Farrah Fawcett Sci-Fi - Logan's Run and Saturn 3

Purchase Logan's Run from Barnes & Noble
Happy Birthday to American actress Farrah Fawcett, who was born on this day in 1947.

She became a noted pop culture figure and sex symbol of the 1970s and into the 1980s, shaping the landscape of fashion and pop culture.

Her body of work includes a couple of science fiction films:


Logan's Run (1976), with Michael York. An idyllic sci-fi future has one major drawback: life must end at 30.

Here's the trailer:




Saturn 3 (1980), with Kirk Douglas and Harvey Keital. Two lovers stationed at a remote base in the asteroid fields of Saturn are intruded upon by a retentive technocrat from Earth and his charge: a malevolent 8-ft robot.

Here's the trailer:
