SCI-FI-LONDON festival programme announced

With its theme of "life in 2050", the ninth annual SF film festival (28 April to 3 May) is locked and loaded

The programme for this year's SCI-FI-LONDON has been revealed! And it seems you can expect a stellar cargo of big-name releases, low-budget gems, futurist rom-coms, crazed all-nighters and Belgian Vampire Cowboys; there's even an intergalactic Bollywood musical with digital effects courtesy of Peter Jackson’s Weta SFX house thrown in for good measure.

SAT 1 MAY
Seven feature films are on the big screen at the Apollo, plus ahead of Blizzard’s release of StarCraft II: The Wings of Liberty, there's a few movies with mecha, monsters, aliens and some great macho dialogue... then join us in the bar from 10.30pm and play a beta version of the game. It's followed by a Comedy All-Nighter and a Manga All-Nighter! We're also pretty sure that at some point during today SFX's Dave Bradley is taking part in a discussion panel: watch this space.

Dave was once the Group Editor-in-Chief for Future's film group, but now he's the COO of Pocket Gamer and Pocket Gamer Biz. He also freelances for SFX Magazine and hosts the Robby The Robot's Waiting podcast with a couple of friends.
