Sometimes, you don't have to sign up for a trial period or wait 50 years for this or that project to become public domain and be added to the Internet Archive or YouTube. Consider Tubi, a streaming service owned by the Fox Corporation. Thanks to their ad-supported system, you don't have to pay a dime to watch the movie you want from its library! With that in mind, let's take a look at 7 great sci-fi movies that are available for free streaming in May 2024. 7. End of the World Release date: November 20, 2018 IMDb rating: 2.7/10 As a result of numerous solar storms, natural disasters, from tsunamis to awakened volcanoes, hit the entire Earth and especially California. An ordinary family from Los Angeles finds itself in this situation, and now the father and daughter must find a suitable shelter that will give them a chance to survive in the changed natural conditions. 6. Air Release date: August 14, 2015 IMDb rating: 5.1/10 Even before Norman Reedus became the darling of Hideo Kojima, he was snapped up by video game writer and designer Christian Cantamessa. Cantamessa's work isn't limited to games, however, and in 2015 he released the film Air (not to be confused with the 2023 biopic), which stars Reedus alongside Djimon Hounsou and Sandrine Holt. After a catastrophe renders the air on Earth unbreathable, a small group of scientists attempt to survive in pre-built US bunkers. Until one day the equipment they need to survive fails. 5. Geostorm Release date: October 20, 2017 IMDb rating: 5.3/10 Next on the list is an epic disaster movie starring Gerard Butler.

However, one day they malfunction, and now the main character, the designer of those satellites, must prevent the possible extinction of humanity due to a global storm. 4. Underwater Release date: January 10, 2020 IMDb rating: 5.9/10 The plot of this sci-fi horror starring Kristen Stewart revolves around a drilling team conducting research at the bottom of the Mariana Trench. However, an explosion partially destroys their facility, and the cause is not an accident or human error: the surviving employees are now haunted by terrifying creatures that lurk in the deepest reaches of the Pacific Ocean.3. The Machine Release date: April 25, 2014 IMDb rating: 6.0/10 The Machine is an excellent example of how people have conceptualized the problem of artificial intelligence over the past decade. In the story, two scientists have developed an AI for the British military called Machine. Only the Machine refuses to obey the cruel humans for whom this is all just political intrigue.2. Rampage Release date: April 13, 2018 IMDb rating: 6.1/10 Following the success of Journey 2 and San Andreas, Brad Peyton released a new film starring Dwayne Johnson in 2018 that immediately paid off at the global box office.
