Categories:

This week, we're diving deep into the gritty, high-tech world of cyberpunk with two landmark films from 1995. First up is Johnny Mnemonic, where Keanu Reeves takes us on a data-smuggling adventure through a dystopian future filled with corporate espionage and cybernetic enhancements. Then, we’ll explore Strange Days, a film that delves into the dark underbelly of a near-future Los Angeles, where recorded memories and virtual experiences are traded on the black market. Join us as we dissect these cyberpunk classics and their impact on the genre. Visit our website https://www.journeythroughscifi.com/ Email Us!
