"It Came From Outer Space" will be screened
in 3-D splendor Thursday.
The classes will run 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. Thursdays through Dec. 16.
Screening Thursday will be two sci-fi classics in their original versions, "Rocketship X-M" and "It Came From Outer Space."
The first film stars John Emery and Lloyd Bridges in a 1950 tale of inter-planetary travel. The latter film, made in 1953, was based on a Ray Bradbury story and was the first sci-fi film of the period to deal with the subject of alien "possession," a plot device often used for its Cold War implications.
Other themes include "Rare British Thrillers" (Nov. 11) and "Unique Melodramas" (Nov. 18).
The cost of the session is $70. To register, call the center at 532-8741.
