COOCHIE KILLS THE CORONAVIRUS
Art from an unproduced film that sort of shot itself in the foot by being about something so immediately dated. Line recordings and character models were completely finished. The animation itself was incomplete.
Possum: A bogan assassin and a huge cunt.
Kyle: A living ballsack that moonlights as an assassin.
Mendelsohn: Literally Ben Mendelsohn from the movie Killing Them Softly.
Emma Braddock: A female assassin that seems like the main character at first but dies brutally in the first few minutes.
Camazotz: A giant bat who is upset that everyone is blaming bats for the coronavirus.
Below is an AI generated synopsis of the script I wrote.
The script opens with Mendelsohn interviewing Emma Braddock for an assassin job in a post-COVID lockdown world. Emma highlights the difficulties of the past few years. Their interview is violently interrupted by Possum, who brutally murders Emma. Possum confronts Mendelsohn about being asked to work on the last day of lockdowns. Mendelsohn reveals an anonymous tip about rogue scientists trying to create a new, deadlier, vaccine-resistant COVID strain.
Possum is tasked with stopping this. At a science lab, Possum uses violence to get information, eventually speaking with Doctor Liu. Doctor Liu reveals their head scientist, Doctor Zhao, is missing and suspects he was taken by the same people behind the new virus plot. Doctor Liu gives Possum Zhao's last known location: a train station.
At Federation Square, Possum is attacked by Kyle Rancid, a man with scrotum-like features. After a violent fight, Possum learns Kyle was hired to target the lab and was given instructions originating from a train yard. Possum forces Kyle to take him there.
On the train, Possum and Kyle discuss their motivations. Possum reveals he was supposed to see his son that day. They arrive at the Manson Trainyard and are confronted by police robots. A chaotic fight ensues, and Possum manages to board a moving train.
Inside the train, a PA system reveals the antagonist is a giant, deformed bat named Camazotz. Camazotz kidnapped Doctor Zhao and orchestrated the events. His motive is revenge for the bat population decimated during the initial pandemic. He plans to create a super-COVID by consuming Zhao and then spreading it.
Possum fights Camazotz on and outside the train. Camazotz reveals the train is carrying explosives destined for the Chinese embassy. Possum eventually kills Camazotz by using his axe and a police robot. The train crashes near a station.
In the epilogue, Possum talks to Mendelsohn, revealing the bizarre nature of the threat. Possum then meets his estranged son, Travis Scott, and his mother, Cheryl. He has a brief, emotional interaction with his son, gives him a weapon as a symbolic gesture, and then leaves. The film ends with Possum committing suicide in a public toilet while stock footage of people enjoying the end of lockdowns plays.
