adam_text | This major new study offers a broad historical and theoretical reassessment of the
science fiction film genre. The book explores the development of science fiction in
cinema from its beginnings in early film through to recent examples of the genre.
Each chapter sets analyses of chosen films within a wider historical/cultural
context, while concentrating on a specific thematic issue. The book therefore
presents vital and unique perspectives in its approach to the genre, which include
discussion of the relevance of psychedelic imagery, the new woman of science ,
generic performance and the prevalence of techno-orientalism in recent films.
While American films are one of the principle areas covered, the author also
engages with a range of pertinent examples from other nations, as well as
discussing the centrality of science fiction as a transnational film genre. Films
discussed include The Day the Earth Stood Still, The Body Snatchers, Forbidden
Planet, The Quatermass Experiment,
The Motion Picture, Star Wars, Altered States, Alien, Blade Runner, The Brother
from Another Planet, Back to the Future, The Terminator, Predator, The One, Dark
City, The Matrix, Fifth Element and eXistenZ.
