The Chronicles Of Hollow Earth : The Next Race, Trailer


The Chronicles Of Hollow Earth : The Next Race is a new indie SF film, out on DVD and with a slick Flash web site. It's made by Stewart St. John, who apparently wrote episodes of Power Rangers(!). The trailer shows an interesting look, in a world where humans are ruled by a superior race, the Ghen,  which they created. The human's world is bleak and sparse, the Ghen's world is slick and corporate. Plus there's a a few SFX shots of underground cities.

That's all I know, but I'm always happy to mention indie SF films as they intrigue me: it's a challenge: can they produce a good enough story, and overcome the expectation of trillion dollar special effects, on such a limited budget? It's possible, and can result in absolute classics like Primer, but can also result in dire abominations.
