Science Fiction Films of The 20th Century: The Early Years

A collection of essays by the author about films which were left out of The Most Important Science Fiction Films of The 20th Century trilogy but were still important to pop culture and the genre. The chronology covers all science fiction films from 1900 to 1939. Each essay includes a complete plot synopsis additional analyses and notes anecdotal information and data where possible; since some films have been lost. Each has been selected for addition to this volume based on the authors experience as a fan of science fiction and a film critic. Some of the films may seem like cheaply made popcorn thrillers but when seen for their themes and impact they were actually quite educational.
