Legendary all-stars of cinema bring to life the evolution of science-fiction and special effects films from the wild and funny days of B-movies to blockbusters that have captured the world's imagination. This is the story of the Sci-Fi Boys, who started out as kids making amateur movies inspired by Forrest J Ackerman's FAMOUS MONSTERS magazine and grew up to take Hollywood by storm, inventing the art and technology for filming anything the mind can dream.

Vom aus Resten genähten Monster bis zu King Kong: In dieser Doku verbeugen sich die Meister des heutigen Trickkinos vor ihren Vorbildern - und nehmen uns auf eine faszinierende Zeitreise durch ein Genre mit.
