The three pillars of 20th Century Studios’ sci-fi movies are the Alien, Predator, and Planet of the Apes franchises. The same is true for Hulu, even though it’s very easy to get tired of all of those titles when the streamer doesn’t offer other alternatives. Thankfully, Hulu does have a variety of options at the moment, including the unconventional sci-fi thriller, Donnie Darko.
Meanwhile, The Fly is a sci-fi/horror story that’s just as disturbing in 2024 as it was in 1986. And to close out this month’s new additions, J.J. Abrams’ Super 8 takes all of the 1980s sci-fi tropes out for a fresh spin. Other films from the 20th Century Studios lineup round out our selections for the best sci-fi movies on Hulu right now, which you can find below.

If you’re looking for more films to watch, remember that Hulu is part of the Disney Bundle. That includes the basic Hulu subscription (with ads), Disney+, and ESPN+, all for just $14 a month. That’s a great deal, and you don’t even have to travel to the future for it.
