YouTube ~ Short Sci Fi Films

Post by Whiskey 7 »

Quake 3 World I will bet some of you are into science fiction so I will raise my hand and tell you that lately I have come to enjoy short sci fi films; you guessed, found on YouTube .

I have seen a number now, approaching a hundred I'd guess and you are correct, some are rubbish, but every now and then you find one that you have to tell others about, hence this topic.

Take the time, watch this. I found it moving.
Stars Keir Dullea from 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968). He appears at the end.

- REMOVED CLIP -

Found another :smirk:

Post your choice only if your into YouTube short sci fi films.

EDIT: I removed the YouTube clip because the associated account had been terminated?

very cool :up:

It's incredible how cheap and accessible good quality CGI has become for amateurs. There's quite a bit of talent out there.


I liked this one as well. It's very short (5 mins or so) but they paint a very rich backstory with a lot of emotion in a single 5 minute conversation. The eyes do a lot of the work.

Great watch @ Whiskey7, thx for sharing!
The Idea reminds me alot of "Moontrap" (1980s b-movie with Bruce Campbell, but still one of my Sci-Fi-favorites of all time).

I don't know if I first heard about this here, but I started watching H+ on Youtube a while ago. It's a series of short episodes that are about 6 minutes each. Now they have all of the episodes in one playlist... going to pick up where I left off.

OK... I've been checking out shorts on the Dust channel. The quality varies a lot, but I liked this one the most so far...

I have a coworker with the last name"Hacker". I finally got him to watch it for Hackerman. The next day, he told me he had his sons watch it and they all loved it.

Those were great... Started poking around on the Oats Studios page and promptly found this:

If you're a fan of Sci-fi Horror (and have a strong stomach), just watch it.
