The best science fiction movies from every decade.

Star Crash
Star Crash is a wonky, bottom-feeder Star Wars rip-off from 1978, with an ensemble cast of cult movie icons, including Marjoe “Mausoleum” Gortner, Caroline Munro, Joe “Maniac” Spinell, Christopher Plummer, and—by God—the Hoff himself, David Hasselhoff, pre-"Knight Rider," pre-"Baywatch," but still every bit the sexy-bad muthafucka.

Expedition 33
The name Expedition 33 does tend to have that sci-fi movie feeling, but this is an expedition that really happened. It was a vital stage in human space flight aboard the station. Members from various countries participated during this mission to perform high-class scientific research.

Blade Runner . Top Story - December 2025.
These days, androids might very well dream of electric sheep. In 1982, not so much. Blade Runner takes place six years in our past, as per the present timeline. Other timelines, we don't know. Perhaps there, Replicants rule the lives of meat sacks, and the Imperial Skinjobs are all as beautiful as Rutger Hauer or Daryl Hannah are in Blade Runner.

How Accurate Interstellar Really Is?
When Interstellar hit theaters in 2014, it didn’t just entertain audiences , it rewired our brains. Christopher Nolan didn’t want another sci-fi fantasy. He wanted a film where space looked like space, where gravity behaved like gravity, and where black holes appeared the way the universe actually paints them. And standing behind him was Nobel Prize winning physicist Kip Thorne, whose job was to keep the movie grounded in real physics…at least, as real as physics allows when you’re folding spacetime like origami.

The day the Sun dies...
Control Tower: “Horizon, this is Mission Control. Final systems check complete. Countdown begins in “10…” The cabin thrummed beneath our boots. My heart matched the rhythm of the engines, deep and steady, like a giant taking long breaths.

Stereo and Crimes of the Future
"Jomkin suggests that there must evolve a novel sexuality for a new species of man." — Crimes of the Future Before he became the cinematic master of body horror, David Cronenberg was an experimental student filmmaker who turned out works very much in line with the same sort of fixations explored almost exclusively by J.G. Ballard, whose Crash he later adapted into a film, in 1997. His early films, his first two, Stereo (1969) and Crimes of the Future (1970), explore film technique in documenting the huge, yawning architectural environment of an unspecified hospital or research facility, relegating the performers of the film to almost being secondary actors in a drama defined by geometrical shape—relegating them to the roles of insectile life, pursuing strange, even inscrutable actions, ostensibly being filmed by the watchful, clinical, and coldly detached robotic eye of the viewer, who becomes the de facto research assistant to the director, who seems to have made this film by asking his performers to improvise within the framework of derangement. What was he exploring? one wonders. The environment itself dwarfs the humanity of the filmic subjects, overpowering them in its specter of geometrical dominance and dimension.

Wizards
Wizards is an animated film that is as old as I am. Mark Hamil lends his vocal skills, along with Richard Romanus, who was also in Heavy Metal (1981) as well as in Martin Scorcese's iconic American gangster pic Mean Streets *(1973), alongside Robert Deniro and Harvey Keitel. Before he died, Romanus, in other words, was in some classic films. Wizards is one of them, although we don't say it isn't a troubled ordeal fitting that term "classic" to it. Here's why.

Hollywood has consistently embraced technological advancements, from ancient sound and Technicolor to modern computer-generated imagery (CGI), all of which have reshaped storytelling. However, artificial intelligence (AI) represents a more profound shift, affecting the very core of creative expression.

Alien: Earth: The Retro-Futuristic Revolution Redefining Science Fiction
Science fiction has witnessed countless interpretations of the future, but few have captured the essence of the past projected into the future as Alien: Earth does.

Midnight and the Sacred Bone; Or, Falling Through Space Like a Glittering Jewel, a Mote in the Eye of God
2001: A Space Odyssey is the intercession between the Divine Will, the Cosmic Consciousness, and the manifestation of that will on the material plane. It is a story, yet it is also a subconscious flickering of communication—a thing manifested because, in Heaven and Earth, all things that can be conceived, all permutations of “reality,” are rendered possible before we “experience” them in the solid, physical, three-dimensional “meat space” of our lives.
