In 2013, Naishuller directed and starred in Bad Motherfucker – the music video for a Biting Elbows' hit single. Shot entirely in POV, Bad Mother Fucker became a viral online hit with over 150 million cumulative views[5] The video caught the attention of Hollywood agents, actors and directors and was praised by Darren Aronofsky.[4]
In 2015 Naishuller directed an independent feature Hardcore, later renamed Hardcore Henry. It starred Sharlto Copley and Tim Roth and was produced by Timur Bekmambetov, Inga Vainshtein Smith and Ekaterina Kononenko.
