Science Fiction in Horror and Fantasy

Author: eawood Header artwork by: vladmrk

When one thinks of creatures that lurk in the realms of horror and fantasy, an often overlooked detail is how science influences their creation and how action and adventure bring their narrative to life.

Take the case of the Mummy, an age-old concept of fear of the dead coming back to life. To the ancient Egyptians, mummification itself was a form of science rooted in their religious beliefs. While Universal put a fantastical new spin on this iteration seen in 2017’s the Mummy, it still kept true to the roots that scared theater goers of yesteryear—the walking dead powered by mysticism. But however powerful this mysticism, it gained control of biological science to reanimate this corpse and bring the Mummy back to life. Every creature, monster or character from the shadows of a nightmare can find its origin in the annals of Dark Science.

Take a look behind the scenes on how The Mummy blended mysticism and science fiction in the creation of Dr. Jekyll’s lab - The Prodigium.

Dr. Frankenstein's lab in Mary Shelley's 1819 novel was the birthplace of a new kind of science. In the book Mary Shelley uses Frankenstein's experiment as a way to explore the limitations of scientific progress, and to ask questions about the ethics of it.

Mad Scientist thegryph

Specifically, can science resurrect the dead, and more to the point, should it? Generations of storytellers after Shelley would incorporate examples of science being used to dark, foreboding ends. Not least among them was the Robert Louis Stevenson character Dr. Jekyll, and his famously destructive alter-ego, Mr. Hyde.

Dr. Jekyll's lab, housed in London's Museum of Natural History, also serves as a headquarters for a secret group dedicated to finding and neutralizing evil. It is called The Prodigium. In The Mummy, Dr. Jekyll has been transformed from merely being a scientist with a dark secret to an academic who specializes in evil "Mary Shelley... explore the limitations of scientific progress, and to ask questions about the ethics of it." and spends his life working to hunt it down. The Prodigium is the venue where Jekyll conducts his studies and stores artifacts. Having access to the resources of the museum allows him to perform in-depth research. Among the many curiosities seen inside the lab you'll find the skull of Dracula as well as The Creature From the Black Lagoon's arm.

Studying such auspicious and dangerous creatures is far from what constitutes a routine scientific endeavor. Just like Dr. Frankenstein flipping the switch and electrifying his cadaver back to life, this is a different kind of science with its own set of dark consequences. Dark science is what happens when science goes too far. For Dr. Frankenstein, it meant inadvertently creating a monster. For historical characters in fiction like Dr. Faust, it meant making a deal with the devil in order to discern the secrets of the universe. The Prodigium ultimately may have a noble goal driving it, but that doesn't mean that it's safe, or that unintended consequences can't spring out of it.

Creature from the black lagoon ogilvie

The idea of dark science originates from exploring the connection between scientific progress and the potential for danger. By trying to break the barrier between life and death, Dr. Frankenstein creates a monster. In looking for evidence of a long-lost species, the scientists in The Creature From the Black Lagoon incur the wrath of a mysterious menace. In Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea men use new technology to explore new depths and get more than they bargained for. In The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells, a super advanced civilization from Mars attacks earth with metal walkers equipped with hi-tech weapons. Science has long provided a foundation for tales of monsters, evil forces, and other mortal perils. When Mary Shelley sat down to write Frankenstein, one of the ideological "Dark science originates from exploring the connection between scientific progress and the potential for danger."questions she wrestled with was the idea that although progress in society followed from knowledge—like diseases being cured, or transportation improving—there was no inherently good guiding principle underpinning that progress. In other words, technological advances could be used for evil just as easily as they could be used for good. That truth opened up all kinds of possibilities, especially for storytellers looking to tell harrowing tales. Many of the most recognizable horror stories and thriller titles of all time—Frankenstein, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, War of the Worlds, and The Creature From the Black Lagoon among them—deal with man's pursuit of knowledge leading to terrifying outcomes, or show how technological progress can have deadly consequences.

Although Mary Shelley, Jules Verne, and H.G. Wells are considered among the founding authors of science fiction, the genre didn't exist as we know it when these writers were alive. These authors laid the groundwork for later science fiction storytellers, and they also founded a long trend of combining speculative, fictional science with Horror or Gothic storytelling. The common element that stories traversing these two genres almost always shared? Action, and plenty of it. It's only natural for conflict to arrive when weaponized machines start taking over cities, or when re-animated corpses begin terrorizing the living, but heroism and action-packed adventures also provided a solid underpinning for these kinds of stories, which manage to explore profound questions about society and progress while still providing a thoroughly entertaining experience. "It's only natural for conflict to arrive when weaponized machines start taking over cities"Dr. Jekyll is perhaps the perfect embodiment of this kind of blending. His work requires putting himself in harm's way, but it also requires the strong mental faculties of science. And the fact that he has a violent alter-ego ensures that chaos and action will follow wherever he goes. Dr. Jekyll's future path of horror, science fiction, and action will definitely be worth keeping an eye on.

