The Passion of the Crood

August Patrons get a history lesson in forgotten sci-fi movies as Brock, Arnie, and Stuart dig up The Man From Earth – the final screen effort from acclaimed Twilight Zone and Star Trek scribe Jerome Bixby. What happens when seven academics confront a retiring professor who claims to have received his education in anthropology by living through the last 14,000 years of human existence?  Could this collegiate cro-magnon possibly have accomplished more in his time than horror icon Tony Todd and Greatest American Hero William Katt?
