A History Of Science Fiction Movies - How the future was viewed in the first half of the twentieth century, using rare and original archiv

 

This film is not currently available on DVD.

Film Description

How the future was viewed in the first half of the twentieth century, using rare and original archive clips from many classic sci-fi movies, including clips from Melies's 'A Trip To The Moon'. It's a fine introduction to the genre and includes a host of original cinema trailers from some of the most fondly-remembered films, as well as a couple from the 'so bad it's good' school. A pleasure for aficionados and film buffs of all ages.
