For thousands of years (give or take), the USSR was our mortal enemy, what with their grey clothes and drab efficiency.  But ever since Ronald Reagan personally punched down the Berlin wall with his bare fists, more and more it seems like Russians are actually just like us with funny haircuts minus human emotions.  And that’s what this trailer for Forbidden Reality is like.  It’s all in Russian, but all the slow motion, bullet-time, and Matrix-y special effects seem familiar and comforting, like eating warm apple pie on your cowboy horse.  Their synopsis:

Based on the novel by very popular sci-fi writer Vasiliy Golovachev, the film tells a story of an agent betrayed by his partner when transporting new psychic weapon. Believed to be dead, he escapes and takes new identity so he can live in peace far away. But later he is forced to return to Moscow to confront a secret organization, led by his former partner, that attempts to use the dangerous weapon in order to take control over the country. Now he is a key figure in the battle between forces of darkness and light. [QuietEarth]

My synopsis: A dude transforms into a lion!  OO WHA-AA AA-AA!
