"A Good Sci Fiction Movie with least Special Effects?"
After sitting through 12 minutes of a god awful cyberpunk short, I'm wondering how do ppl make Science Fiction flicks that don't revolve around cool looking things that are either expensive and time consuming to make or beyond expensive to animate.
Is this possible?
Horror can be done very well with minimal special effects.
Fantasy and Sci Fiction, I'm can't think of a good one.

i was kinda impressed by the effects, but the film was not that expensive compared to others of the past decade, and you're right that it mostly deals with the characters (and the close quarters they're living in).

Moon Primer Sleep Dealer Gattaca Alien (the first one) The Thing (sci-fi/horror) Dark City (it's been a while since I've seen this though) Solaris Children of Men Splice (save for Dren the monster, that was it in terms of special effects) The Fly (save for jeff goldblum turning into a fly, the transporter and what not, it was limited also in special effects)

It's Noir/Lovecraft vibe is what keeps it together. Damn shame it came out around the same time as the Matrix, it might have been more than just a cult film.
