Since its release in 1982, Ridley Scott’s *Blade Runner* , based on Philip K. Dick’s novel *Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?* , has remained a cult classic through its depiction of a futuristic Los Angeles; its complex, enigmatic plot; and its underlying questions about the nature of human identity. *The Blade Runner Experience: The Legacy of a Science Fiction Classic* examines the film in a broad context, examining its relationship to the original novel, the PC game, the series of sequels, and the many films influenced by its style and themes. It investigates *Blade Runner* online fandom and asks how the film’s future city compares to the present-day Los Angeles, and it revisits the film to pose surprising new questions about its characters and their world.
