  • This award-winning fan-produced short film is a prequel to Tim Burton’s Batman (1989)!
    Winner: Best U.S. Fan Film, Best Performances, Best Lighting, and more!
    Sergeant Frank Kelly is one of the last good cops in Gotham and his life is about to change. Take a trip back to the mean streets of Gotham when “the Bat” was just a rumor chased by reporter Alexander Knox, and the city was powerless against crime bosses like Carl Grissom. The Oath stars Jerry Morgan, Oz Keenum, Chris Konke, and Michael Stumbo, with Guillermo Mejía as Batman.
    THE OATH was written, shot, and directed by lifelong Batman fan Johnny K., whose first film, “The Killer of Grassy Ridge” ( • THE KILLER OF GRASSY R... ), was selected for more than 50 festivals worldwide, winning Best U.S. Short Film, Best Debut, Best Director, Best Cinematography, and more. THE OATH is a labor of love. A non-profit passion project created BY Batman fans, FOR Batman fans!

      The best stories from the Batman universe are ALWAYS the everyday people living in Gotham.
      There was a great Joker story about some guy who was working for him and seeing everything from his perspective. I wish I could remember the name of it. It showed how people just have to do a job and that job might be with a terrible person like the Joker.

      Exactly. Bruce Wayne is essential to solve the problems Batman can't.
      Batman fights the practical implications and prevents the direct consequences of evildoing (apprehending criminals and conserving evidence of crimes, and directly protecting human lives by preventing further crimes from being committed by desperate people choked from the chance to choose a better life), while Wayne fights the roots of the problems (through philanthropy, social housing, helping expose corrupt economic groups, taking over companies manages by seedy bureaucrats, and providing financial support to groundbreaking technology and medical facilities)

      But . . . the sergeant DID take the money, and as such exhibited crooked behavior. He made the wrong choice, as Batman later admonishes him. If he hadn't taken the bribe, and the gangster started to rough him up (while possibly also verbally threatening his wife, which would have shown him to be even more dangerous since he did his homework on the sergeant), THEN Batman intervenes and takes the gangster down . . . and then perhaps Batman makes a brief comment that Gordon is not the only good cop on the force before grappling away . . . Such a small change would have heightened the dramatic tension, given a more imperative impetus for Batman to get involved . . . and it would have shown another bright spot of hope within the GCPD. Then, when the sergeant later receives the check from the Wayne Foundation, it would make it more seem that he earned it by turning away from being crooked - and was rewarded by Gotham's dark knight (in two ways). The only other thing was the newspaper article regarding the organized crime task force. It says that it is currently being assembled, while at the end of the same paragraph it says that this team is "proving to be a formidable force." How is this possible if it is still being formed? I had to read it a few times to see if I missed any nuance about it, but no, it doesn't make sense in full context. Those things aside, I appreciated the attention to detail in the sets used, the tributes to lines and action from the 1989 film, and the general tone. A lot was packed in there!

      An actual Gotham series would be cool. Burton managed to make a character out of the city just like Scorsese with NY in his movies. Something that’s cool because when DC had proper and decent people working on the comics that was a thing for the comics too, even the asylum is a character itself.

      @@KaoticaStudios Yeah awesome - the Batman really captured the physicality of Keaton's batman. It's excellent.
      I like that you capture the white smoke. But you missed the red-green. Batman's eyes are green. You could sample the red Axis chemical from that movie and when Frank looks up, he sees that on the rooftop. Another nice touch would have been a rose in a vase on the kitchen table for red and green. Frank is fighting his own battle of duality. It's a nice touch that Frank is not a hero. At end he has the reputation. But still this is excellent.
      Burton uses black and white as well as red and green motifs. In fact, prices song even says it "Black and white. Red and green. The funky as thing you've ever seen ..."
      If you do part 2, what would be nice is to see Frank actual get shot to save commissioner Gordon's life. He doesn't die -- but this time he's not leading and living a lie. He is a hero. When he is in the hospital bed, he reads story about Gotham's Frank ... who almost lost his life in heroic act to save commissioner's life. The by line is Knox. Then cut to the same paper on a breakfast tray Alfred carries to Bruce.
      Alfred says ... Master Wayne I brought your breakfast and today's paper. I think you will appreciate the front page story. I guess one man really can be a symbol and make a difference. (Bit of Nolan's take.)
      Bruce, "Yeah Alfred ... Oh did did you ever give Knox a grant?" (A homage to first movie where Bruce said give Knox a grant - lol).

    Just watched your film, and it's the best Batman film i've seen in a long while. Thank you for not making it all Batman. I mean it's great to see how a normal cop is affected by the existence of the bat. And the actor in the lead role is terrific! Great music! More of this character in a sequel, please!

    Thoroughly enjoyed it.
    For me, the best callback was the backhand smash to the face at 9:18. A great flashback to 1989.
    To quote Batman, "I'll be watching." 😁

    You’ve pinned the absolute essentials of Batman with this fan film, mate. As dark, terrifying and vengeful as Batman is, there is such deep compassion & sympathy for people that Bruce Wayne refuses to lose sight of.
    Batman may wage war on criminals, but it’s his devotion to helping people in need that makes him a true hero. And you’ve nailed it perfectly with this production. Great work by you and all cast & crew involved. More please. 👍🏻

    Only thing I'd point out as something that could've been worked out better is the scene where Batman says "There's always a choice" then leaves, then comes back for the money, then drops the smoke bomb (to emulate one of the scenes in '89). Like, the whole comeback stuff, plus dropping the smoke bomb for one single cop who posed no threat -nor was the Batman cornered (which is what happened in the original film), was like a bit of overkill, imho. Other than that, superb fan film, and calls for a series!

But this Fan-film is Based on my all time Favorite Batman 89 Micheal Keaton, and it has the Tone Right!
