The Best Halloween Sci-Fi Horror Movies According to a Gothic Lit Expert
Neil McRobert, an expert with a PhD in Contemporary Gothic Fiction, shares his list of the scariest sci-fi horror movies for Halloween. From weird to “what?”, check it out via New Scientist
I’m a horror nerd by trade. I completed a PhD on the subject and now I am the creator of Talking Scared, a podcast of conversations with the biggest names in the field. To settle on a concise list of science fiction horror films for spooky season, I had to winnow down the cross-pollinating history of the two genres. After all, horror and science fiction have had their tentacles entwined since Frankenstein’s monster first opened his yellowed eyes. My solution is to focus on films in which science and technology are the most substantial source of terror. That excludes a lot of amazing movies – there is no Alien, The Thing or Nope on this list – but here, in reverse order, are my choices for the greatest science fiction horror movies of recent decades
