eXistenZ - Got a lot of that really gnarly Cronenberg-ian imagery and distortion of reality, but there's way too many plot twists in the back half for the narrative to really hit like it could. A lot of great actors here, but none of them at their best.
Silent Running - Love the chunky 1970s futurism, Bruce Dern, and the overall message. It is a bit heavy-handed, though, and while I like the idea of hippie botanist Dern hanging out with 3 robots on an empty spaceship, I don't think it does quite enough to make it fully engaging during those parts.
