1990s Sci-Fi Movies That Were Too Good For Their Time

These sci-fi films came out in the 1990s, got ignored, dismissed, or buried at the box office — and then spent the next two decades being quietly, uncomfortably right about everything. Surveillance culture. Algorithmic trading. Designer genetics. Fascism that doesn't announce itself. Simulated reality you choose to live inside. All of it, sitting in films most people never saw. In this video, we're digging up the most prophetic overlooked sci-fi films of the '90s — from William Gibson's cyberpunk internet nightmare to Cronenberg's biological game consoles to Verhoeven's fascist satire that critics called shallow while completely missing the point.
