Horror was last year's project - or rather the Gothic.

This year it's sci-fi. (And China, but there's not much crossover.)

The series are all unfamiliar to me. I'll be getting the Outer Space CFF release, as i rate the ones i already have very highly.

Which of the others would you recommend?

For my part, I'll be getting OUT OF THE UNKNOWN, THE CHANGES and NINETEEN EIGHTY FOUR ( how can you resist anything with Peter Cushing in it, Dem? :) )

Does anyone know what extras are on this please?

Just found this, Dem:

Directed by John Mackenzie (The Long Good Friday, Just Another Saturday), this acclaimed and long-unseen BBC TV Play for Today from 1978 is adapted by Alan Garner (The Owl Service) from his own complex and enthralling sci-fi fantasy novel. It will be released on DVD for the first time on 13 October 2014 as part of the BFI’s SCI-FI: DAYS OF FEAR AND WONDER, a 3-month nationwide celebration of Sci-Fi film and TV.

Red Shift takes the viewer on a beguiling voyage through English history, spanning three distinct time periods: Roman Britain, the English Civil War and 1970s modern day. Garner’s story follows three troubled young men, Tom, Thomas and Macey, who occupy these different eras and are haunted by shared visions. They are also linked by a common location (Mow Cop in south Cheshire) and by the discovery of a mystical talisman: an ancient axe-head.

Exploring themes of mysticism, folklore and geography that are common in Alan Garner’s fantasy novels, Red Shift is a uniquely compelling Play for Today from the golden age of BBC drama.

Alan Garner has contributed a new essay to the accompanying booklet.

Much appreciated Mojo. :thumb:

At only 75 mins i'm not sure it warrants shelling out 14 squid for.

No probs!
I'm in two minds whether to get this one too. Maybe wait til it comes down in price.
Mind you, I'd love to see a PLAY FOR TODAY boxset.

One of the sci-fi sets is £55. :eek:

I've not seen any of the BFI's forthcoming sci-fi releases so i'm very unsure if i'll like them even.

Any CFF stuff is welcome personally The Boy From Space is, from memory a sombre wee film, The Glitterball just one of those things that would only come from 70s in the UK etc, 1984, which I thought was "lost"!! and TDTECF is the film surely? For a scifi flick set mainly in a newspaper office, tis mildly gripping....the rest I haven't seen...maybe The Changes.......

I recently finished watching THE CHANGES. It's a thought provoking and sometimes quite adult show ( it was a kids series ). Really enjoyed it.
I'll definitely be getting NINETEEN EIGHTY FOUR and OUT OF THE UNKNOWN.
