10. Blade Runner (1982)

Getting a number of 80s movies here.

Blade Runner is a Ridley Scott movie based on the novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, but the movie varies quite a bit to the point where they are essentially two different entities (for instance, the film's noticeable lack of Mercerism and electric sheep).

I enjoy this film for a number of reasons: the atmosphere, the setting, the characters (Roy Batty in particular). It's a dystopian cyberpunk story that deals with life and what it means to live, as the main character butts heads with rogue androids that he's hunting.

Along with Labyrinth, it's another film that I will flick to if I happen to see it on TV.
