TGISF — Thank God It's Science Fiction . . . on Friday. 
~ A William Castle masterpiece (to use the term loosely.)
~ A movie about dreams that are "to die for" (which also describes Kate Capshaw).
~ And some obscure movie about the future, with a fly saucer, a robot, an invisible monster, and a virgin in a very short dress.

Project X (1968)
Opening Statement: A sci-fi tale from bargain-basement horror master William Castle.
Christopher George (from TV's "Rat Patrol") is a secret agent in the year 2118 who knows how to prevent the West from being destroyed by their mortal enemies, "Sino-Asia".
Unfortunately George has amnesia, so scientists stimulate his memory by causing him to think he's a bank robber in the 1960s. (That's certainly a novel treatment for amnesia.)
His subconscious creates a lethal force -- an animated effect by the Hanna-Barbara Studios. (That's certainly an unexpected side-effect to a medical treatment.)
Castle is famous for his novel promotional gimmicks for low budget horror films such as "The Tingler", which featured vibrating seats. "Project X" doesn't quite fit this mold. (But the poster is kinda cool, huh?)
Dreamscape (1984)
Opening Statement: The beautiful version shown below has only been on YouTube for a month, so please download it before it's gone! 
I did, and it looks GREAT!

Opening Statement: | Gord Green wrote: | | I think we figured out that the "extension" was part of Morbius's lab and the entrance to the Krell tunnel leading to the Krell lab, therefore it would have to abut a rockface |
Well, we certainly did our best to figure out a way to make the matte painting fit the interior floor plan, along with the fact that Morbius' study is on the same level as both the tunnel and the Krell lab.
