Damn you set the bar really high already, kinda hard to top those.

Some other good sci-fi movies:
Jurrasic Park (first one)
Terminator 2
Ghost in the Shell

The Thing (the 1982 movie, not the shit 2011 prequel of the same name, why would they name it the same argh)

Ghostbusters

Alien
Back to the Future

The Fifth Element
Robocop

Donnie Darko

Swordfish

Total Recall
Man with the Screaming Brain (written, directed, and starring Bruce Campbell)
Bubba Ho-Tep

Idiocracy

Event Horizon
A Scanner Darkly

Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (such an amazing Kubrick film)


Kinda hard to think of ones that aren't already well-known, but maybe one of these will hit.

Wasn't Swordfish a crime flick? Been more than a decade since I last seen it.

Other than that, there isn't much I can add to your list but these for me:

The Abyss

Gattaca

Under The Skin (Which was a pretty weird one for me)

Predator

Contact

Mad Max (Mel Gibson's)

Dark City

The Mist

Planet of the Apes (The classics, the new ones are fine too I guess)

Invasion of the Body Snatchers

I don't know how well known most of them are (aside from the obvious).

Oh yeah, there was this recent film about a normal suburb family where strange things happened in their house, and they just wouldn't believe it was aliens until the end. I have seen it twice but for the life of me cannot remember the name, or it's cast.
