25. The Andromeda Strain (1971)
Nominated for two Academy Awards, The Andromeda Strain was based on Michael Crichton’s 1969 novel of the same name.
It focuses on a group of scientists working to figure out what unknown virus killed all the citizens of a small town – and it turned out to be extraterrestrial in origin, having crash-landed on Earth on a United States government satellite.
Notably, there was also a 2008 miniseries based on the book, which aired on the A&E Network.
