Overview

Take the red pill and vanish down the rabbit hole, with the Valhalla Social Cinema this Saturday, September 6. North Melbourne's premier film collective will hold court for 14 hours of science fiction movie goodness, with titles from the '70s and '80s through to today.

The marathon will take place at the Electron Workshop on Arden Street. The candy bar opens at 10am, with the projector set to whir into gear precisely half-an-hour later. Things kick off with the 1971 paranoid thriller The Andromeda Strain, based on the book by Michael Crichton. '80s comedy The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension comes next, followed by a trio of dystopian flicks in Moon, Rollerball and Robocop (the original, of course).

The marathon closes out with The Matrix, a film whose mind-bending techno-philosophy should do nicely after more than half a day without sunlight or physical exercise of any kind.
