Forbidden Planet (1956)

When an expedition from Earth journeys to the distant planet Altair-4, it should be home to a colony of settlers but is instead only occupied by an enigmatic scientist, his curious daughter, and a hard-working robot called Robby. Whilst exploring and investigating what happened to the rest of the planet’s inhabitants, the crew uncover the survivors’ dark secret. A screening of this 1950s sci-fi classic followed by a talk from one of our astronomers on the science behind the film. Popcorn, soft drinks and booze available to buy beforehand.
