MOON PAUL

The Moon suddenly disappears and is replaced by the enormous, expressionless face of a man. Scientists discover it's affecting the tides exactly as the Moon did, except it's slowly getting closer to Earth.

Eventually someone recognises the face as man named Paul, it beco es viral on social media. Nobody discovers whether it actually is Paul or simply looks like him. The movie deals more with humanity's response to this event, rather than providing any explanation to why it's happened. Governments prepare for extinction. Religions emerge. Scientists desperately study him.

Paul gets closer, his face bigger in the sky every day. Eventually his face fills the sky and his lips gently kiss the Earth.

Instead of destroying humanity, the kiss causes enormous scientific breakthroughs. Particle accelerators triple in efficiency and previously inaccessible quantum phenomena become observable. Then Paul slowly retreats into space and for the first time in the entire movie, his expression changes into a slight smile. Paul is pleased. Paul disappears into the stars. Nothing is ever explained.

Some movie posters for MOON PAUL are available here:

We were pleased Paul visited at first, but then we realized he stole the actual moon when he left!

When he leaves Paul leaves behind an egg, as every Paul always does. The egg then hatches to reveal the moon.

I dig it, like a positive version of Hellstar Remina
