"I want something more from you... I want more. Give me more." Vimeo has debuted an official trailer for a compelling sci-fi short film titled A Helical, the first official short film made by Irish filmmaker Marcus McMahon. This 30 minute short will be available to watch from Vimeo in May, but in the meantime, this 60 second trailer is quite an enticing tease. This mesmerizing, abstract film features an experimental narrative: "A lone traveller, from another dimension, arrives on a mysterious yet familiar planet." The film also stars Marcus McMahon as "A Helical" (helical just means having the form of a helix; spiral) along with Keith Chanter and Sanna Kelly. This trailer definitely doesn't explain what's going on, where he is, or what he wants, but it still got my attention. I'm always curious about unique indie sci-fi. Keep an eye out for this one. Here's the first official trailer (+ poster...

I’ve got a great trailer you've gotta watch for an upcoming sci-fi film called Somnus. The movie was directed by Chris Reading from a script he co-wrote with Russell Owen.
The story follows the crew of “an aging cargo ship on their final mission working the monotonous Earth-Mars shipping route. Malfunctions aboard the ship force a change of course to Somnus, a remote asteroid colony.

Reading also wanted to use practical effect techniques to make the...
