Keep your eyes on your local Fox channel because a special promotional short film for Red Dead Redemption will appear on the network at Midnight, Saturday, May 29. So what's so special and so important about this short film. It was created by John Hillcoat, who you may know better from his awesome films The Road and The Proposition. Hillcoat uses the actual game to create this film and provide a story for this short film based on Rockstar's open-ended Wild West action game.
