      Kinda? Although that is much more cyberpunk. I think a movie about like the Zerg but they are humans would be closer, think Illithid tech

        Now I’m wondering if the Matrix or Avatar series would have any overlap with biopunk. Matrix is low on bio and Avatar is low on punk?

        District 9 mentioned above has been the first - “okay, that’s biopunk” - that clicked for me.

          Avatar for sure has some elements, I haven’t seen the second but the first was still a bit reliant on mainline tech for sci-fi.

          District 9 probably is but it’s been a hot minute since I’ve seen it
