citation note: (Science fiction film (Extrapolative film, Future film, Sci-fier, Sci-fi film, SF film). A clear-cut definition is not easy to formulate because science fiction encroaches on the adjacent genres of fantasy and horror, very often blending freely with them. For the sake of simplicity, science fiction is best defined as a genre that deals with imaginary journeys, imaginary worlds and societies from the standpoint of credible possibility presented in rational scientific terms. Science fiction films are also made of aliens, bug-eyed monsters and creatures galore; robots, computers and other technological advances. Subgenres: Dystopian films; Future barbarian movies; Invasion films; Period SF films; Political extrapolation films; Prehistoric fantasies; SF comedies; SF disaster films; SF horror films; SF sex films; Social extrapolation film; Space operas; Space travel films; Time travel films)
