Doctor Who Dalek Double Feature
Brand new restorations of the two classic Doctor Who feature films starring award-winning actor Peter Cushing: DR. WHO AND THE DALEKS and DALEKS’ INVASION EARTH 2150 A.D.
Long-time favourites for Doctor Who and sci-fi fans, these two films were initially released in 1965 and 1966 respectively, directed by Gordon Flemyng and shot in glorious Technicolor. Now regenerated in out-of-this-world 4K, the films, which are to date the only big-screen outings for the Doctor, also boast a beloved supporting cast including Bernard Cribbins, Roberta Tovey, Roy Castle and Jennie Linden.
DR. WHO AND THE DALEKS was the first big screen film adaptation of British TV’s most iconic sci-fi hero, and the first time Doctor Who was ever seen in colour. Having invented the TARDIS, a strange machine capable of travelling into other dimensions, the Doctor and his three young accomplices set forth on a quest through time and space. Their journey takes them into the dark, undiscovered depths of the universe and to the planet of Skaro, a primitive world devastated by nuclear war and populated by two warring species, a peaceful tribe known as Thals and a life form heavily mutated by radiation, encased in protective machines, a merciless force of destruction known as The Daleks!
The second film, DALEKS’ INVASION EARTH 2150 A.D. sees Cushing return to the big screen – the future of Planet Earth now belongs to The Daleks, but deep within the London Underground a group of resistance freedom fighters are planning an attack. Can The Doctor help them succeed in destroying their extra-terrestrial enemies and take back control of Earth?
