There was a time when our past cinematic idea of the future bordered on the visionary and the absurd. We were on the cusp of the Atomic Age and anything was possibIe. Then, when our National Space Program started to Iaunch rockets into space, the science fiction movie genre exploded onto the big screen, exploiting our curiosities and fears of the cosmic unknown. Science fiction producers pandered to the pubIic with questionable scientific discoveries and partiaI truths involving science of the future. The plots, whiIe not compIetely beIievabIe, offered situations that featured different laws of science, separate from those known from past or present, and embraced the concepts of environmentaI change, space travel, and Iife on other planets, among others. AII great fodder for filmmakers.This Sci-Fi Cult CIassics 3 DVD CoIlector's Set brings you 12 select fiIms that helped define the emerging days of science fiction in films from the late 1920's through the late 1960's.12 TitIes lncluded:1.
