Screamers (1995)

One of the best PKD's adaptation
I have three cathegories to movies "based" in PKD's work:

First cathegory: "Good PKD Adaptations". The movies are: "Impostor", "Screamers" and "A Scanner Darkly"

Due this comment is for "Screamers", I'll say is a very underrated film. Sometimes slow, but always good. It captures the PKD's dystopian way.

Second cathegory: "Bad PKD adaptations". The movies are: "Blade Runner" and "Total Recall". I dont care what you or they could say (Im not just a PKD's work fan... I have papers and disertations about him and his work) Those are excellent, terrific, tip top Sci-Fi movies BUT ARENT PKD's adaptations. I can accept that maybe are "loosy based" movies... (Warning: Im talking about the link between PKD's work and the movie, not about the movie... I watch "Blade Runner" or "Total Recall" every weekend at lunch) "Paycheck" is a special insert here: is a "Bad PKD Adaptation but a Bad to Death Boring Movie"

Third (the last and the least): "An Insult to PKD works and SciFi readers". The movie is: "Minority Report". The worst PKD adaptation and a bad movie in general terms.

"Dont read PKD with eyes, read it with mind. And you will find VALIS..." (this phrase is registered, dear fellas)

small aspect ratio !?
The biggest problem with this item, is small aspect screen ratio (4:3). It was a huge dissapoitment for me, because I have a 42 inch plasma TV. Aldough, movie itself is an exellent! A story was made by the same writer who wrote "Total recall" or "Blade runner". It's a big reccomandation for SF lovers !
