Netflix is pulling sci-fi nerds in with an extended library of stuff to choose from. Now, we’re not here to tell you to watch “Altered Carbon” (you should) or “The Cloverfield Paradox” (you shouldn’t). Those are both easy sci-fi targets, and while we’re all for taking in as much science fiction as is humanly possible, we want to give you the best stuff that you may not know is actually available. These are the 20 best sci-fi movies on Netflix right now. So get streaming.
The Survivalist
Jesus, it’s almost as if every post-apocalyptic sci-fi film has to be a real bummer. Oh, wait. They all do. “The Survivalist” has every bit as much doom and gloom as “The Road” does, but it also features an attempted wire abortion, because the end of the world is seriously f—ed.
