Summary: The Overlook Film Encyclopedia (Science Fiction)
Comment: You can spend hours browsing trough this encyclopedia. Of course you will recognize many of the classic. Yet you may be surprised at the multitude of great films that you missed. There are better descriptions and stills than you find in most of the genre magazines.

Contents:

THE EARLY YEARS: Innocent Beginnings (1895-1919)
THE TWENTIES: Dark Visions and Brash Adventure
THE THIRTIES: Mad Scientists and Comic Book Heroes
THE FORTIES: Science Fiction Eclipsed

THE FIFTIES: Science Fiction Reborn
THE SISTIES: Science Fiction Respectable
THE SEVENTIES: Big Budgets and Big Bucks
THE EIGHTIES: Science Fiction Triumphant

I am not going to bore you with the list of my favorites but I challenge you not to fine one of yours.

Rating: 5
Summary: Outstanding reference work!
Comment: This really has to be recognised as a monumental reference work. The sheer breadth of material found and reviewed by Hardy is extraordinary. I will be using this book for years to come.

Rating: 5
Summary: The most comprehensive I've seen yet
Comment: A treasure chest that covers all sf movies from 1895 to the present. If it's not in here, it probably wasn't made--everything from Mexican quickies starring popular Mexican wrestling champions to Hungarian space-vampires to the late 1950's "The Colussus of New York" (a film I had been trying to find the name of for 30 years). And it's stuffed with pictures--about 450 b&w and color.
