science fiction

The bridge between imagination and technological advancement, where the dreamer’s vision predicts change, and foreshadows a futuristic reality. Science fiction has the ability to become “science reality”.

Star Crash
Star Crash is a wonky, bottom-feeder Star Wars rip-off from 1978, with an ensemble cast of cult movie icons, including Marjoe “Mausoleum” Gortner, Caroline Munro, Joe “Maniac” Spinell, Christopher Plummer, and—by God—the Hoff himself, David Hasselhoff, pre-"Knight Rider," pre-"Baywatch," but still every bit the sexy-bad muthafucka.

Expedition 33
The name Expedition 33 does tend to have that sci-fi movie feeling, but this is an expedition that really happened. It was a vital stage in human space flight aboard the station. Members from various countries participated during this mission to perform high-class scientific research.

Are We Becoming Cyborgs? A Look at Humanity’s Future in a Tech-Obsessed World
The last 100 years have been downright crazy when it comes to technological progress. I mean, for thousands of years, humans slowly invented things, but nothing, nothing compares to what we’ve seen in just a single century. We went from horse-drawn carriages to landing on the moon, and now we’ve got phones that can basically do everything… except, unfortunately, make us a sandwich.

The Good Ghost
"A ouija board is like a microwave. Too instant for those who can not use it right and then blows up. People want to have fun with spirit connects like a board game," Clementine explained.

Blade Runner . Top Story - December 2025.
These days, androids might very well dream of electric sheep. In 1982, not so much. Blade Runner takes place six years in our past, as per the present timeline. Other timelines, we don't know. Perhaps there, Replicants rule the lives of meat sacks, and the Imperial Skinjobs are all as beautiful as Rutger Hauer or Daryl Hannah are in Blade Runner.

What if we travel at the speed of light?
Imagine strapping yourself into a spaceship, its engines thrumming with power, and leaving Earth behind. You accelerate, faster and faster, slicing through the void of space. What would the universe look like if you approached the speed of light? How would reality warp before your eyes?

Star Trek: "The Tholian Web"
The Tholian Web is one of those classic episodes of TOS that transcend television. The ghostly image of a Kirk (William Shatner) caught between dimensions, waiting breathlessly (at the end literally so) for the transporter to beam him back to the ship, while the Tholian ship weaves a “Web” around the Enterprise, stranded in space as it is due to the fear of “disrupting” the dimensional shift, is one that sticks with the viewer like a good, heady shot of Saurian brandy. Oh, with such bold and breathtaking adventure awaiting, what’s an old spacer to do?

Stereo and Crimes of the Future
"Jomkin suggests that there must evolve a novel sexuality for a new species of man." — Crimes of the Future Before he became the cinematic master of body horror, David Cronenberg was an experimental student filmmaker who turned out works very much in line with the same sort of fixations explored almost exclusively by J.G. Ballard, whose Crash he later adapted into a film, in 1997. His early films, his first two, Stereo (1969) and Crimes of the Future (1970), explore film technique in documenting the huge, yawning architectural environment of an unspecified hospital or research facility, relegating the performers of the film to almost being secondary actors in a drama defined by geometrical shape—relegating them to the roles of insectile life, pursuing strange, even inscrutable actions, ostensibly being filmed by the watchful, clinical, and coldly detached robotic eye of the viewer, who becomes the de facto research assistant to the director, who seems to have made this film by asking his performers to improvise within the framework of derangement. What was he exploring? one wonders. The environment itself dwarfs the humanity of the filmic subjects, overpowering them in its specter of geometrical dominance and dimension.

"No pity! No remorse! No fear!”
Trillions of micro-organisms, falling like dust motes, settled over the once bustling Hive City like a slow rolling fog, blurring anything beyond a few skyscrapers into a haze of bleak gray. The scent of mold and dead things, the echoes of what my rebreather missed, filled my nostrils. I tried to get a signal to the marines. Nothing. My arm shook as I tried to broadcast any message, but it was no use. Damn it. The spores must block coms. The scouting party had been split for roughly twelve minutes now. The atmospheric interference was too intense for any chance of rescue, but if I could reach higher ground...

Revenge Of The Words
I used to be a pilot. I flew missions in World War Two, dammit. Later, I flew for a major airline. Then I served in the police department in Los Angeles. That got me into my lifelong love for writing. Scripts, mostly. I was not too shabby. You might have seen some of my work. But that was so long ago. So very long ago. Now? Let's just say I'm not the man I used to be. Things have changed so much since those heady days of early television. Back then the best writing in my estimation had something important to say. We wrote morality plays disguised as space opera. It mattered then. Our takes on our world slipped past the network execs because we set it in the far future. My greatest achievement was almost derailed by the executives because they thought my script was too smart for the twelve year old mind. So, I rewrote it and kept the original pilot within. It got on the air, and the moral still stood. Things have changed so much. Even my own profession has seen such transformations that I hardly recognize what people are writing now.
