Lifeforce (Mathilda May is the hottest nekkid space vampire ever)
Night of the Comet
Bad Taste
Phase IV (trippy 70s film about the collective intelligence of ants taking a group of scientists, studying them, hostage)
Flash Gordon
Heavy Metal
Moon
2001: A Space Odyssey
2010
The Iron Giant
The Day The Earth Stood Still
Invaders From Mars
This Island Earth
Galaxy Quest

damn I forgot about Tron, good one, the original "Matrix" of sorts, I seen Legacy at the theatres and was quite entertained, nice eye candy and choreoagraphy but the story is so-so, Jeff Bridges reprises his typical hippy sagacity persona.

Some English sci-fi classics

Village of the Damned
Children of the Damned
Day of the Triffids
(Hammer Films Quatermass trilogy)
The Quatermass Experiment
Quatermass 2
Quatermass And The Pit

An Italian sci-fi classic

Planet of The Vampires (one of the main source materials that influenced Ridley Scott's Alien)

Television

Twilight Zone
Outer Limits

FYI, Peter Jackson will begin shooting a 2 part, 2 movie adaptation of The Hobbit in February for 2012 and 2013 releases.

Television:

Star Trek and it's many spinoffs.

There have been 11 Star Trek movies made to date.

Star Trek The Motion Picture
Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan
Star Trek III: The Search For Spock
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
Star Trek V: The Final Frontier
Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country

I only like parts 1, 2, and 6 ... parts 3-5 were directed by former Star Trek cast members Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner and the quality difference is evident whereas the other 3 were directed by Robert Wise and Nicolas Meyer. Leonard Nimoy's The Voyage Home wasn't bad actually.

The New Generation movies

Star Trek: Generations
Star Trek: First Contact
Star Trek: Insurrection
Star Trek: Nemesis

I only like the first two entries of the above IMO Insurrection and Nemesis blew. Former New Generation cast member Jonathan Frakes directed First Contact and Insurrection.

And of course we have the new Star Trek movie released theatrically in 2009 which I also enjoyed.

Killer Klowns From Outer Space
Mars Attacks
Invasion of the Bee Girls *lol*
Attack Of The 50 Foot Woman
The Incredible Shrinking Man
Minority Report
Primer
Children of Men
Repo Man
Repo Men
The Faculty
Spaceballs
Space Truckers
Buckeroo Banzai
Cyborg
Universal Soldier
Soldier
X: The Man With X-Ray Eyes
Zardoz
Westworld
Futureworld
Communion
Fire In The Sky
Reign of Fire
The Stepford Wives
Ghosts of Mars (John Carpenter basically remade his own film Assault On Precinct 13 in sci-fi trimmings with disappointing results)

It! The Terror Beyond Space (1958) Script writer Dan O'Bannon took the plots from this b-movie and the Italian b-movie Planet Of The Vampires (1965), combining them together under a slicker larger production ALIEN (1979) with the surreal and sexual biomechanical imagery of H R Giger's bizarre art designs. He also wrote Dark Star (1974), John Carpenter's first film, a low budget parody of space odysseys which contains foreshadows of ALIEN.

The Black Hole
Close Encounters Of The Third Kind
Starman
Eternal Sunshine OF The Spotless Mind
Back To The Future
Jurassic Park

Some cheesy offerings

Death Race 2000
Battle Beyond The Stars
The Ice Pirates
Forbidden World
Galaxy Of Terror

Event Horizon.

Yeah, the uprising is awesome. Excellent dystopian film, this would make the choice double-header with the apocalyptic film The Road. Both have a great deal of realism and avoid the over-the-top action that typifies these sort of films.

I seen this one in theatres, wormholed through hell. I will add Pandorum.
