Experimental artist Matt Busch has directed his first feature film, the strangely charming, low budget, Aladdin meets the future flick, Aladdin 3477-1: The Jinn of Wisdom. This unique take on the Aladdin legend takes the young thief and beggar into a far future where major cities now float in the sky over the slums that remain on the ground and robots keep the classes divided by acting as future law enforcement. In this bizarre mix is Aladdin, played by Erik Steele as a schemer with a heart of gold.
The story follows Aladdin as he is recruited to steal a legendary Genie’s lamp from a dangerous and cursed cave. All the while, Aladdin is chased after and protected by Oomi (Lin Zy), a homeless martial arts expert who has, for reasons we are not privy to, dedicated her life to protecting Aladdin. We can tell that Oomie is desperately in love while Aladdin is both unaware of Oomie’s feelings, to a hostile degree, and unworthy of such loyalty. Oomie is the best character in the movie and the main reason to see Aladdin 3477-1: The Jinn of Wisdom.
