Join us at the Strand Cinema as we celebrate ‘Video Game Day’ with a screening of The Last Starfighter.

Nick Castle’s 1984 feature tells the story of Alex Rogan (Lance Guest), a teenage-boy recruited by an alien defence force to fight in an interstellar war after setting the high-score on an arcade-game at his local trailer park.

The film also features Robert Preston, Dan O’Herlihy, Catherine Mary Stewart, Norman Snow, and Kay E. Kuter.

After the screening members of the BanterFlix team will record a short edition of their podcast as they discuss some of the best and worst videogame adaptations in recent memory.
