I'm really excited about SW too! Thanks for the suggestions for new additions. Here's the verdicts:

I added The Chronicles of Riddick Trilogy.

The Resident Evil films I'm going to say no to. I haven't seen the movies, but I read through the Wiki article and IMO zombies fall under horror/fantasy because they don't have a strictly "science" aspect to them, if that makes sense. If there's further information I should be aware of and/or you want to make an argument for it, please feel free to do so and I'll reconsider.

The Fifth Element I'm on the fence about. Obviously a lot of it is classic scifi-- futuristic, distant planets, etc. etc.-- but the stones representing the four elements strike me as very mystical/fantasy as opposed to science fiction, and they're a major part of the plot of the movie. Convince me? IDK.

But the zombies cloned her and became all CLONES of the main character! Not normal zombies, LOL.
