    Death In The Shadow Of The Mind-Control Towers

    Here's the first trailer for Russia's biggest science fiction epic ever, Inhabited Island. It's a Blade Runner-esque post-apocalyptic satire, based on a 1971 novel about astronaut Maxim Kammerer, who lands on a planet devastated by nuclear destruction and ruled by five "Unknown Fathers" who use mind-control towers to subdue the populace.
