RobotJock
This is prob the first movie list on here where i know them all.
HypnagogicHallucinations
Yes. So much yes.
lcplspanky
+1 for dark city, one of my favorite movies of all time
Ragnarok1030
Cube always fucked me up.
actinistia
I watched it stoned with my best friend and her dad. She started crying and her dad couldnt stop giggling at the most fucked up scenes.
CptRobotNinja
Gattaca is such a great flick
ILikeShorts
Cube 2: HYPERCUBE
hessogladhesvlad
Pro Tip: Take some acid before watching Event Horizon, you'll thank me later!
redshadow1000
Fuck that shit man. Might as well tell them to watch silent hill too if you want them to freak the fuck out n claw at their skin
TGWeaver
Strange Days is really a fucking fantastic film.
SlapMySalamiThatGuyIsACommie
FUCK EVENT HORIZON
Kraken9
Cool world....yeah. I remember that one.
GamesDeen
God Johnny Mnemonic was such a steaming pile of shit. I love it!
osteoporoosi
Johnny Mnemonic is a fucking disaster in every way imaginable
StonesOnTheHill
Th ceaseless cruelty of Cube really fucked with me. "Don't know the barely visible trick of getting through this alive? Tough luck."
itmightbeamemorableday
I've tried to watch Dark City like 100x... still have NFI how it ends... fall asleep every time...
rudegoldberg
... and then you wake up and The Matrix is playing instead.
samthemflamb
No one mentioned the awesomeness of cool world. There was even an send game based on it.
TGWeaver
Probably because Cool World is terrible.
BoogaAndTheB52
I always wonder if people know what they mean by 'kafkaesque'. A lot of people have read Kafka but I hear it so often I assume people (1/2)
BoogaAndTheB52
use it a little ignorantly. Not seen the film but I imagine it's used correctly. (2/2)
GeezMomEnlightenUp
My eldest daughter is named after the heroine from City of lost children. It's going to be fun to explain when she's older.
PrudenceWoW
Miette!
GeezMomEnlightenUp
Precisely. :)
FloydAgustis
Event Horizon is amazing.
Cerinna
Yes. I now understand why my mother thinks Sam Neill is so creepy. I mean I know him from Jurassic Park, so I had no clue.

FloydAgustis
That movie had everything the Doom movie should have.
freakdiablo
Never thought of that, +1. The actual Doom movie wasn't bad as generic action movie #135, but it wasn't Doom.
WalrusIncognito
Try "In the mouth of madness."
Paintmeblue
These aren't from the 90's these were just last....ohhhhhhh. I'm old, now I am sad.
derekjohn
The 'ole time travel gets you every time.
TheVampireDante
Well played.
RockTheBeaker
Hahahaha that was my exact thought...
DummPatz
Event Horizon is cool and scary. I am sure it was the idea for Dead space gaming franchise. Check it out. Imdb underrated imo
StonesOnTheHill
Seeing it again, it has some pretty cheesy moments. But I really like the premise.
redshadow1000
If the movie was too cheesy read the book adaption. It goes into a little bit more detail on everyones past and reads like 2001 space Odyssy
NorwegianOak
There are many similarities in Event Horizon and the Warhammer 40k Franchise. :)
Solomon13
This is what happens when you fire warp drive without a bloody gellar field, you silly moos!
drunkenbuffoon
I love screamers so much. Underrated movie imo
rudegoldberg
Much discussion lately of human-like AI in movies, but this one never gets mentioned.
rUSINALAPSI
"Second variety" the short story its based on is my all time favorite. Didn't know they made a movie about it so excited about it now :D
Ilikeitwhenyoucallmebigpapa
Damn. When sci fi was good. Almost all of these movies are great.
Cere4l
not all 90s sci fi is great though. lots of crap as well
HandoB4Javert
Lawnmower Man. Shorty story by Stephen King. Tortured into a 90 minute mess as they could use Tron style CGI for the 'romantic bit'.
TheGoodReverendDude
but still better than Lawnmower man 2
HandoB4Javert
Sequels that got the green light because someone owed someone else something after losing a bet.
hadadrumstickandmybrainisstillstuck
Isn't it loosely based on the short story Flowers for Algernon?
balidown
Good cop. Bad alien. Big trouble.
Accou
One dorar. You pay now!
FormalMP
This movie was so horrible it came all the way back around and was good some how.
Solomon13
"He's a cop on the edge who threw away the rulebook and lets his gun do the talking, and his gun only knows one loud very word."
TheVampireDante
The Dolph Lungren one "I come in peace" was also titled "Dark Angel", I have a VHS copy of it.
FormalMP
Please tell me you think it is as bad as I do. Although it's so bad it is somehow good/funny to watch.
TheVampireDante
It was terrible, but yeah - it cheeseball'd into being something to watch. The electromagnetic killer disc was worth a laugh.
TheCharrDidAscalon
Fire in the sky is based in a book written by the guy who was abducted. My brother in law grew up in that town and that guy is super serious
blkdjn
Soldier is one of my favorite SF films. Russel's performance is heartbreakingly human and delivered in near silence.
Mrziffle
Unbelievably it got terrible reviews when it came out. One of Kurt Russel's best performances.
CISMaleScumLord
Definitely in my top ten yet so few people that I know have even heard of it.
GreenMonster81
I'm going to kill them all sir.
detour512
The crying scene is great...
Fairdinkums
My favourite is the sawn-off mini guns the bad guys have. Crazy!
Snooj
It was the movie that made me understand what PTSD was and how it affects people.
Tyrannotron
Also, it's set in the Blade Runner universe.
AMediocreSubstituteForDave
I thought it was confirmed to be in the Alien universe?
Tyrannotron
Nope, Blade Runner. But fair confusion, as they are both classic sci-fi directed by Ridley Scott.
blkdjn
That is implied, yes, tho not certain. Todd's service record names places Roy references in BR, but those names are references to myth.
Tyrannotron
The writer has stated it, though
niallage
Interesting mix ranging from bloody awful (e.g. Johnny Mnemonic) to life-changingly amazing (e.g 12 Monkeys)
Solomon13
Johnny Mnemonic is a dumb movie that's fun to watch. There's nothing wrong with that.
niallage
Nothing wrong with it at all. And nothing wrong with me not liking it. 'Tis all good.
Lugh314159
Aw common.... Johnny Mnemonic is /and least/ as good as Time Cop.
niallage
I'll grant you that but it doesn't say much about Time Cop :)
SanFranciscoKnights
Remember how for some reason there's a cybernetic dolphin connected to the internet, and for no reason they release him at the end?
niallage
Your way of putting it made me laugh way more than the movie, and I remember laughing a lot during that movie!
Tyrannotron
Strange Days is a really under appreciated film. Directed by Katherine Bigelow and written by James Cameron, it's very clever, well 1/2
Tyrannotron
acted, and deals with a lot of social issues that remain very relevant today. And you gotta love Michael Wincott's voice. 2/2
yk47
I loved this movie so much and no one I know has seen it !!
Tyrannotron
Make your friends watch it!
yk47
I dont have many these days and most are boring fuckers
Tyrannotron
Shit, that's a bummer. If you live near oregon, I'll be your friend.
xesom
I really like Screamers.... Anyone. Anyone else? No. Okay then.
Muad
A guy who really loves Dick showed it to me once. I guess it was fine, maybe time for another look. Thanks
KillEmWithKindnesss
Mate there is a lot of photos of dicks online, you don't have to bother your friend to see another.
Muad
You misunderstand.. it's the author, like here
