3D Trailer: Station 21
With a plot that revolves around a killer holographic Santa, Station 21’s storyline and acting is decidedly B-movie; still, this 3D trailer is definitely in your face and out of this world.

Creepy yet hilarious, Daniel Scheinert and Dan Kwan’s Swingers mixes great comedic timing with ridiculously uncomfortable moments; in otherwords, a true theatre of the absurd.
Due out early 2010, Battle of the Brick: Built for Combat is a 25 minute LEGO Halo short film made by Alex Kobb; it recreates the Zanzibar map with an epic battle of Red vs. Blue.
Despite a euphemistic title, Wizard Smoke is pure (yet surreal) skateboarding heaven; it was filmed with three Panasonic HVX200s and uses tempera paint and flour for the smoke.
If you ever wondered what happened post-Carl in Up, Pixar explains all; the short film George and AJ shows things going downhill, underground, and interplanetary. Thanks, Thorir!
Guns ‘n Gardens makes the best of public access TV and societal collapse with How to Survive the Zombie Apocalypse; it’s filled with DIY tips on weapons, first aid, and of course, gardening.
Slightly NSFW: Jeremie Duval’s Pulp Fiction and Mario mashup does Tarantino proud with guns and gasoline in place of fireballs; who needs Luigi when you have Travolta in overalls?
Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed: Lineage short film reaches its conclusion with Episodes 2 and 3, with Giovanni traveling first to Venice and then finally to Rome. Watch all three episodes here.

We liked Astro Boy, but it may have done better at the box office had it been like Panic Attack: this hybrid CG/live action short film features giant robots with a hatred for all things Uruguay.
We’re surprised that Pigeon Impossible isn’t a Pixar film: this high flying short was created by Lucas Martell and shows that a bird in the case is worth about a billion in the bush.
To call The Astronomer’s Dream trippy is a galactic understatement, but we’re slack-jawed over its amazing details; you can support indie director Malcolm Sutherland by buying the DVD.

David King’s use of an overhead projector to shoot ZZZZOMBIES seems gimmicky at first glance, but this stop motion film is surprisingly tongue-in-brain. Warning: slightly gory.
