Maximum Surge (2003)

Trivia

Maximum Surge

Edit
Combines 65 minutes of new film footage with 35 minutes of film footage acquired from five separate FMV video games - all from Digital Pictures (Prize Fighter (1993), Supreme Warrior (1994), Corpse Killer (1994), Quarterback Attack with Mike Ditka (1995), and the previously-canceled Maximum Surge (1996)). In a similar manner to the original Raymond Burr Godzilla, all scenes with Yasmine Bleeth and Walter Koenig were originally shot for computer games that never made it to market in 1998. It weaves together a new story and plot connecting the various games together.
The scenes in the computer lab were filmed over the period of a few days in a school in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada that taught visual arts. The interior locations were not changed very much from how they looked in real life: the only major changes were the addition of some colorful lights and the windows were blocked out with paper. The main theater where the "supercomputer" was housed was in reality a gigantic green-screen room that the school used for the creation of virtual sets and motion-captured action. The school was paid $5,000 for the use of the facilities in the film. It has since been bought out by a much larger school. The futuristic exterior of the computer lab is actually a government food inspection agency half a block away from the school.
In the trailer, Walter Koenig's own voice is used for the scenes with the humanoid Drexel. In the actual film however, all of Koenig's dialogue is overdubbed by Manny Petruzzelli.
Despite being featured prominently on the front cover of the DVD artwork, Yasmine Bleeth only appears via the stock footage from the unreleased game Maximum Surge.
