Plot

Richard Butler of the Psychedelic Furs narrates this prehistoric postcard of love gone wrong between a stop-motion T-Rex and a Pterodactyl.

This one minute short was originally commissioned to be projected at the Paladium nightclub in New York City in 1993. During filming the negative was damaged and some strobing effects were added in post to hide the damage. That year the film was entered into a handful of festivals including the Tellys at which it won a finalist award, The Florida Film Festival as well as Sitges Film Festival in Spain. Fifteen years later, with the production support of Fangoria (the horror magazine) Voltaire re-transfered the original negative to HD video, re-color corrected the film, remixed the audio and created the final version of the film. The final version of Transrexia was submitted to film festivals in 2008. Over the course of 2008 the film was part of the official selection of the following festivals:
