Top 5 Space Horror Films That Are Absolutely Terrifying

Описание: In space, no one can hear you scream—but the silence is what really gets to you. In today’s Top 5 movie countdown, Barb and Ryan from The Retro Index are exploring the most isolating sci-fi horror movies ever made. We’re indexing the space horror films that master the feeling of being trapped millions of miles from home. From the legendary claustrophobia of Ridley Scott’s Alien to the psychological nightmare of Event Horizon, we’re breaking down why these sci-fi thrillers are so effective at inducing pure dread.

We’re traveling back to 1958 to look at the "Alien" blueprint, It! The Terror from Beyond Space, and diving into the surreal, memory-haunted halls of Andrei Tarkovsky’s Solaris. We also analyze the high-stakes survival and cosmic horror of Danny Boyle’s Sunshine, where the sun itself becomes a terrifying, god-like entity. If you love space movies, creature features, and atmospheric horror, join us as we rank the films that prove the vastness of the universe is the ultimate prison.
