Hologram Man or Digital Man.

I guess one is the American title, the other is for the international market, but I’m not sure which is which and don’t care enough to look it up.

Got about 40 minutes into this film before giving up and switching to the redlettermedia botw video instead. It filled in most of the gaps, and made me glad I didn’t continue. A latex suit to put over the hologram, sculpted by a scientist who could perfectly mimic stubble?

Slash Gallagher is a fantastic name for the villain though.

As for the piece I’ve written, it’s a story with another story on top, the superimposed one trying to become a murderer of the one beneath.

Just like Hologram Man and the latex suit human body.

The idea of higher text murdering lower text isn’t actually new to me, I did something similar in a long-form work called Deeper Red that I finished a while back, that I can hopefully place somewhere at some point, that I’ll probably end up putting up on here as a PDF.

Submitting to presses is a humiliation that keeps humiliating me consistently.

Whereas Psycho Holosuite almost never says no.

Okay, enough pathos, it’s time for Hologram Man.

My piece below, not the film.
