Most of my favourite books/movies/TV shows are Sci fi - I love Mary Shelley, slaughterhouse five, annihilation (both the book and the movie), The Thing, x files, the invasion, and the OA. This feels like a pretty wide variety of writing styles when I line them up but 90% of the sci fi I read/watch I just don’t enjoy at all. It’s a shame because when I love something sci fi I feel like it’s changed my whole life, but when it comes to finding new things I can just enjoy its easier to go through other genres. Is anyone else like this? Does anyone have reccomendations based on what I do like?

    I’ve been going through all these suggestions with my friend trying to figure out where to start, and we ended up watching Coherence at like 2am last night. I loved it thanks so much for recommending!

      Awesome, glad you enjoyed it! The “making-of” info around the movie is pretty wild too, especially that there was no script. The full version of Coherence Explained by Director Jim Byrkit (trailer) was pulled from YouTube but it was pretty interesting.

      It’s more horror than sci-fi but I also really enjoyed Triangle (2009) if you run out of everything else to watch :)
