Phil Hardy’s Science Fiction

Although I did make a list of omitted films (the first leaf is missing, and it starts with Death Ray (Gianfranco Baldanello (1967)), pre-internet, Phil Hardy’s The Overlook Film Encyclopedia: Science Fiction (originally published in Britain by Aurum as The Aurum Film Encyclopedia: Science Fiction) was one of the most comprehensive guides to the genre from 1895-1995 (earlier editions were published in 1984 and 1991). Other volumes include The Western, Horror, and The Gangster Film. I have The Western because I got a really good price on it*, but still don’t have the others. Hardy died unexpectedly in 2014 at the age of 69. Although he was the editor and not the author (at least not exclusively–contributors included Denis Gifford, Anthony Masters, Paul Taylor, and Paul Willemen), there are enough film websites that it seems unlikely another book encyclopedia will arrive. Not every film covered here was marketed as science fiction, and sometimes not all films in a series (e.g. James Bond) are included for lacking science fiction content (I don’t understand the omission of George A, Romero’s Day of the Dead when the others are included–it’s more SF than Night, and any SF content in Dawn is carryover from the previous film). Foreign language films in which the original title was not known to the editors are rendered in italics. Stylistically, they conform to my other lists with director and year in parentheses. Some titles have been silently corrected, and sometimes I’ve included additional aka titles if they were common home video releases.

Unlike other lists, I’ve seen so many films in the encyclopedia that here I will list the films I still have not seen: it will make for easy cut and paste when and if I do. (Many I want to see; some sound awful, and I couldn’t care less.) I’m trying not to request so many from the public library so that I have time to watch VHS and DVD in my collection that I never have, although to my credit, most of those listed here came in partially watched collections

Hardy says he lists the films by release year (although other sources show that he used the copyright year in some cases, which is often the previous year for films released early in the year, Metropolis being a classic example–the world premiere was January 10, 1927, but it is often called a 1926 film, including by Hardy), and alphabetically within the release year.

1895-1919

⁸Appendix 8 includes a list of “all” sound Westerns deemed not important enough to appear in the main text (The Western is the shortest volume, but also the first), but it lists no films made after 1980, suggesting it was not revised when the rest of the book was. I made a copy of that list here, but there are a number of titles listed separately by Hardy that have been identified as the same film and could be listed only once: https://www.listchallenges.com/all-other-sound-westerns-1929-1980 . IMDb says I’ve rated 72 Westerns. Many are from before or after the book’s time frame, and a few are obscure (e.g. Mountain Charlie (George A. Stapleford, 1982)). (By contrast, as of this writing, IMDb says I’ve rated 779 science fiction films, 1,033 fantasy films, and 540 horror films. Of course there is a huge amount of overlap, so it’s unsurprising that I’ve rated 1,395 comedies and 1,841 dramas. )

I’ve recently acquired Horror volume.. I’m not sure about The Gangster Film in terms of quantity of films seen. I’ve only seen it in bookstores (not recently), not the public library. I made lists (often expanded) based on these books for listchallenges.com. The horror genre exploded in the 1980s and 1990s in terms of quantity of releases, and this volume seems less comprehensive than the other two. Making those lists, as with more recent science fiction films, turned into a long-term project.

The lists were expanded with help from the following:

The Internet Movie Database (advanced search by genre and year)
Moviefone
Wikipedia
Thai World View
The Bloody Pit of Horror/Justin on Letterboxd (particularly for Chinese, Taiwanese, Hong Kong, Thai, and Indonesian films)
Cinema Jadoo (for Indian films)
nauru-1 on The Internet Movie Database (especially for including titles that IMDb hadn’t categorized as horror and for his lists of films that are “sometimes considered horror”)
Google What to Watch (Some of the more oddball in terms of genre came from there–e.g. Alive, Awakenings, Goodfellas, Schindler’s List, Life Is Beautiful, Braveheart, L.A. Confidential, Children of Heaven, Saving Private Ryan, American Beauty, What Dreams May Come as horror films–though I wouldn’t necessarily consider them horror, it seems a reasonable case could be made for these. Some of their suggestions that I refused to include as horror were Good Will Hunting (although Wikipedia says that it was conceived as a thriller in early drafts), Wide Awake (although death is a theme), and The Story of Us (I’ve never seen it–IMDb’s parent guide says it has no violence, and the only intense scenes are yelling while intoxicated). It also suggested that Braveheart and Rob Roy be included as Westerns, which kind of makes sense with a stretch of the imagination–films set in the Australian Outback are considered Westerns, why not Scotland?)

I am hesitant to do lists for 2000-present simply because of the sheer numbers. IMDb lists 616 horror films released in 2000, with increasing numbers each year exceeding 3,300 for 2010. The same year it lists 1,185 science fiction films. As you can see above, I broke the 2000s in half because there were 1,201 between 2000 and 2004 alone. It’s like each year should have its own list rather than going in decades or even 20+ year periods. The numbers haven’t reduced. While it currently lists about 1,500 horror films for 2024, for 2023, it has 5,200. Even without agumenting it with titles from other sites, the total number of horror films IMDb lists from 2000-2009 is 13,540. Science fiction has a more reasonable 6,707 for the same period, and I’ve already done the first half of the decade. For 2010-2019, it has 50,226 horror films and 27,660 science fiction films, and there is usually quite a bit of overlap. Contrast this with Westerns where 2000-2023 has 5,502, and these are all with TV and podcast episodes removed from the search. It’s really too much work to do without getting paid, not to mention that the lists are already too long to attract much interest.
