Bellflower is a love movie jammed in with a lot of action and adventure which shows off a Mad Max inspired flamethrower and muscle car in preparation for a global apocalypse. This car is known as Medusa.

Personally, we are not that into muscle cars but Medusa is as close as it gets to real life. It’s not high tech like Bumblebee where it can transform into a robot (which is so total awesome)… but this car is R.E.A.L!
Let’s take a look at Medusa:

It took 3 year, 30,000 volts and 3 engine blowouts to build Evan Glodell’s Doomsday machine to match the Mad Max like spec in the movie.

 

Medusa’s 455 Chevy Engine. Who said Chevys don’t work? 

 

Igniter – Medusa’s rear exhaust fire throwing 2000-psi pump sprays gasoline to feed the fire

 

True to life dashboard control – Doesn’t look that great but it’s real ok? Everything from the flame thrower to the suspensions are controlled from this panel.

 

In the trunk you will find 2 15,000-volt transformers, a modified gas tank, a fuel pump and a car battery to run Medusa. Yeah baby!

Tired of going through the same routine everyday??Flying car is the solution!!

Terrafugia Transition is priced at $227,000 and up to 100 customers have already paid a $10,000 deposit for it!! This two-seat carplane is made of carbon-fiber and it can lift off from almost any long straight road and, once in the air, has a top speed of 115 mph.

For that price of flying car, I would have to get stuck in the traffic jam my whole life to get to the office and earn that money to pay for just the Flying Car not counting the maintenance and all.
