The great corridors of sci-fi cinema


Martin Anderson shamelessly geeks out in a fun Den of Geek column celebrating the great corridors of sci-fi cinema. Anderson is a corridor connoisseur, and after you read this article you may well become a corridorophile, too.

It's too bad he limited the article to the corridors of movie sci-fi. TV sci-fi has had some unforgettable corridors, too. The sleek and well-scrubbed halls of Star Trek. The mecha-horror corridor decor of the Borg. (Try saying that three times fast.) The sticky, drippy, almost womb-like walls of Lexx, the constantly evolving yet homey passageways of Doctor Who's Tardis. And don't get me started on sci-fi's greatest air ducts!
