More About “The Wastelander: Spector 23”:
In a sprawling, apocalyptic world, an unnamed wanderer seeks answers in a long abandoned sector of the city. Guided by old legends he searches for The Temple of the Oracle: a place where “all questions are answered, all needs fulfilled.” But Sector 23 is a dangerous place, and his encounters with warring mutants, insane robots, and deadly predators will put his pursuit of the Oracle, and his need for answers, in jeopardy. Many have made the journey into Sector 23…None have returned.

  1. We had so much fun making this short- I hope you enjoy watching it! A huge thank you to the wonderful cast and crew who put so much into this film.

  2. Congrats for such a gloomy, yet excellent creation in all aspects. I wish I was a movie producer and I hope you are already getting phonecalls! I reckon game studios will be dazzled with this despite its darkness!

  3. @Oscar1977 says:

    De niño leí un cómic parecido, creo que se titulaba "la ciudad"

  4. That was good

  5. Surprisingly awesome, it's been a while since I've been able to say that, which is why I say 'surprisingly', so very well done to all involved in this. The story really pulls you into this world quickly & the pace was just right. Don't listen to those suggesting a full movie, we know the before & the after, so this was well enough to tell the whole concept, great.

  6. Shorts like this are the reason I keep watching Dust. Great visuals, action progression, the inclusion of the nanny-bot was a nice touch. Nothing to add, just thanks for this, and keep up the good work!

  7. A very heartwarming motion picture for the whole family!

  8. @A.A-g3v says:

    In the beginning it looked like it's about aliens. But then it's just about bots. Quite controversial script.

  9. Absolutely brilliant, also very dark indeed… Well done, Wastelander team… this was an incredible piece of work. One of my favorite films on Dust!

  10. I did enjoy watching the film a lot. Maybe we will work on a project together in the future.;-)

  11. Where are the Sci Fi stories that don't rely on military and human misery for plots? Sorry, my grey cells ache for a mental challenge inspired another's creativity.

  12. Very good! Very dark!

  13. is this done using unreal engine?

  14. @Ace01010 says:

    When the open beta?

  15. The Dust Fils Utopia vol 1 Update
    The Dust Fils Utopia vol 2 Update
    The Dust Fils Utopia vol 3 Update

  16. Só eu do Brasil?

  17. This looks fantastic!

  18. Solent Green times 10!!

  19. Great job on this film really enjoyed it special effects are awesome.

  20. Outstanding camera angles when running from the Zerg creature. The chatter from the ring added a lot to the tension.

  21. Thank you for the digital monopoly erhaltung. Gracias por dejar claro la ventaja que tienen en animación y humillarnos. Con…

  22. I'll suggest a new title for you. How about " Until the last Anglosaxon naci " .It would be much more appropriate.

  23. Interesting and original. Kind of MadMaxian. I liked it.

  24. Amazing work and so very well done. I am deeply impressed! Wow!

  25. @Zcyteck says:

    2:03 …. Moon destroyed. Nice touch!

  26. Logan's Run

  27. @tonyzeb says:

    Fun concept!

  28. damn i want this to be a full movie!

  29. too loud surround sound effects. bad post production for b movie. and positionig of same effects is bad. i dont want to mention bad acting

  30. A alguien se le podria ocurrir un futuro bonito y sin destrucción, estoy harto de ver la misma mierda siempre todo destruido, que asco de creadores depresivos y deprimentes….solo se les ocurre un futuro siempre arrasado , post guerra, anda y que de a estos videos deprimentes y para psicópatas.

  31. @1mindtab says:

    When you search your whole life for answers and seek false gods, you become the sacrificial lamb, instead of having lived your life.

  32. @emiaJ2 says:

    Very, very impressive.

    We need a whole series about this world.

  33. Same great atmosphere as Ruin by Wes Ball.

  34. Stay Out of the Cities….

  35. This was AMAZING! Was not expecting that ending but when he was dragged down the corridor and I saw the processing sign I KNEW this was going to be horrific but it wound up being worse than anything I thought it was going to be. Bleak doesn't even begin to describe this ending. Very, VERY well done.

  36. Well, that was grim!

  37. This was incredibly interesting, and now I have unrealistic standards for anything I create going forward haha, seriously though this was so good and subverted my expectations multiple times, I love it.

  38. Some people in this cast is from the out reach ..

  39. Fuck!!!
    Damn good story!
    Thank You for sharing.

  40. Well that was depressing.

  41. Congrats to your team on completing a difficult project. Having watched it, i would watch precisely "zero" minutes more if it were to continue. I dont enjoy dread, depression, gratuitous schlock, or disjointed, unexplained story telling. Still… congrats, im sure it was a lot of work.

  42. Boah, ist die Musik abartig nervtötend. Drei Minuten, und tschüß!

  43. @001saucer says:

    Just so so due to the non stop background music and too high of volume.. story was good though

  44. Графика просто безупречная !!!

  45. HaHA! Take that consumer credit card scam! Nobody likes being held captive where the new fresh sensation is your old body in a can!

  46. If I could see something I might enjoy it better

  47. Great film, but whoever came up with the story…needs help.

  48. So im guessing this “Emily” guy is d3ad? The only thing i dont like abt these shorts is that they leave so many questions unanswered

  49. @spelux says:

    Excelent!!!!

  50. This was a good short film but it was at the very end that it reminded me of Soylent green but on a deeper element.

  51. And they continue with AI knowing exactly what will happen.

  52. Anyone know the name of the song at the end of the clip?

  53. @Mobus_ says:

    Very original to make a grocery store terrifying.

  54. One Ring to rule them all?

  55. Sucked me in immediatly …

  56. ha ha, jak miło, wszędzie polonezy

  57. @cpuuk says:

    Clever, if depressing, short. Thanks.

  58. This is probably the best film I've seen in DUST. The detail in the world creation is off the charts, I kept pausing just to look at the creatures on the background! Strong Wasteland (the RPG) vibes. It's weird that you can feel sad for a talking ring!

  59. A glipmse of the future??

  60. @AMOKIAN says:

    Scary….chilling…..

  61. Excelente Work ❤

  62. 1:10 checking out… This was too much like watching someone play a video game.

  63. That didn't make any sense to me.

  64. …you've been in an accident. I don't think it's that bad.

  65. Gosh, actually chilling

  66. ew believe in oracle

  67. @somos says:

    Loved it. Dark as it has to be.

  68. @pauldavey says:

    One word from me "EXCELLENT"

  69. Got sucked in within 50seconds ..

  70. @plorks445 says:

    That was pretty cool!
    Cant wait for part 2.

  71. "Please wait while we call the security!"

  72. the landskape its more like crysis 2

  73. Know what would make this perfect?
    LENS FLARE!

  74. 강력한 할인 주문

  75. this is some scp kinda shit and i love it

  76. Поменьше бы черного, чуть посветлее

  77. "It's better to be safe than tortured or killed" Jesus, PSAs are dark in the future

  78. Don't let Walmart see this vid. On second thought…. what do I care? Wow, if that's sector 23, I do NOT want to see sector 24.
