Forces of Geek "A History of Sci-Fi Cinema" Column - Part III

The fine folks over at Forces of Geek have allowed me the space and time to ramble on about the history of science fiction cinema.  These bi-weekly columns, will make an attempt, however feeble, at discussing the history of this often chided cinematic genre.  From its birth to the latest CGI box office hits, I will take a look at the films that have filled the genre, as well as their literary influences and TV offshoots.  In this episode, my third in the series, I take a look at the the 1920's and the expressionistic and art deco work of Fritz Lang, and especially at his great classic of the genre, Metropolis.
