From alien invaders to journeys to distant worlds to Earth the day after tomorrow, science fiction stories have been the inspiration for some of the best and the worst movies and television shows.

Wollheim, The Forbidden by Clive Barker, We Can Remember for You Wholesale by Philip K. Dick, Nightflyers by George R. R. Martin, Air Raid by John Varley, Sandkings by George R. R. Martin
