Blade Runner: The Final Cut at the Silver Screen Drive-in

Don’t miss sci-fi epic “Blade Runner: The Final Cut” at the Silver Screen Drive-in on Friday, September 24 at 8:00 pm!

A blade runner must pursue and terminate four replicants who stole a ship in space and have returned to Earth to find their creator. Blade Runner is not just revelatory because it was way ahead of its time in visuals and stye that still influence every science fiction movie to this day, but also in the characters and the noir feel. 

In the early twenty-first century, the Tyrell Corporation developed robots, called "replicants", which looked and acted like humans. When some replicants doing dangerous off-Earth work mutiny replicants become illegal on Earth. Police units, called "blade runners", must ‘retire’ any replicant that is found on Earth, with anyone convicted of aiding or assisting a replicant being sentenced to death. 

In Los Angeles, 2019 Deckard, a former blade runner, is called out of retirement when four known replicants have made their way back to Earth. On their trail he begins to ask questions about what the replicants want with the Tyrell Corporation after they try to infiltrate it. After talking to Rachael, who works as Tyrell's assistant Deckard begins to question everything.

Rotten Tomatoes 92 % Critic’s Score and 96% Audience Score.

“This remains an astonishing achievement: a Dystopian sci-fi epic that is also one of the best film noirs of recent times.” - Geoffrey Macnab, Independent (UK)

“The single most immersive and tactile world ever created for the cinema.” - Tom Huddleston, Time Out

“Ford, with his Star Wars cachet, was Blade Runner's top-line draw, but it's Hauer's movie all the way, his shimmering "replicant" providing the tonal touchstone for Ridley Scott's severally reworked masterpiece.” - Mark Kermode, Observer (UK)
