This documentary-style sure doesn't get to the point.

Shatner hallucinates about Spok.

A nothing of a short movie.

Two low-budget filmmakers take on the story of a supposedly-abducted child who was returned a cripple.

It's quite good as a drama but ultimately unsatisfying as anything else. The final strides of it do not work.

Survivors of a ruined Earth cast away to a new Earth, aptly called "New Earth", but some people are stupid and prefer extinction (for that ship).

An experimental undersea oil drilling rig is sent to investigate a downed US military submarine with nuclear missiles.

Phenomenal and showing very little age.

  • Inappropriately-rated; PG-13, but with self-harm and a boob.

Alien refugees come to Earth, only to become squatters and criminals while the world looks on. After 20 years, the local government tries to relocate them to better facilities only to discover alien technologies they had been salvaging and repairing.

A unique setting and good story. It's not a super-fantastic movie, but it's definitely highly recommended. It has a high "ick" factor.

A mad scientist comes to collect an animal experiment, but it is sentient and has friends.

A mediocre superhero movie, which in today's times makes it spectacular. Highly recommended as a bubblegum movie.
