Moon is in my Top 10 favorites of all time, and Snowpiercer is fabulous.
I would probably say the most underrated and surprising sci-fi movie I’ve ever watched is Another Earth.
The Thing is excellent. Equilibrium was a huge disappointment and Snowpiercer was just typical Hollywood dime a dozen. Haven’t seen the other three.
I LOVE Dark City and rewatch it every now and again! Rufus Sewell and Kiefer Sutherland were excellent in this movie. It’s one of those movies where the more you watch it, the more you notice… and the more you appreciate the story! I also loved the Thing. I will have to look for the other movies to try.
Hello. I have to agree that The Thing is an awesome sci fi flick. Been waiting for a sequel – Another Thing, More Things, Thing 2… Probably my all time favourite along with Avatar and the Terminator and Alien/Predator series.
Saw the prequel by the same name (2011, a Norwegian director). Better special effects but essentially the same storyline. 6 out of 10.
Another box office flop that I loved is Outlander (2008) starring Jim Caviezel, Sophia Myles, Jack Huston, John Hurt and Ron Perlman. Anything with Ron has to be watched IMHO!
Dark City was ok and have not viewed the others – yet.
Cheers
The author clearly had no idea what the word “underrated” really means. John Carpenter’s The Thing is probably the most overrated science fiction film of all time. Moon received tremendous critical acclaim when it was released and quickly became a cult favorite. Dark City was overlooked by most critics except for Roger Ebert, and is now regarded as one of the best SF films of the nineties.
