Another Sci-Friday Piece

Friends, I’ve always enjoyed science fiction movies and books. Today, I wanted to simply present a list of dystopian sci-fi films. Why focus on the negative side?

In short, I believe one of the best attributes of science fiction is the cautionary tale, the idea that we might be able to present a potentially terrifying future scenario so that we can avoid ending up there.

Thanks once again to the community of writers joining me in this Sci-Friday ongoing experiment:

Dré Labre

for the original idea, and

BrianAlfred1983

,

Rudy Fischmann

Jeff Kinnard

for playing along. If you are reading this and would like to join us, just let me know in the comments or reach out, and we can set it up. These other folks are all good writers in their own right, and if you’re interested in checking their version of Sci-Friday out (top lists of everything from TV shows to board games), they’ll appreciate the support.

Without further ado, here are five dystopian sci-fi films you should see.
