  • The Man Who Fell to Earth
  • Blade Runner
  • Terminator
  • Mad Max
  • A Boy and His Dog

  • The 13th Floor
  • Gattica (for the mood if not the plot)
  • Logans' Run
  • Waterworld
  • Highlander Series (all different but...)

A Boy and His Dog is based on the Harlan Ellison story, yes? Was it a decent retelling (if you read the story)?

Cool! Another Waterworld-fan sighting. :) You and bertie should talk (I have yet to see it myself).

I admit to *trying* to read Ellison and never enjoying him over much. I find that while Sci Fi is my favotite movie genre it is my least favorite reading material. I think this is because alot of Science Fiction is just very badly written- (and bad literature is bad but somehow bad movies are often alot of fun) and when well written, like Ellison, it is often just too disturbing for me. :) Anyone else have a similar reaction?
