Fire Ants 3D is a very interesting documentary stereo 3D movie by 3DigitalVision, the same people behind the 3D movie Alligator Kingdom that I’ve posted about about a yeah and a half ago here on the blog. The movie is about one of the most successful creatures that has ever lived – the fire ant, and it includes a lot of 3D macro photography exploring the secret world of the fire ants, creatures that are apparently becoming a global problem. You can watch the official trailer embedded above from YouTube in 3D or download the video from the link below, it is in Side by Side format, half horizontal resolution, so don’t forget to select 16:9 aspect ratio when opening it in the 3D Vision Player or the Stereoscopic Player. You are welcome to share your comments about the video after watching it…
Defending Maldito is a short comedy movie in stereo 3D by Christian Blaze, who is also plays the main character. This short was shot as a test for an upcoming feature film (political drama) entitled Through the Eye of the Needle which will also be shot in 3D, and it has turned out quite good for a test. Defending Maldito was shot using two Kodak Zi8 cameras in Side by Side, then Sony Vegas was used to edit the video, and Nvidia’s 3D Vision for the playback, so you should get best results using 3D Vision for watching it on a 3D-capable computer monitor.
The story of the short movie: “Maldito is here to visit his lawyer… what he doesn’t know about the law ends up costing him, and his lawyer, a lot more than what they bargained for, 420.”

The movie Sex & Zen: Extreme Ecstasy in 3D got the title of “the world’s first 3D erotic film”, something that may not be entirely true, but that’s another matter. This erotic 3D movie has been quite successful in Asia where it has been show in cinemas and has generated a lot of buzz in the news, however we are not going to be seeing this Chinese production anytime soon in a 3D movie theater in Europe or North America. If you are however eager to see what the movie is all about and in 3D of course, you are able to get it on Blu-ray 3D media (Hong Kong Version). It is the theatrical version that comes with 23 minutes of special features including commentaries, trailers, and several making-of featurettes, but only with Cantonese and Mandarin audio, there are English subtitles available however. The disk is region free so you should not have trouble playing it no matter where you are located.
The story of the movie:
Set in Ming-dynasty China, the film follows young scholar Wei Yangsheng as he falls for beautiful maiden Tie Yuxiang at first sight. Much in love as they are, their married life isn’t all that, and soon the sexually frustrated Wei is invited as a guest to Prince Ning’s “Pavilion of Extreme Ecstasy”, where a whole harem of naked nymphs are kept to satisfy men’s wildest fantasies. Wei begins to lose himself in lustful pursuits, however there is an inconvenient side effect: the lecherous scholar becomes so indulged in carnal pleasure that he fails to see the deadly trap set up for him…
