I suppose "Invades" is pretty good for a random neuron misfire. Come on, I only knew it existed because of MST!
Quality science fiction means that fictional technology is used to amplify the meaning of the plot.

That's a rather narrow definition. I can think of several acknowleged classics just off the top of my head that aren't covered by that.
(Dune, A Clockwork Orange, Stand on Zanzibar, The Shape of Things to Come and The Stars My Destination, in case you're wondering).

You consider Clockwork Orange to be scifi?

on-topic: I don't remember anyone mentioning the godfather of all sci-fi films, though... The Time Machine ?
