10 Perfect Sci-Fi Horror Movies You've Never Heard Of

Have you ever taken a car for a joy ride? The appeal of stepping into something that isn't yours and letting your instincts go wild is deeply relatable, whether you have or not. This bizarre yet captivating South African horror banks on that feeling but gives it a nightmarish sci-fi twist.

Fried Barry follows a chaotic odyssey as an alien possesses a drug addict (Barry), taking over his body and going on a journey of discovery in the seedy underbelly of Cape Town. 

You'll need to hold onto your seats when watching this one, as it's a bonkers film that throws subtlety by the wayside. There are gross-out sequences that'll get you squeaming, a twisted yet amusing sense of humour, and a compelling visual style that distorts life in a way that almost makes you feel like an alien in this world.

However, perhaps the most impressive thing about the film is that, despite its bombastic style, there's just enough heart and sentimentality to keep it grounded. It's shocking how drawn into Barry's journey you will be, and by the end you'll be questioning the surprising benefits of alien abduction.
