Plot
A global cataclysm occurs which leads to the end of the world and has survivors struggling for their lives, while a US government agency called the “Institute for Human Continuity” attempts to use ships to ensure the survival of the human race.
The film is inspired by several hypotheses that state that the ancient Mayan predicted a doomsday event will occur sometime around the 2012 northern hemisphere winter solstice.
Production
Director Roland Emmerich and composer-producer Harald Kloser co-wrote a spec script titled 2012, which was marketed to major studios in February 2008. Nearly all studios met with Emmerich and his representatives to hear the director’s budget projection and story plans, a process that the director had previously gone through with the films Independence Day (1996) and The Day After Tomorrow (2004). The film was shopped around with a production budget of $200 million. Read more …

Minotaur is a 2006 horror film, directed by Jonathan English. It stars Tom Hardy, Tony Todd, Ingrid Pitt and Rutger Hauer. It was filmed in Luxembourg.
Plot
Long ago in the Iron Age a shadow loomed over a lonely village of Thens. For every five years, eight village youths are stolen from their families to the capital of the Minos Empire and placed in the underground labyrinth to be a sacrifice to the Minotaur, the Minoan god. Theo, haunted by the loss of his love, Fion, in an earlier sacrifice, is convinced that the beast is not a deity and that his love still lives within the labyrinth.
His father Cyrnan, the village leader, tries to reason with Theo not to go but Theo is driven by blind rage and made his way in with seven other youths to be sacrificial lambs. However, Theo intends to kill the Minotaur. Along with his fellow captives, Tyro, Danu, Vena, Morna, Didi, Ziko and Cyrnan, they are placed in the labyrinth by King Deucalion, with the youths slaugthered one by one by the Minotaur.
However, Theo is aided by Deucalion’s sister, Queen Raphaella, who reveals that her mother gave herself to the most disturbing actions to create a living god, the Minotaur. As the Minotaur grows, so does its appetite when it murdered Deucalion’s brother, resulting with the human sacrifices to appense the Minotaur while ensuring Minos’s surival.
Theo along the way discovers the labyrinth is connected to an underground vent and Tyro tempts the Minotaur to crash into one of the vents, but is unsuccessful, as the Minotaur eats him alive. Theo then tempts the Minotaur and in the process, the Minotaur breaks his left horn, but continues to charge after Theo. Read more …

C.S.Lewis’ Narnia Chronicles Based on Medieval Astrology, Says Scholar
August 28, 2009 / 10254
The theme of C.S. Lewis’ ‘The Chronicles of Narnia’ is based on the seven planets forming the heavens in medieval astrology, says a scholar whose theory has been examined in a BBC documentary.
The theory, proposed by Reverend Dr Michael Ward, has come after more than 50 years of literary and theological speculation arguing whether Lewis formed the classic children literature bearing a particular pattern in mind or painted his characters and incidents randomly, reports the Daily Telegraph.
In his book Planet Narnia: The Seven Heavens in the Imagination of CS Lewis, Ward has claimed that Lewis, a leading medieval scholar who never revealed the hidden theme behind the series, had based the theme of each of the book on the basis of the characteristics traced to the seven planets.
The books, the first of which has seen a film adaptation in 2005, have already been debated to work on two levels: the fantasy narrative that has made the series a favourite amongst generations of children, and the Christian liaison that sees the lion Aslan as a representation of Christ.
According to Norman Stone, director and producer of the documentary ‘The Narnia Code’, the theory has been the “best explanation yet” to offer insight into the hidden theme behind the seven fantasy novels for children. Read more …

Comments
ALGOL is a sci-fi morality tale from the Germans following WWI. It is much closer in style to CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI than to the impending works of Lang and Murnau. ALGOL has some interesting Expressionist tendencies, all aimed at the tragic life of the main character, Robert Werne, played by Emil Jannings.
The most interesting part of the film is it’s science fiction core. An alien from a far away star is beamed to earth and meets Robert Werne. It is very much in vein of the “selling your soul to the devil” films that were popular at this time - in fact, the star, Algol is called a ‘devil star’. The alien promises Werne an energy source that is far beyond his drudging work of shoveling coal. From this incredible secret, Werne becomes the most powerful man in the world - providing the world with the energy current it needs. Sort of like, say, the Bill Gates story. Unlike Gates, however, there is no happiness in the ends of these means. Read more …
