John Carpenter’s Tales of Science Fiction is the definitive collection of stories at the crossroads of horror and sci-fi. Follow us into a dark future, from post-apocalyptic earth, into space and beyond. Each mini series explores the universal fears of the unknown, alien life, interstellar travel, and the age old question, can anyone can hear you scream in space. The answer is no.
GOOD NEWS and BAD NEWS: We've made successful alien contact and as a result, cured cancer. But is that the good news, or the bad? Because there's a downside. Because there is an opposite number to the Envoy, a gracile golden visitor who has come to heal: the flipside visitor which looks pretty much like Lovecraft's worst nightmare.
