The Mad Science Movie Awards: 58 Films, So Many Bad Ideas

We close out our Mad Science series the only way we know how: with a very serious, deeply prestigious and completely unofficial Mad Science Film Awards. After 58 films and more than a century of sci-fi cinema, we look back at the scientists, monsters, labs, experiments and terrible decisions that defined the season. From Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and The Invisible Man to The Fly, Re-Animator, Jurassic Park, Get Out and Poor Things, we trace how mad science evolved from gothic cautionary tales to atomic-age anxiety, body horror, corporate genetics, surveillance, consent and control. Categories include Best Mad Scientist, Biggest Ego in a Lab Coat, Most Unethical Experiment, Best Creation, Best Lab, Hidden Gem and the big one: Best Mad Science Movie. Plus we unveil what we will be covering the next series of Jounrey Through Sci-fi! 🚀 Join The JTSF Logbook Recommendations, discoveries and updates from our journey through sci-fi cinema: journeythroughscifi.beehiiv.com Visit our website https://www.journeythroughscifi.com/ Email Us!
