As they have pointed out in 2018 commemorating the 50 years of 2001 A Space Odyssey; This work of madness by Stanley Kubrick can only be described as "A movie that changed all movies for ever". I think, 2001 broke the genre of sci-fi horror. Nothing, no director has ever been able to bring something that's not in the 2001. Technology seems to be the only variable across the decades. But, there too, 2001 stood out. May be 2001: A Space Odyssey as game changer is exactly matches what what Seven Samurai to world cinema.
