Warren’s Vortex on SBS Viceland and SBS on Demand S1E3 and S1E4 – From the makers of Wellington Paranormal, comes Warren’s Vortex, a genre-hopping Kiwi comedy about family, time-travel and hot sauce.
Maaka Pohatu (Wellington Paranormal) stars as Warren, a lovable suburban dad, who has an interdimensional vortex in his shed. He’s managed to keep it secret until the day of his daughter Lucy’s (Louise Jiang) 18th birthday, when she falls into it.
Warren follows and both are hurled into wildly different versions of their home, each more bizarre than the last. From a dystopian world of intelligent refrigerators, to a cardboard city, to a phone-zombie apocalypse, father and daughter stumble through each universe with mismatched skills, emotional baggage, but an ever-deepening bond.
Season One, Episode Three:
Warren and Lucy land in a pastel copy of their home, with a price tag in the trillions and the estate agent is a robot clone of their mate, Ian. Fleeing an army of these real estate androids, they manage to escape in a fake cardboard car. But they soon discover a shantytown of displaced residents—including a punked-out Hine and all their mates.
Season One, Episode Four:
Warren and Lucy arrive home to find their street crawling with ‘mombies’ – friends and neighbours turned into mindless phone zombies by a mobile game. Even Hinemoa’s succumbed. They seek out conspiracy theorist Darren, who confirms the game has taken over Aotearoa, New Zealand.
