First trailer & images from Syfy’s ‘Blood Drive’

First announced way back in the summer of 2015, the Syfy/Universal co-production Blood Drive is a high-octane, over-the-top scripted series in the classic grindhouse movie tradition. Set in a near-apocalyptic future, the 13-episode series centers around LA’s last good cop who is forced to join a twisted, gory cross-country death race – with cars powered by blood (Blood Car meets Death Race anyone?). Blood Drive stars Alan Ritchson, Thomas Dominique, Christina Ochoa, Marama Corlett, and Colin Cunningham; the shows comes from James Roland (Weed) who is a co-executive producer on the show.

The official synopsis:

Los Angeles in the near future: where water is as scarce as oil and climate change keeps the temperature at a cool 115 degrees in the shade. It’s a place where crime is so rampant that only the worst violence is punished and where Arthur Bailey (Ritchson) — the city’s last good cop — runs afoul of the dirtiest and meanest underground car rally in the world, Blood Drive. The master of ceremonies is a vaudevillian nightmare, the drivers are homicidal deviants, and the cars run on human blood.

Buckle up, lube up, and prepare for everything you know about cable television to blow up!
