Hi All,
I usually wouldn't bother making a post about a film, but Capricorn 1 is on tonight (Saturday, 10th July) on UTV at midnight, pity its on so late.
Its about a "nasa" attempt to get to mars with a nasty twist for the astronauts involved :lol:
One of the first scifi films I saw, a bit of a B-move ring about it though.

For those of you without taste and who missed this 'gem' Sky Movies are showing it to commemorate the Apollo 11 landing near the end of the month. Not quite an appropriate film for the ocassion methinks.
