Starwars ?
well at least they got blade runner correct. The rest, some r okay, but where is *the matrix*, and *tron*. wtf these r all cult sci-fi
I love "Earth Girls Are Easy", "Brother From Another Planet" and, my new fav, "The Story of Future Folk"! It is an entertaining and quirky small budget film, esp if you love music and banjo picking. Hondo!
Bad films for the most part. Exception – Dark City, Bladerunner, and possibly Time Bandits.
Harold and Maude, Eraserhead, Fighting Elegy, Night of the Living Dead, eXistenZ, Wicker Park, Mothman Prophecies, Dazed and Confused, Alphaville.
13th Warrior, Excalibur, Cool Hand Luke, Mystic Pizza, Metropolitan, Last Days of Disco, Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid, Masculin Feminin, Paper Chase, Zardoz, THX 1138, High Fidelity, Kids Return, Boiling Point, Diner, Zatoichi Meet Yojimbo, Johnny Guitar, The Thing, Risky Business, Long Riders, Warriors, Manchurian Candidate, McCabe and Mrs Miller, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Wanderers, Cooley High, Wicker Man, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Mildred Pierce, Fountainhead, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, Baby It's You, Clockwatchers, Get Carter,

yeah dune shit man who fell to earth.laberryth.legend.demon seed protius a robot takes your house rapes and inpregnates your wife gives birth to a half humon robot child what more sci fi is there!
Crappy list. Everyone knows Clockwork Orange should be #1. And not even a nod to 2001; A Space Odyssey.
No Terminator?
Great list. Donnie Darko is worth seeing.
More movies like Dark City, Donny Darko, & Event Horizon need to bee made
I definitely agree dune should have at least been mentioned and what about the evil dead trilogy?
Bladerunner is a masterpiece. What about 1974's The terminal man?
I guess "The Crow" would be considered fantasy?
Tank Girl and Cherry 2000 could have made this list easy also 🙂 Both were flops at first but now have a following and 2 of my Favorites!!
A Clockwork Orange: The milk contains LSD like drugs.
Hardware / Mark 13 and EvenHorizon?
John Carpenter's The Thing
Dear WatchMojo,
do you know what the "Sci" in Sci-Fi stands for? This list is full of shit that might have cult followings but ISNT SCIENCE FICTION!
12 monkeys still a classic
I think the sci-fi show sliders had an episode based on brazil
Does anyone think Forbidden Planet should've been in there?
Bubba Ho-Tep?
About Dark City: wasn't what the video says about the movie A MASSIVE F*CKING SPOILER OF THE ENTIRE PURPOSE OF THAT MOVIE!!!!???? If you havent't seen it yet, don't watch this video, it gves away the plot twist in the ending.
WHERE IS ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
