2001: A Space Odyssey

Trailer for the 2001 science fiction film: A Space Odyssey

Stanley Kubrick began making his last science fiction film with 2001: A Space Odyssey and he succeeded. Co-written by Kubrick with acclaimed science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke, 2001: A Space Odyssey touches on all major themes including: exploring new corners of outer space, A.I. turning its back on humanity,...

Science fiction movie Stalker trailer

Seven years after making a space trip in Solaris, Tarkovsky has taken on his artfully complex sci-fi franchise through Stalker. Set in a dense post-apocalyptic wasteland called "The Zone," Stalker witnesses a tour guide take a writer and a scientist to "The Room" in an illegal way, where their wishes seem to come true.

Despite receiving mixed reactions from contemporary critics, since then, Stalker has still been considered a masterpiece of world cinema dealing with psychological and philosophical topics. However, because it possesses a brainstorming story, it may take some insight to fully understand Tarkovsky's complex ideas.

The Matrix

Trailer 1 of the science fiction movie The Matrix

The Wachowskis made '90s audiences question their realistic nature with the groundbreaking complex sci-fi action film The Matrix. In the film, Keanu Reeves plays Neo, who learns that humanity has essentially been turned into "batteries" by robots from the future, from which he joins the resistance against machines in the "real world".

With its magical imagery and allusion to Alice in Wonderland, The Matrix is a truly different film. There's plenty of spectacular John Woo-style action to balance its sore, thought-provoking themes.

Trailer for the sci-fi movie Blade Runner

Adapted from Philip K. Dick's novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, director Ridley Scott's complex sci-fi film Blade Runner tells the story of a tough detective named Rick Deckard who is tasked with hunting down hordes of escaped robots who are integrating into human society in a miserable future Los Angeles.

Scott transplanted familiar noir into the sci-fi setting of Blade Runner. The unclear description from the film of Deckard's identity makes it difficult to follow, but the breathtaking visuals are well worth your enjoyment.

Ken Russell's complex, macabre science fiction work, Altered States was inspired by John C. Lilly's study of sensory depletion — he conducted by administering neurostimulants in a quarantine tank. It stars William Hurt as a psychologist and physiologist who performs similar experiments.

Spread over the duration of Altered States, he begins to experience haunting hallucinations that he believes may be genetic memories. Russell's psychedelic imagery makes Altered States an experience unlike any other.
