based on his comic book ROMP.
THE STORY:
Emilio Rompiero (a.k.a. Romp) is a shy, delusional, teenage boy who has convinced himself that he is the ultimate street-fighting superhero, in spite of the small fact that he was born without any arms! He teams up with his trainer/manager, Chi Chi Gigante, a one-eyed, former Pro-Wrestling Midget Champion. Together, this Disfunctional Dynamic Duo set out to reclaim their Crime Infested 'Hood.....one block at a time. His first day "On the Job," Romp mentally prepares for the tough but valiant road ahead. Today he reclaims his block. Today is his first streetfight. The Challenger? Merely a 6ft. 4in., 315 lb. local bully named Lu Lu Lewbrowski.
The Romp will be airing on Starz and Showtime as post movie fillers throughout May and June.
The short film was turned into a music video by the band Sevendust for their song "Enemy" which can be viewed here.
