Science Fiction so often is done really poorly in Indie Films, simply because someone is trying to make a movie they can't afford to do properly and poor effects and acting just kill it. That said, there occasionally are some that are just really pretty damn cool, primarily because they were written within the budget that they had to make it, or they were just smart enough not to try to make a Hollywood style Sci-Fi.
Some of my Favorites:
American Astronaut
Pi
Eraserhead
Primer
I realize that Moon, was an Indie pic but they just had a much larger budget than I can comfortably fantasize about at the moment, so I left it off my list. Very cool movie though.
