Most of the good scifi flicks are based on his stuff. "Blade Runner", "Total Recall", "Screamers" (not a big success but outstanding film) and "Minority Report".
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (1968), was the basis for the famous cult movie classic Blade Runner (1982), directed by Ridley Scott. Philip Dick's short story We Can Remember it for You Wholesale inspired the shoot-em-up film Total Recall (1990), directed by Paul Verhoeven. Later on, Dick's story Second Variety was turned into a motion picture called Screamers (1995), directed by Christian Duguay. More recent (2002) movie adaptations include Impostor (starring Gary Sinise, directed by Gary Fleder), and Minority Report (starring Tom Cruise, directed by Steven Spielberg), based on the short stories with the same name.
