OK, this is my favorite stuff. true sci-fi expands the mind, inputs new ideas and thought patterns into one's brain.
Some cyberpunky movies
HARDWARE - low-budget cyberpunk movie. post-a[pocalyptic scavenger finds an old army robot in pieces and brings it home for his girlfriend, a sculptor, to use. the robot rebuilds itself as programmed and chaos ensues. very claustrophobic and beautifully shot. washed out colors. guest appearances by Lemmy Kilmister and Iggy Pop. Great soundtrack includes PIL, Motorhead, ministry...
EVENT HORIZON - Lawrence Fishburn stars in this movie about a ship that travelled to the far reaches of the universe and has returned. His crew go to explore it. extremely taut and freaky movie. I had to stop it a couple of times to chill out. maybe I am a pussy but it scared me!
Dark City - A man awakes to find the world around him shifting and chaniging while everyone else sleeps. Crazy fucking movie.
I second a lot of the choices listed above. all good stuff.
Akira
Soylent Green
Ghost In The Shell
