GM Inspiration: The legend of Bet She’an
This is a nicely animated and paced short movie about the fall of man. Some sort of apocalypse has triggered a change in man and, as a race, we’re morphing into large crows. This is the story of one man, a sculptor and perhaps the last human left, trying to leave a lasting trace of […]
Short Film: Windmills
This is a graduation movie made at the Georges Melies school and which won Best Animated Film at Boston Sci-Fi in 2012. It’s the story of a young woman in a horrible world filled with ruin, dark and rain. Her father can barely stand to do anything after the death of his wife. Together, however, […]
Short Film: Night of Little Dead
This is a little known classic from Halloween 2011. It’s only had 50,000 views which is remarkable given the quality corn on display here and the all star line-up. The stars here really are impressive; Bill Moseley as Kickstand, Adam Savage as Dan, Penn Jillette as Dave-O, Martin Klebba as Little Dead, James Hurley as […]

This is a fan-made film inspired by Half-Life. The usual disclaimers apply; no affiliation, no copyright threat and the filmmakers would love it if the attack lawyers stayed at home. On the subject of staying at home; this is one day in which the workers at the Black Mesa Research Facility wished they had stayed […]
Short film: Batman – Puppet Master
Harvey Dent is dead. Someone has helped Zsasz escape from Arkham Asylum. FBI agent Edward Nigma has arranged a meeting with Scarface, Gotham’s newest crime boss. This fan film was released back in 2012 but is still worth watching, especially if you’ve not seen it before. There’s some strong acting in here and perhaps a […]
Short film: Kin (GM Inspiration)
This short film, one of the first Kin Fables, reminds me of the RPG Beyond the Supernatural. I’m not sure why. Sure; there are supernatural elements in it but surely the project could remind me equally of Kult or a Cthulhu game? This is a Five Knights Production, a film by Seb and Ben McKinnon […]
Short film: Disarm
This short film from Andrew Kelleher is set in the new future and at a timw when robotic prosthetic limbs have become more powerful than natural ones – and therefore banned. The film, Disarm stars Scott Daigle and Aaron Alexander as a PR guy and a cop sent to repo the newly unlawful limbs.
