I still think the Science Fiction Museum is a kinda goofy idea, but I am pleased to learn that they’re going to be hosting a science fiction film series, beginning on January 21st and running through April 1st. The movies will be screened at the EMP’s JBL Theater on Friday evenings starting at 7:00 and include:

Altered States (January 21)
The Brother From Another Planet (February 4)
Brazil (February 18)
Until the End of the World (March 4)
12 Monkeys and La Jetee (March 18)
Dark City (April 1)

Most of these are familiar titles, except for Wim Wenders’ Until the End of the World. I’m really excited about getting a chance to finally see this, even if only in the butchered two hour theatrical release version. (The director’s final cut runs over four and a half hours.) I own the soundtrack, so I already know that the music is great, but the movie itself is pretty hard to find since it’s never been released on DVD.

The Twelve Monkeys/La Jetee pairing should also make for a sweet viewing experience.

Tickets are available at the theater on the day of the show and cost $6 ($4 for card-carrying SIFF members).
