“Forbidden Planet” (MGM, 1956). 1979 tribute art by Vincent Di Fate featuring Robby the Robot, Starship C-57D, planet Altair IV and a monster from the id.

One of the great science fiction films of the 1950s, “Forbidden Planet” pioneered several aspects of science fiction cinema: the first to depict humans traveling in a faster-than-light starship of their own creation; the first to be set entirely on another planet light-years away from Earth; the first with a robot that was more than just a mechanical tin can on legs; and the first of any genre to use an entirely electronic musical score, courtesy of Bebe and Louis Barron and their theremin.
 
Considered one of the best examples of early techno-horror, the picture was entered into the Library of Congress’ National Film Registry in 2013, being deemed “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.” [Source: Wikipedia]

Sleestak mood.

Why?
Because the Sleestak’s coming
Why?
Because the Sleestak’s coming
Feel me, heal me
Why?

I’m in the land of the lost without you
Stumbling on pylons, I haven’t a clue
Marshall, Will, Holly or Chaka won’t do
‘Cause I need your love, baby, you know it’s true

Why?
Because the Sleestak’s coming
Why?
Because the Sleestak’s coming
Feel me, heal me
Why?

The Zarn may forsake me, the lost city take me
Time may defy me, but your love won’t bind me
Your love is freedom, we share a reason
Which world we abide in’s no difference to me

Why?
Because the Sleestak’s coming
Why?
Because the Sleestak’s coming

You put me under a spell like the thunder
Heart like a T. Rex, you’re savage and reckless
You set the scene, you set the scene
The Pleistocene, the Pleistocene
We’re on the brink, we’re on the brink
The missing link, the missing link

You put me under a spell like the thunder
You set the scene, you set the scene
The Pleistocene, the Pleistocene
We’re on the brink, we’re on the brink
The missing link, the missing link https://instagr.am/p/CXW9qifJd08/
