THE BIORIFT draws inspiration from the bold, gritty narratives of films like Blade Runner, The Matrix, and Total Recall, where dystopian worlds, rogue technologies, and human resilience collided in unforgettable ways. We’re channeling the raw energy of 1990s cyberpunk culture, infused with the vibrant, larger-than-life spirit of that decade’s iconic sci-fi works. Every frame of THE BIORIFT is a tribute to the era that redefined speculative fiction, crafted with the same passion that made those stories timeless.
