We see The Sci-Fi Christian, in all its iterations, as being about the collision between faith and nerdom. We believe that good genre fiction is about more than just entertainment. We seek to engage with the themes and philosophies behind our favorite stories, wrestling with the big ideas within speculative fiction. We’re unabashedly nerdy and unabashedly Christian. Even if your faith background differs from ours, we look forward to interacting with you at The Sci-Fi Christian!

Barry first found music when he borrowed his sister's record collection when he was about eight and was hooked. When Caroline started it was a new beginning, and he listened to all the stations, but Caroline was his favourite by far. Later he became a singer in a band, then started doing discos when he was 18. He joined Caroline in 1977, touring the country with the Caroline Roadshow for 10 years, having great fun. Barry helped with tender trips and worked on the Ross Revenge in '84 and '85. ...

Triple Feature: The Lost Boys/Falling Down/8MM

Tonight on Triple Feature we are doing a director focus on Joel Schumacher. We are reviewing The Lost Boys, Falling Down and 8mm!
Most people only remember Joel Schumacher for Batman & Robin. Neon lights, Bat-nipples, toy commercials. He did what Warner Bros. told him to do, and he got crucified for it. But if you actually look at his career, Schumacher wasn’t a hack. He was a stylist with something to say—especially about male power.
Take The Lost Boys. It looks like a teenage power fantasy—motorcycles, leather jackets, eternal youth. But it’s really about the seduction of that brotherhood, and how it traps you.
Then Falling Down. A middle-aged man, angry at the world, trying to take back control. It feels like vigilante wish-fulfillment, but Schumacher shows it as a breakdown. Male power here isn’t noble—it’s pathetic and dangerous.
And finally 8MM. The darkest version: power as voyeurism, where wealthy men turn suffering into a commodity. No fantasy, no cool factor—just exploitation laid bare.
Put together, these three films form Schumacher’s real trilogy. They’re about how men chase power, how it seduces them, and how it destroys them. And that’s a far richer legacy than just being the guy who put nipples on the Batsuit.
