The Rideshare Killer becomes the first “every frame minted” (EFM) feature film when the producers minted all the 119,170 frames into individual 1-of-1 NFTs on the Polygon Blockchain.
Produced by Tony Greenberg, Gavin Periti, and Ashley Scott Meyers, The Rideshare Killer, starring Academy Award nominated actor Eric Roberts (The Dark Knight, The Expendables) and Tuesday Knight (A Nightmare on Elm Street 4) is a horror/ thriller feature film that explores some of the potential risks of using ridesharing services.
Each and every frame from the feature film The Rideshare Killer has been minted into an NFT for fans to collect and enjoy under the moniker “Every Frame Minted” (EFM). It’s an 83 minute film shot at 24 frames per second, so there are nearly 120,000 individual NFTs. Each NFT is a unique frame from the feature film and will only be offered once as a true 1-of-1 NFT.
While many other art forms have seen widespread adoption of NFTs, films are still very much underutilizing this new technology. The producer of The Rideshare Killer believe that minting every frame of a film into an NFT offers artists and collectors a unique opportunity.
With a huge NFT collection of over 100K, The Rideshare Killer offers horror fans a unique way of supporting the film, owning a unique collectible that could possibly appreciate in value, and being a part of the film’s legacy.
As the NFT space matures, more films will be minting every frame into an NFT. Large and small films stand to benefit from this. Large films like the Star Wars franchise already have an engaged fan base that would clamor to own a unique piece of the film. For smaller films it’s a way for fans to directly support the filmmakers as their careers rise
Producer Tony Greenberg, commented: “Over the next decade NFTs will change the independent film landscape, offering a totally unique, potentially appreciating collectible to the fans and a sustainable revenue source for artists so that they can create more art.”

A non-fungible token (NFT) is a unique digital identifier that cannot be copied, substituted, or subdivided, that is recorded in a blockchain, and that is used to certify authenticity and ownership. In addition to digital collectibles like the frames from a film, it can be used to “tokenize” real-world tangible assets like artwork and real estate, making buying, selling, and trading them more efficient while reducing the probability of fraud because of the transparency offered by blockchain technology.
