0/5 ( ratings)

Science fiction movies are weird and well after more than a century, as they time-travel beyond all genre cliches. Sci-Fi movies aren’t afraid to be more thought-provoking, more experimental, more adventurous, more... subversive.

Subversive Sci-Fi : Reflections on Futuristic Films That Broke the Rules salutes movies and movie-makers who forever changed the way speculative flicks were made, viewed, marketed, released, and merchandised. Within its Atom Age pages, Subversive Sci-Fi presents an eclectic mix of today’s most talented scribes sharing their humor and insights about their favorite groundbreaking films. Readers will see the classics in all new ways, and find some new spaced-out thrills to buy, rent, or stream.
