Life Beyond Earth. The University of Arizona science lecture series is back! This year’s theme: Catalysts of Change. Kicking it off are astronomy professor Chris Impey and molecular and cellular biology and astronomy professor Betül Kaçar. They’ll be talking about the trajectory of life on Earth and the future of life off-Earth. Are we alone in the universe? How can what we’ve learned about our planet tell us about what we should be prepared for as we explore other planets? These are the sorts of topics these two experts will be discussing at this fascinating talk. 7 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 4. Centennial Hall. Free.

Giallo Month. The University of Arizona’s Cinematopia club is painting February red by celebrating “Giallo,” the Italian mystery/horror genre that features artsy camera work, spooky atmospheres and bloody death scenes.

This 1964 flick directed by Mario Bava follows a series of murders that take place in a high-end fashion house. Before the movie, there will also be a curated pre-show of Giallo movie trailers. 7:30 to 10 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 4. Located at the UA Harvill building at 1103 E. Second St. in Room 104. Free.
