Re: Science Fiction Classics
a lot of stephen king sci-fi stuff is really pretty worthwhile if you're up for cheap production values...the langoliers, the stand, tc etc i can't even remember them all...and in fact i thought "the mist" was excellent, up until the last 30 seconds, when it nose-dives.
the bottled souls (japanese movie entirely set in an elevator in the future) is pretty mental and way original.
one point O is extremely good. it stars jeremy sisto and deborah unger just like sunshine, and was directed by jeff renfroe who was signed on to the apparently ill-fated stray toasters project. instead he's got a new sci-fi one slated for next year called the colony, i expect it will be quality stuff...
jodorowsky stuff (fando y lis, holy mountain)...wish he'd done dune like he was initially signed on to. wish a metabarons movie had been made...
the quiet earth -- it's just about the same plot as the omega man, but quite good instead of really dumb.
soilent green
the prestige...good fucking movie. err...i don't mean it's porn..it's good
cronos -- one of guilhermo del toro's first movies, has ron perlman...excellent stuff, possibly my favorite but of course all his movies belong here.
invasion of the body snatchers...i really like the 70's one with goldblum...
alien nation
brother from another planet
doomsday (just out on dvd)...decent shit with kate beckinsale, totally a john carpenter send-off, even the soundtrack.
dagon becomes over the top gore fest, but until then it's one of the most drexciyan movies i think
krull, i need to see that shit again.
the watchmen...oh wait that's not out yet arghhh
@ central services nice to see another enki fan...
Re: Science Fiction Classics
@mekonin i have a soft spot for screamers too, which also reminds me i like tremors a lot too...more underground terror...but if you read the original philip k dick short story that screamers is based on, holy shit, it makes screamers seem like a pile of shit -- for one thing they totally fucked the ending, it is totally fucked up apoclayptic shit in the original story...it's also way more cerebral and claustrophobic, i think it's just soldiers holed up in a bunker for almost the entire story (which is only 20 pages or so)
Re: Science Fiction Classics
Ha ha - The Prestige - I guess that can be classified as sf
And it is very good!
