The cinema of science fiction began to mature in the 1950s, concurrent with the arrival of the Cold War and the Atomic Age, as well as the growing sophistication of the literature. But it was during the 1960s that the genre really began to expand in different directions, still heavily influenced by the ideological paranoia and existential dread of the previous decade, but finding even more distinctive expressions of it.

I agree with all of these but Barbarella. It's hard to say it's underrated when it's such a huge cult classic. Duran Duran is even named after the villain.

Good to see The Power get a mention here. I have always been astonished at how little known and recognised it is. Deserves much more.

Good, solid list otherwise.
