If you’re an H.P. Lovecraft fan, or if you’ve just heard passing references to Cthulhu and have always wondered what the heck it was all about, then you can’t miss this independent short film adaptation of “The Call of Cthulhu”. Unlike many other films that have been written based on...
Happy 50th anniversary to the longest running sci-fi series of all time and space! It all began on November 23rd, 1963, on BBC One with the first episode of Doctor Who, An Unearthly Child, in grainy black and white, staring the first Doctor, William Hartnell. Celebrating 50 years of Doctor...
This could very well be the coolest PC case. The Lian Li PC-CK101L — it’s a locomotive engine. No really. It is. And it moves too. There’s an article about it here, and you can even buy it on New Egg.
Auctioned at Christies, this pair of singing bird pistols displays phenomenal early 19th century work in clockwork automata. Apparently there are only 4 other such pistols in existence. These are pure works of art, and pure genius! And no, they are not actual “working” guns.
Check out this short independent steampunk film, Airlords of Airia. Although the dialog is weak, and the English dubbing not so good, overall it’s a neat little 12 minute piece. It’s also just part one, apparently, and I guess they’ll be looking for more crowdfunding over at their site.

If you ever wanted to know what the skeletal structure and musculature of a pegasus, siren/mermaid, satyr, minotaur, or harpy would look like, then look no further than this mesmerizing tome! And here as an amazingly...
At last, one of science fiction’s greatest classics (modern classics anyway) comes to the big silver screen! Come this November, I think we’ll be seeing what a real far future space war would be like. Orson Scott Card is said to be a co-producer, so here’s hoping that Ender’s Game...
The latest trailer for Thor 2 is looking pretty good!
In 1980, Carl Sagan’s Cosmos aired on PBS — a phenomenal and ground breaking science show which brought knowledge of the universe to millions (or dare I say… “Billions and Billions…”). In 2014, Cosmos shall return again, hosted by famed astronomer Neil deGrasse Tyson. Check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBTd9–9VMI
