Kyle Mooney as Garrett in Y2K
The following contains spoilers for Y2K, now playing in theatersY2K is an unexpectedly ideal spiritual successor to The Terminator franchise. Directed by Kyle Mooney, Y2K is a purposefully goofy and dark comedy focused on a world where the Y2K bug turned machines against humanity. The main characters of Y2K spend the rest of the run-time trying to survive the machine's efforts to capture or kill them, all while working out a way to stop their spread.
Related 10 Movies That Perfectly Capture 1999 Culture A24's Y2K starring Rachel Zegler, Jaeden Martell, and Julian Dennison captures 1999 culture, but what other movies have achieved this feat? Both Skynet and Y2K suggest that these digital avatars have come to hate humanity for their failings and flaws, with the latter turning against humans when it believed them to be a threat. While Y2K's malicious bug is far more coarse about it, it largely agrees that humans are at best worthless and at worst dangerous. While the comedic tone of Y2K might play the centralized digital force for dark comedy, it's still potentially as dangerous as Skynet.
