ABADDON… A very dark Sci-Fi HyperShort by Ethan Lawrence #scifistory @bleedingcool #comicbook #hypershort
Today’s HyperShort is all descriptive, detailed and dark. Now we know the truth…
“Abaddon” by Ethan Lawrence
The sun, the Creator, the central body of the solar system, was the symbol of life-giving properties and the energy source of all early human existence. But the moon, or ‘Black Sun’, was the preferred source of ancient celestial power for the alien visitor. The moon ruled over the hidden processes of nature, the hollow spaces of the earth, and the movements of all the fluidic elements within and upon the earth’s surface. Among the moon’s many powers was that of influencing the minds of early developing humans, and the alien could exploit this power through illusions to distort reality.
There prevailed an almost universal belief that the physiological life of emerging Homo sapiens was linked with the moon, and the psychological implications connected with the moon were part of the allure for the alien. He had a powerfully destructive influence on life and roamed primeval earth like a vampire seeking humans to devour.
Like the moon, the alien had an immense attractive power over the forces of nature – water, ice, storm lightning, a magnetic quality known to future ancients, the power to use destructive forces to his own ends. Also, human bodies, and the bodies of all living things, constituted as they were largely of liquid elements, were affected by the power the alien could generate from the moon. Even the developing human brain, a mass of semi-liquid pulp, could be stirred in strange ways by the impulses of the seemingly diabolical visitor. The alien also exploited the waning and waxing powers of the moon, and could sometimes decrease the God-sun’s powers and energy. And like the changes and phases of the moon, the alien had the power to metamorphose, to change his appearance, to alter his facial structure, to elongate his limbs, to blend like a chameleon.
The use of thoughts was the alien’s destructive corruption of the ancient super science of his world. He had managed to materialize thoughts in the minds of impressionable humans, which accorded him power that only a few humans would ever really understand through the many ages to come. The alien used thought manipulation to create either subtle or disastrous effects. It could alter an ordinary person’s belief or cause physical pain within their bodies or even set off an explosive force by ultra forceful frequency vibration. But the alien had another weapon, which was far more insidious, a trident, three-pronged spear unlike any the universes had ever seen. When activated, it could energize natural forces of the moon into currents under the alien’s direct control. It was also a molecular converter, allowing the alien to alter his physiognomy and to transport him instantly to other positions in space and time. The alien was dark, not of complexion, but of aura. He was an evil lamb, a disastrous curse of the spirit. The visitor was all things wrong and to be despised, as he was wrapped in a deceptive skin of replication. He was in human terms, a man approaching thirty-five, each feature borrowed from a different classic reprobate of bygone alien cultures. His eyes were the key; they seemed of animal origin, almost, but not quite, double lidded, opening to reveal a rubbed charcoal color. They blazed and died at will, like an imploding star. His hands were contradiction to human configuration, beautifully shaped but with long tapered fingers and dangerously curved nails that looked more like talons. The alien’s grasp could reach through a warp in time, soundless, but for the small chill of air.
Millions of years later, an obscure Hebrew word would be found in the Old Testament denoting “the angel of the abyss” – a reference to this ancient demon known as Abaddon. In various other Testaments, he was known as “the father of lies” and “the venom of God.” In Revelations 20:10, he was simply described as – the Devil.

SHockingly Awesome GODZILLA Full Trailer 1… #godzilla #gojira
If you watch this a couple of times, you realize it has a very familiar Chris Nolan reality feel to it. It should be the defining element that makes this movie a rock solid romp. Not to mention that Walter White is in it, too. That’s just plain nuts.

Today’s Short… STEAMSPEED – STEAMTRAIN F1 RACERS… #f1 #racing #racecar #steamtrain #train
Although it’s clear that this would make a great Disney ride, this short has a fun and unique vision with Steamtrains as F1 Cars. Mix a little bit of Star Wars Podracing and the Old West and you’ve got a great short.

BRECKENRIDGE Day 4… Snowmobiling the Rockies #colorado #snowmobile #adventure #rockies
A pretty incredible day, starting off with a drive deep up into the Rockies to White Mountain for a Snowmobile Adventure. We landed at about 12:30 via shuttle at a base plateau, grabbed our Snow-Motorcycles and then headed up into some of the most incredible white country I’ve ever seen. These machines are fast…
Although the photos don’t really do the scenery justice, the gratitude and humility I feel in how small we are in relation to the beauty of this planet staggers me. I would immediately put this on the top of your list of things to experience. You will never forget it.
Today… it’s Chill Day. Gotta rest up a bit as we head back to Malibu tomorrow and start production on several 5MINUTE DRIVES. Did you see the latest episode with Ray Abruzzo? Check it out. He’s awesome.

BRECKENRIDGE Day 3… Snowboarding Peak 9 and not crashing @ChristySports
The good news is that we took on Peak 9 @ Breckenridge, plus some black diamond Peak 8 and didn’t crash. A first. The bad news is that my body feels like a meat sack of soar goo. (Pretty good visual, eh?) But, it was awesome.
Had a great lunch at the top of the mountain (@12,500ft with a grip of peeps from everywhere!) And then hit the slopes over and over. Wasted…
If you ever land in Breck, you have to hook up with Kyle @ Christy Sports Rentals. Great group of people and will get you whatever you need.