1. When I was kid, I think Predator (1st movie, Arnold Schwarzenegger) as horror, and "Back to The Future" (Michael J. Fox) as my fantasy of science fiction fave.
2. Time Travel Machine... First I'll go back to first human created (Adam and Eve) then I'll cut and burn the tree of the knowledge of good and evil esp. all forbidden fruits in those Garden... So no more knowledge or science to create time machine... LoL.. 
3. Hmm, biological and chemical/pharmacies weapons are more dangerous than physics weapons (nuclear, bomb, bullet, etc) or electronics technologies (A.I, robots, machines, etc)

3. There are so many examples of misuse of science that scares me but I'll go with genetic manipulation. Of people, animals, plant life, diseases/bacteria etc. Some examples or genetic manipulation are very useful, like gene therapy. However genetic manipulation in general, changing things that we have not even begun to understand and in the hands of those less moral or loss intelligent then is ideal, the amount of damage could be enormous.

1.  I always enjoyed Resident Evil, the idea of manipulating virus/bacteria/ etc... to find cures, or improve quality of life, or possible transformation for supernatural powers?  Part of the reason I got into the sciences for college.  I'm not talking about the zombies, but the more complex powerful creature as a result from Umbrella's research!

2.  Hard to say, it would be awesome if there some way to shape shift into animals or other things.

3.  I'm all for improving health, but there's a part of improving health too much, where population sizes become unsustainable.  Or becoming something like Brave New World, because money is able to buy status.  Or similar to the hunger games where it's used as a tool of power to discriminate.  Very much so real world problems we face today.

...The Mummy isn't science fiction, it's just a fantasy thriller. That's like calling "The Relic" a sci-fi film. There's nothing speculative or sciencey about an Egyptian Lich.

That being said:

1. A deep cut for the machine, Bessie, from "They'd Rather Be Right," which can alter the human cellular structure to remove all impurities via exposure to Universal objective truth...if you can accept how different it is from reality!

Question 3: A misuse of science that scares me. What would that be? I think probably the kind of science that allows for proliferation of highly destructive weapons might be one example. I also worry about how science has been used to create more intricate kinds of surveillance in the last several years since Sept. 11, 2001. So-called "smart TVs" that can record and store conversations seem like not only a waste of time, but a unique kind of intrusion from opportunistic corporate interests and from the government.

I was just having a conversation (albeit on FB) about the scariest movies you've ever seen, and the one that sprung to mind for me was "Event Horizon" which came out in 1996. I loved everything about the movie, the set design, the lighting, the photography, and the sense that it was building layers of impending doom that no one was going to escape from. I kept thinking at the time and since that I wanted my artwork to have the kinds of light and dark and color contrasts I saw in that film. It's only been recently that I've been able to get my execution to a point where I can begin to do that. Of course my current subject matter tends not to go that dark. But I would say "Event Horizon" is a great combination of sci-fi influenced horror. One could say that the theme of scientists exploring space and finding things that are truly terrifying is well worn, but I think it was done quite effectively here.

1) The use of the T-virus concept in such games and films as Resident Evil or the military virus concept used in many Zombie movies.

2) Reverse engineer my DNA to remove the effects of Arthritis on my body. No.

  • What is your favorite example of a science fiction influence in a horror or fantasy story (movies, TV, books, comics, etc.)?

My absolute favorite movie would be the 1979 Alien - We are naturally scared of things we don't understand and if that something has sharp teeth and is invincible then we might just shouldn't have poked at it to begin with. 

  • If you could create or manipulate science/technology to better your life, what would you do, and would you do it regardless of the consequences?

I would. If it could better my life and maybe help others too then I'd not care about the consequences for as long as I would be the only one to pay the price. My decision: my responsibility. 
I'd love to mess with energy in some way. Maybe create a new clean energy source? Or maybe I could mess with my own DNA? Also: someone should definitely create a cure for cancer. 

  • Is there an example of a potential misuse of science that scares you?

There are several things that scare me about psychology experiments. Some of those were just horrible and cruel and shouldn't have been allowed even if they gave us valuable knowledge.

  • What is your favorite example of a science fiction influence in a horror or fantasy story (movies, TV, books, comics, etc.)?

          - Event Horizon was a fantastic movie that stood out to me when I first watched it. Also The Thing was another movie.

  • If you could create or manipulate science/technology to better your life, what would you do, and would you do it regardless of the consequences?

          - Definitely time travel if I could also teleportation would be fun to have too! 

  • Is there an example of a potential misuse of science that scares you?

          - Sometimes I think the scientist that tests or possibly creates different strains of diseases or virus's has the possibility of causing a lot of harm and can be pretty scary cause that stuff is unpredictable in what could happen with new strains.

Philip K. Dick

Make the combination of art and science as well as Kenneth Snelson did.

Make the realistic violence with actual weapons by using visual effect in movies. It is harmful for young adolescents. It increases their aggressive thought and behavior.

1.2) The first Sci-fi/horror-like movie I ever watched was; Matrix (the first movie) because being used as a biological battery and only living in a dream scares me.
2.2) I would love to make sculptures by manipulating small (1 cubic centimeter) digital blocks into forming into whatever I want them to.

3.2) War, critical/fatal/lethal weapons, innocent people/animals/nature dying, not curing diseases (because I believe the governments keep the solutions hidden to reap money from dying patients) etc.

1. zombies in the resident evil franchise, because they were able to portray the spread of the virus in a creepy threatening way.
2. High speed skin regeneration looks nice on paper. I would make it if i can even though it sounds dangerous.. for the test subjects..
3. Mixing different kinds of animal/ plant dna.. Its already happening and sure it does reap good effects but it also makes you wonder where "enough is truly enough"..

also search "puffer fish sting in voodoo zombification".. its quite interesting.
