Short film: Flesh Computer
If the title doesn’t give you a clue – this short film is a little freaky at times. A cybernetic pet project (perhaps a cybernetic pet) of a handyman in a decaying apartment complex is put at risk by a pair of thugs. As a result the handyman is forced to take a stand and […]

Do you suspect that sci-fi book fans will tend to be more critical of movies than everyone else? Here’s what […]
Sneakily gripping: A review of Robotics; Notes parts 1 and 2
This is a review of both parts of Robotics;Notes. I was able to watch both parts in quick succession because of a hurt foot and compulsory residence on the sofa. It makes a big difference to the series. Part 1 (episodes 1 to 11) are great but give the impression of a carefully paced, feel […]
Short film: Bag Man
A short sci-fi from A TWIN (thing) – that’s Jonathan and Josh Baker. This is a sci-fi although the slow start may leave you wondering what’s going on. We follow a young American boy, discover he’s skipping school and carrying a bag somewhere. Stick with it. Want to watch something else? This teleport link will […]
