A very cool science fiction indie is being shot right now in the Bay Area that deals with how the future will be shaped by Bush-era politics, a mythologized history, and the beauty of virtual reality.

If you see a Dollhouse headline over the next couple of days, exclaiming how the season is getting its finale episode cut, relax. This is a nasty brand of journalism designed to scare the bejaysus out of you while dragging you into the article.

Echo and some of her friends awaken with their original personalities, but no memory of how they came to be in the Dollhouse. Each doll deals with the lingering issues just below the surface of their consciousness.

There’s a solid little teaser trailer for the indie sci-fi flick Hunter Prey that’s just shown up on the web. Check it out, before it sneaks up behind you and strangles you.

This isn’t an April Fool’s Joke. It’s for real, and now we’re asking whether it should be a reality or not. Are you thinking Yes or Aw Hell Naw?
