Feature Writer: William J. Felchner
French director Georges Melies made the first science fiction/fantasy film in 1902. Titled Le Voyage dans la lune -- A Trip to the Moon -- Melies' early, primitive effort ran only 14 minutes.
Since then, such gems as Metropolis (1927), Things to Come (1936), Dr. Cyclops (1940), The Fly (1958), The Illustrated Man (1969), The Andromeda Strain (1971), Soylent Green (1973), Clash of the Titans (1981), Total Recall (1990) and I, Robot (2004) have followed.
If you're a move fan into time travel, space exploration, robots, cyborgs, death rays, mythology or even a man with X-ray eyes, then you have landed in the right galaxy.
We offer sci-fi/fantasy film retrospectives, reviews, news items, interviews, profiles, auction reports and some of the best images on the Internet.
All aboard for a Fantastic Voyage!
