Streaming catalogs shift, and Prime Video availability can vary by country (and by whether a title is included with Prime or offered via rent/buy or add-on channels). With that caveat, here are 23 strong sci-fi picks to add to your watchlist.
Prime Video originals and modern headliners

Upload
A sleek sci-fi comedy about a digital afterlife—funny on the surface, unsettling underneath.
