Directed by Robert Wise, The Andromeda Strain is based on the novel of the same name by Michael Crichton. The film follows a group of scientists who are called in to examine a government satellite that crashlands just outside a small town in New Mexico, mysteriously killing almost every citizen within minutes. The scientists discover the satellite carried a lethal extraterrestrial virus, dubbed “The Andromeda Strain,” and now must find a way to contain and destroy it before it can spread. The film and novel versions are credited with establishing the “techno-thriller” subgenre of science fiction.
