Sunday Sci-Fi Cinema Matinée: Flying Saucer Edition


THIS SUNDAY, MARCH 12:

We begin this Sunday’s MonSFFA meeting with another installment of our semi-regular Sunday Sci-Fi Cinema Matinée, this month spotlighting vintage science fiction films that feature flying saucers

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To allow us the time necessary, we’re starting the meeting an hour earlier than usual, so note the 12:00PM start time, and remember, also, that this is the weekend the clocks are set ahead one hour (at 2:00AM, Sunday), so that’s 12:00PM Daylight Savings Time! Adjust your schedules accordingly so that you don’t miss the fun!

Here’s the word from the pages on this month’s Impulse:

12:00PM-1:45PM

Sunday Sci-Fi Cinema Matinée—Flying Saucer Edition: Chose for review one of five vintage sci-fi films on our list this month, all featuring flying saucers in honour of last month’s guest speaker on UFOs, Professor Don Donderi!

As always, MonSFFen will be asked to collectively choose one of the five films on our list this Sunday for review and discussion. We’ll evaluate script, direction, performances, and special effects. And we’ll talk about the selected film’s place in sci-fi cinema’s pantheon.

With this edition of Sunday Sci-Fi Cinema Matinée, we offer two of the finest sci-fi films of not only the 1950s, but of all time, two quality ’50s B-movies, and perhaps the worst science fiction flick ever made!

Aside from the flying saucers featured in all five films, you may choose to witness sensational scenes of destruction, both on distant alien worlds and in Washington, D. C., the latter choreographed by stop-motion magician Ray Harryhausen! You might just meet one of the two most famous robots in science fiction film, or an iconic alien mutant! Or, you may opt to  marvel at the rank incompetence of an atrocious director and his cast and crew!
