6. Nope
Jordan Peele added a hefty dose of sci-fi into his horror cauldron with Nope, and proved once again that few filmmakers working today are able to subvert genre so cleverly and insightfully. Taking on the idea of “spectacle” with a strong cautionary note about the price of recklessly chasing fame, the film was an alien-invasion film like no other, giving us memorably unique characters and plenty of frights. Check it out on Peacock.
