Flicks and Swizzle Sticks – SciFi Movies You Haven’t Seen



Welcome to another episode of Flicks and Swizzle Sticks with me, your host, Nikki. I want to thank you all for continuing to listen to me jabber on about movies that I like. Keep it up and I’ll do my best to keep you entertained! A big congrats to Pixiey for winning the giveaway for her comment on the Cult Classics show from last month. Pixiey, your copy of Rocky Horror is in the mail and I hope you enjoy it!

Tonight, Mike joined me to talk about SciFi movies that you probably haven’t seen, but should! We pilfered “best of SciFi” lists online and selected the following three movies, none of which I had ever seen: Dark City, Moon, and Brazil. They were all interesting, even when they were confusing. Spoiler alert! Brazil was my favorite hands down, but give the show a listen and see if you agree with me.

  1. I really enjoyed Dark City. Bonus – Jennifer Connelly sings a damn fine sexy song, too! Haven’t seen Brazil, but have it on my list. Great show, Nik.

  2. I’m a massive fan of Brazil – Dark City is moving to the top of movies to watch once I get the dvd player set up again.

  3. What a fun show!! Thank you for my awesome movie!! I am going to have to say I have not seen any of these, but Dark City is the one I am going to check out first!! Tell Roxie (hopefully spelling that right) that I said hello and need to see a picture of her on your fb wall!! =)

  4. I bloody loved this show! Even though I haven’t seen any of these yet!

    They sound good, and OMG Jennifer Connelly is HOT! ๐Ÿ˜€

    Your were hilarious as always!

    WALL-E! I freaking love that movie, I think you definitely need to do a show on it ๐Ÿ˜‰

    I’m SO looking forward to the next show! ๐Ÿ˜€

  5. I enjoyed the show! We have Dark City and Moon and think both are brilliant! Never seen Brazil but now have it on my list to check out. I will have to think of some older sci -fi movies. Soylent Green was a good choice from amy.

  6. Dark City is one of the few films I own on DVD. I love to watch it with people who have never seen it before. The creepy people remind me of the Buffy episode Hush’s The Gentlemen.

    Brazil… crazy about it. The first film I ever saw multiple times in a movie theatre.

    And you’ve convinced me to watch Moon.

    Also, I have walked outside with a cat on my shoulder. But not near a busy intersection.

  7. My favorite of the three is Moon. I second Amy’s recommendation of Soylent Green! My all time favorite SF movie is still Blade Runner.
