Production

Armstrong describes ''Sheborg Massacre'' as a neo-pulp film. "Neo-pulp lovingly embraces the most extreme, cliche, and supercilious elements of pop culture and pulp literature and puts them in a human context. SHEBORG MASSACRE itself is a 50s teen rebel flick set in a B grade sci-fi world from the early 80s, with horror style violence.

''Sheborg Massacre'' was produced by Melbourne-based production company Strongman Pictures Entertainment, and written, directed and edited by
