Top 100 Dystopian Movies
These are the top 100 dystopian movies that I have watched & rated since joining IMDb in July 2016, well at least according to me anyway. This is not a complete list of everything I have watched ever as my memory isn't that good but is a complete list since joining and thus keeping track. I have them listed in order from my favourite down.
