These days, UNKLE's James Lavelle has been making a name for himself by creating cinematic music. Most recently, he, along with Pablo Clement, has scored music for the forthcoming 'X-Files' film, landing the closing theme in addition to a remix of the series' theme song. Lavelle, as befitting UNKLE's science-fiction- and fantasy-derived imagery, is a sci-fi buff, which qualifies him to count down his top five favorite films in the genre.

1. 'Blade Runner,' Final Cut: Ridley Scott's masterpiece -- the greatest visual view of the future, Harrison Ford's greatest role finally completed to perfection.

2. 'THX1138,' Director's Cut: George Lucas' first film, set around control and paranoia. Its Lucas' most individual work, with so much resonating in today's society. A massive influence.

3 . '2001; A Space Odyssey': Stanley Kubrick's epic voyage into the unknown -- made before man had been to the moon and responsible for the original concept of the Internet and modern computers. This is genius!

4. 'The Empire Strikes Back': The ultimate in the 'Star Wars' saga -- to me, the greatest kids' movie ever. This changed my life as a child. Its dark, relenting struggle between good and evil, the fact it defies most modern children's films by not having a happy ending and its amazing visual use of effects blew my mind -- good times!

5. 'Alien': [H.R.] Giger's visual genius combined with Ridley [Scott]'s attention to detail and amazing use of what you don't see can be more frightening [than showing it]. Changed the way we looked at the future -- no one in space can hear you scream!
