Weekend Review: The Green Slime (1968)
We’ll get you something new next weekend when our annual October Countdown begins. Specifically, we’ll have a review of The Blair Witch, currently shaking up theatre audiences.
For now, with summer ’16 just gone and the horrors of the Presidential Debate nigh, we present one more retro review, from a more innocent time.
This film holds a strange place in the history of SF cinema. Made in Japan with a non-Japanese cast, The Green Slime plays like the love child of Star Trek and a 1950s drive-in movie creature feature, presages (and possibly helped inspire) Armageddon and Alien, and was the basis of Mystery Science Theater 3000‘s unaired pilot episode.
That’s probably all you need to know but, if you want more, read on.

Will Elon Musk make it to Mars?
JD DeLuzio Newspace, Science 0 Comments
By now, you’ve undoubtedly heard that SpaceX founder Elon Musk hopes to establish a colony on Mars. Eric Mack of Cnet argues that the plan is insane but not impossible, while TheVerge’s Elizabeth Lopatto finds Musk’s plans implausible, but notes that they may lead to other important discoveries.
Assuming the first flights ever get off the ground, they’ll be dangerous one-way trips.
