Michael Kallio at an event for Hatred of a Minute (2002)
The Nutty Professor meets Young Frankenstein if told by Ed Wood! A 'long lost sci-fi film' from the 50's, finally, has been recovered! Aliens from Mars come to Earth and force a mad scientist to 'create' a 'chick magnet' to lure women so, they may take them to Mars because... MARS NEEDS WOMEN, of course! See infamous filmmaker, Orton's Z. Creswel's, "missing classic" for the first time. Can Rusty save Mitzy from the fiendish, Frankenstein-ish clutches of, Fez Fleckman, the hippest cat in town? Will martians kidnap all of Earth's women and send them back to Mars? Can Fez keep his mutant identity hidden? Find out in MUTANT SWINGER FROM MARS!!! Mutant Swinger from Mars is a 2009 Science fiction comedy film written, produced and directed by Michael Kallio. A cross between Young Frankenstein, The Nutty Professor and all of Ed Wood's movies (with a SPLASH of This is Spinal Tap), the film pays homage to all things sci-fi, horror and comedy. The film features the acting debut of Jack White (pre-White Stripes and Cold Mountain) of The White Stripes, The Raconteurs and The Dead Weather.
