SCI-FI-LONDON is the UK’s leading genre event and an internationally recognised launch pad for genre movies. At each festival we have at least a dozen UK premieres.

The festival is now in its 9th year and will take place Wed 28th April – Mon 3rd May 2010 at The Apollo Piccadilly Circus Cinema, London’s most luxurious cinema.

Starcraft II All-nighter

In anticipation of Blizzard’s release of STARCRAFT II – The Wings of Liberty, the PC based strategy game, we have put together a few movies with mecha, monsters, aliens and some great macho dialogue…

Join us in the bar from 10.30pm and play a beta version of the game then grab your goody bag and kick-back for a night of kick-ass! Complimentary Purbeck Ice-cream, energy drinks, tea and coffee and a few special give-aways on the night.
