Primer (2006)
Gattaca (1997)
A Boy and his Dog (1975)
Silent Running (1972)
Queen of Blood (1966) *
Planet of the Vampires (1965) *


BTW, Solaris (the original) is 1972, not 1974.

* Cheesy titles, but both atmospheric little gems that helped inspire 1979's Alien.

Superior intelligence doesn't necessarily equate to superior intention.

A couple of good flicks also written by Ib Melchior:

Death Race 2000 (1975), although more of a blood and guts action/comedy flick
The Time Travelers (1964), with great sleight of hand magicians' tricks rather than optical special effects
