Trailer Synopsis Cast

Casey Jones is the story of a quirky young man with an irresistible propensity for violence. A lifelong outcast, Casey learned at a young age to channel his brutal urges into sports, but after being kicked off the local hockey team for excessive force during practice, Casey moves back in with his worrisome mother to seek solace at his boyhood home. His retreat is soon interrupted though when a vicious gang of street punks, the Purple Dragons, savagely beat him with pipes for attempting to remove their graffiti. After narrowly escaping the encounter with his life, Casey vows to single-handedly rid his neighborhood of crime. Armed with a golf bag loaded with clubs and sporting a fearful hockey mask, Casey stalks the alleyways by night, mercilessly trouncing any delinquents unlucky enough to cross his path. The misguided crusader soon goes off the deep end, and an unlikely ally from the sewers is forced to intervene before the vigilante annihilates every criminal in the city.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

As a child of the late 80's/ early 90's I grew up watching the ninja turtles cartoon every week and became obsessed. As I'm sure with most people I couldn't get enough. Got the video game, action figures and of course the live action movies. If you really like the movies and like the darker take of the comics then this short is an amazing complement to it. It adds so much o the turtles mythos. Just a chance to see Casey jones get pushed over the edge and take back his neighborhood back by force is amazing! It really reminded me of an old school revenge movie, but in the turtles universe. The other great thing is you also see a few people from the t.m.n.t. universe make cameos.Really wish this was the direction they were going instead of the Michael Bay crap that is coming out. Kudos to all involved. I saw this movie for free online on the official website and had to own it and proudly put it in my collection.

This was lame. It was almost a shot for shot remake of the original TMNT.It adds nothing to the story or character of Casey Jones. The only difference is that he is allowed to be more violent. The scenes are all the same as seen in the movie, even most of the lines are repeated word for word.It's a low-budget do over that's even cheesier than original film.They tried to give a more realistic view of a violent vigilante, but all they did was add a bit more blood. They added nothing to the character and nothing to the story.

if you'd like a review. i thought the movie was decent for a low budget short. however i think the violent portrayal of casey jones went a bit past comical into deranged. and i just watched hostel 3.i know this meeting was already done in a turtles movie. but this shows just a little bit more of how crazy casey jones can be.also.. the pizza delivery was from 'ninja pizza' i think a spoof on ninja burger. an online hamburger delivery service provided by ninja.if that is the case, i think the director deserves some credit for tossing that in there."Guaranteed delivery in 30 minutes or less, or we commit Seppuku!"classic.

I typically stay away from shorts from unknown directors, but being a long time TMNT fan I decided to give this one a shot. Let me first start off by saying that it's obviously low budget, but this doesn't mean it's low in quality. The acting (sans Michelangelo) is forced and bad, though the lead tends to do a much better job when he puts the mask on. The script was dry and didn't have much substance to it. However, the director was able to convey a bit of a darker side to Casey Jones.The fight scenes weren't bad, though Casey is most certainly violent. There are a couple of scenes I found myself no longer rooting for him and instead seeing a vigilante that was really no better than the people he was protecting society from. I'd check it out if you have 30 minutes, I think with a bigger budget and better actors, this director could go far with this idea.
