THE TERMINATOR (1984) - Tuesday, September 29!
Free film screening in the Madorsky Theater at 6pm.

In 1984, James Cameron introduced the world to a relentless machine sent back in time to change the future. The Terminator launched one of the most iconic franchises in Hollywood history, and due to its popularity, people still refer to any digital totalitarian force as “Skynet.” Get ready to meet the machine that started it all, the Cyberdyne Systems T-800 cyborg.
Portrayed by Arnold Schwarzenegger, this machine is a cybernetic organism with living tissue over a heavy-duty metal endoskeleton. It cannot be reasoned with or negotiated with, and it will not stop 🛑

The Terminator is part of the museum’s ongoing “AI IN ENTERTAINMENT” fall film series. From groundbreaking visual effects to ideas about technology and the future, this film rewrote the rules of science fiction and still captivates audiences today.

Join us for a free screening and discussion afterwards with historian and film critic Dr. David Morton.
