Last year, journalist and filmmaker David Weiner examined the ‘80s horror movie boom with his documentary, In Search of Darkness. Now, he’s hoping to repeat that film’s success by taking a closer look at the decade’s sci-fi offerings. The Hollywood Reporter brings word that Weiner is launching a crowdfunding campaign for his next project, In Search of Tomorrow. Touting itself as “the definitive ‘80s sci-fi documentary,” In Search of Tomorrow promises to tell new stories behind the decade’s most beloved sci-fi staples, including The Empire Strikes Back, Blade Runner, The Terminator, Flash Gordon, Tron, Aliens, and even Weird Science.
