You should be able to expand on what you read by using information already in your head. Try using sites such as film site.org. I have now posted Genre links for you (opposite the smiley face!).

A Film Festival devoted to Sci-fi...and it's on your doorstep.
Now in it’s third year The London Sci-fi Film Festival describes itself as a “non-geeky” look at all things science fiction and fantasy based. It brings together rare screenings, short-film showcases, numerous new-movie premieres and the occasional debate, Sci-Fi London crams wildly imaginative material from around the globe into a three-day weekend at the end of January each year. It also has an excellent website which can be found by clicking on the title (genre studies-yr 13) above.
