Synopsis
Of all movie genres today, sci-fi probably has the highest profile and certainly a dominant position in the box office. The high-tech gloss and the massive budgets all seem a far cry from the sci-fi movies of that previous Golden Age, the middle of the 20th century, when for the most part the appeal of sci-fi cinema was its low-budget cheesiness. In this book the renowned writer on fantasy, sci-fi and animated cinema John Grant conducts a lightning survey of the best - and the worst - of sci-fi movies., Sci-fi films are pure gold at the box office--think "Star Wars "and "Spider-Man"--with an exceptionally devoted fan base. And Paul Barnett, an award-winning author of many nonfiction books on science fiction and fantasy, as well as some 50 novels, has created a great guide for them. It expertly surveys the genre's best and worst, charting the cinematic changes from the low-budget, cheesy 50's flicks to today's high-budget, high-tech blockbusters with their mind-blowing special effects. Separate sections cover remakes, sequels, award-winners, and even sci-fi erotica! Mavens will enjoy all the in-depth information and memorable quotes--as well as the smart, knowledgeable writing., Sci-fi films are pure gold at the box officethink "Star Wars "and "Spider-Man"with an exceptionally devoted fan base.
