WITH INDIE SPIRIT & OSCAR-WINNING ACTOR

PALM SPRINGS – August 30, 2010: Enemy Mind, a science fiction-style film written, produced and directed by an upstart cast and crew, is now available on DVD. The film was shot on location in the Salton Sea area of Southern California’s Imperial Valley in early 2010, and completed on a shoestring budget.

“I still can’t believe we did this with only $9,000,” marvels Xu Razer, who plays an accused futuristic terrorist in the film. “More than two-thirds of that money was spent to hire Academy Award Winning Actor Ernest Borgnine, who provides the voice for a key character in the film. I don’t know of anyone who has ever pulled off something like this on such a small budget, and we are extremely proud of the accomplishment.” Borgnine will receive a Lifetime Achievement Award at the 17th annual SAG Awards Jan 30 2011 to be broadcast on TNT and TBS.

The action takes place in the year 3074 A.D. when a prison transport ship carrying some of the galaxy’s most dangerous criminals has crash-landed on a remote planet. Only two people survive the wreck: a terrorist accused of a bombing a spacecraft and a soldier ordered to ensure the accused prisoner stands trial for his crime. Each becomes determined to control the other in the name of conviction and faith.

“We wanted so badly to make a movie that would test the boundaries of perception, reality, and ideology,” explains Razer. “The fantastic public reception of the movie has been invigorating considering all the hurdles we had to clear to finish Enemy Mind”. The 2011 Athens Sci Fi & Fantasy Film Fest held annually in Greece was very excited about making the film an official selection and LIVE magazine called it “one of the best indie sci fi movies of the year”.

Written and directed by Brennan Reed, Enemy Mind is now available for VOD at www.bigstar.tv and indieflix.com and on DVD at Amazon.com and at select Video Depot locations in Southern California. For more information or to schedule an interview, contact bnh760@aol.com or go to www.enemy-mind.com.

So one thing that really works when blogging is to compile a classic top ten list. I don’t know exactly why, but lists appeal to readers. Go to your nearest magazine shop and take a look at the front pages: all of them have lists like: four ways to loose weight, 80 things to never do in bed, 10 tips to Ubuntu etc. Our genes likes lists, it simplifies our world. I have a friend who has a list of his to-do- lists..
While reading through the many sci-fi blogs i love I found among them these top lists:
