A world broken by plague sends a team back in time to prevent the virus from spreading.
It’s better than a B-movie but definitely not A-quality. I would class this as a good TV-movie. Worth a watch if you’re into science fiction.
In the year 2204

A new wave of tailor-made drugs sweeps over Detroit, whose even bigger problem is a corporate takeover of the city.
While interesting, it’s not ground-breaking like the first was.

A mortally-wounded cop is used as the foundation to build a police robot meant to be a tool for control but whose artificially-repressed memories and inerrant awesomeness surface to save the day.
This was a great movie in the day, and I’d bet I’m biased in saying it’s still great.

A military science experiment haunts local Yugoslavians when the infected turn into madmen.
An amateurish zombie movie with nothing interesting to add to the genre. It’s worth a watch if you’re zombie movies, otherwise don’t bother.
aka 2012: Apocalypse of the Dead

A corporate drone goes mad and spirals into psychopathy, violently lashing out at society.
An absolutely mandatory film. As heavy-handed as its anti-corporatism is, it has fantastic subtleties requiring multiple viewings. There are very few movies which can achieve this level of watchability. This is absolutely an A-class dudebro movie.
Based on Fight Club – (1996 book), by Chuck Palahniuk

A nerd fulfils his dream of being on the high school football team and has a crush on a geek girl, a desperately lonely single mother and an ex-assassin neighbour.
Not a dudebro movie and not a chick flick. I’m not sure where this stands, but it’s watchable.

A hooker is picked up by a business man and they end up spending a week together, encouraging both her transformation and his.
Strongly disliked. With overtones of all manner of female masterbatory bullshit from hypergamy to princess-saving, this film is a tooth-grinder.

A struggling writer takes drugs, giving him incredible results with unforeseen consequences.
This is an uncomfortably-great movie. It’s semi-horror in the sense of a tactile empathy the viewer has. I don’t know that I’d consider this mandatory viewing, because it would strongly depend on the viewer. I don’t think this would be a “love it or hate it” movie, because it’s .. just odd. It’s original, and that alone would make it mandatory viewing for some.
If you like this movie, definitely check out John Dies at the End – (2012 movie).

A one-room horror where angels descend to destroy all of mankind because god left, but a baby is to be the saviour of all mankind.
Meh. This isn’t a particularly good movie.
Dominion – (2014 show) is based on Legion. I wouldn’t consider this movie mandatory viewing before watching Dominion. In fact, I would recommend against viewing this movie because the series is so much better.

A man escapes death by teleporting himself to an extremely-distant planet, whose residents went mad from an unknown plague.
Really great for what it is, but its genre is not my cup of tea.
