Classic SF Movies Everyone Should See at Least Once

95 movies, including a couple of real clunkers, that illustrate the scope and variety of filmed SF. Comic book movies, anime, and movies based on video games have been excluded because they should have lists of their own; Star Wars 1-3 and 7-9 have been excluded because they suck; "The Wrath of Khan" is by far the best of the Star Trek series and can be taken to represent the entire oeuvre.
