Electric Dreams

It was time to treat myself to another short film from Philip K Dick's Electric Dreams. This is the second to last one I have to watch, and... I've been watching them in completely random order, because non-sequential viewing of independent things should be encouraged. This short film begins with a woman dressed in business attire driving away from a city, observing a missile going toward said city. It turns out its…

Nothing screams safety more than being stopped by armed guards when you attempt to enter a location. This is exactly how *Safe and Sound* opens. A girl and her mother are coming into the city, and it abundantly clear she doesn't fit in. First, there's the juxtaposition of fashion, and the complete lack of any *access.* Foster (Annalise Basso) is our protoganist. She's new... to everything. Her first day at school is…

With a title like *Kill all Others*, it is not a surprise that the film opens with the word productivity, and capitalism, and well, America. Advertising holograms are everywhere. Then there's a bus ride filled with political news. A single candidate for an election. People look on with disinterest. Then the workplace. The chatter, "You're depressed because you haven't purchased anything in a while." His coworkers te…

The thing that has impressed me the most about Philip K Dick's Electric Dreams series is that production values for each and every one of these short movies is maintained at an incredibly high level. They're gloriously rich with detail, costumes, gadgets and sets that each episode is full of visual splendour, and "Real Life" is no exception. Sarah is a traumatised cop. She looks at the world through the eyes of a pe…

I didn't expect to see Steve Buscemi in Philip K Dick's Electric Dreams, but here I am. In *Crazy Diamond*, he portrays a character (*another one called Ed)*) who works at a lab that *grows* quantum consciousness. This premise is enough to get me hooked, even if those two words in isolation both need lots and lots of definition. He has a dream of escaping from the coastal erosion impacting his sea-side property, and…

Philip K Dick's Electric Dreams maintains surprisingly good production values throughout - even if "The Commuter" starts with a great snapshot of contemporary, budget British life, with Tesco kitchen stuff all over the place, and a renewed tea-bag, fresh from the bin. In fact, this opening is a great snapshot of the parts of British life I remember - even if I was only there for a week - and only stayed in a hotel,…

Impossible Planet opens with an astonishing vista of a purple super nova, and extends what would be a normal visit to a place like an aquarium or museum to the cosmos. Only, the capitalism of the historical institute is progressed to a natural conclusion. Nothing is sacred. Everywhere can be a tourist attraction, for the right price. This is a story that shows a distant future of space tourism. A time in the future…

# The Hoodmaker Image Source Now that I have decided to watch the remaining episodes of Philip K Dick's Electric Dreams in their broadcast / series order, I get to experience the rest of the stories that I have not yet *read.* As a result, these will all be new material to me, and I'm excited to get through more Philip K Dick as I slowly work my way through his novel, *Ubik.* I am savouring that book, I'm enjoying i…

Promo image from Amazon Prime Video Service Since Philip K Dick is one of my favourite Authors (and that assessment is based on a single book alone, the venerable *Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep*) - the adaptations of some of his short stories into single episode screenplays existing was a fact I was very happy to become aware of. *Philip K Dick's Electric Dreams* is a show that does exactly this - and presents…

Many years ago a friend recommended this series to me and since then it was on my list, until finally this year I decided to watch it, the truth, it took me longer than I expected, Philip K. Dick's work is incredible and no one can say otherwise, and many chapters of this series did not feel Sci Fi enough for my taste, then, instead of enjoying and watching them, I kept criticizing them, not with all, not always, bu…

The theme throughout every episode is based on science fictions novels of Philip K. Dick. Every episode is very interesting and has crazy unexpected twists and turns for the characters involved. You will see many popular actors who will bring more gravitas to every episodes,…

Amazon Video's anthology series debuted on the platform for Prime members, loosely based on Philip K. Dick's works. I'm not particularly sure why I watched the fifth episode first, but it's not really something that matters given each episode is a different story with different characters; it's essentially Amazon's version of Black Mirror. Unfortunately, this episode was a struggle to watch. I found its narrative in…
