Stingray Sam, A Musical Space Western by Cory McAbee

Here’s the trailer for “Stingray Sam”, the new musical space western written and directed by Cory McAbee, with music by American Astronaut and narrated by David Hyde Pierce. Stingray Sam will be premiering at Sundance Film Festival 2009.

A dangerous mission reunites STINGRAY SAM with his long lost accomplice, The Quasar Kid. Follow these two space-convicts as they earn their freedom in exchange for the rescue of a young girl who is being held captive by the genetically designed figurehead of a very wealthy planet. This musical space-western miniseries is designed for small screens and perfect for screens of all sizes.

Cory’s last film “The American Astronaut” (2001) was amazing, so I’m really looking forward to seeing what he has in store for us in “Stingray Sam”.

I'm thrilled for this. Cory McAbee has great artistic precision and strong sense of fun. His commentary track for The American Astronaut is a video of him showing the film on a screen at a bar, talking through the production, his life story, and taking questions from those in the bar who had — and hadn't — seen the film. We can safely anticipate radness from this one when it plays the Red Vic.
