movie sub-genres • steampunk
steampunk is a subgenre of science fiction that incorporates retrofuturistic technology and aesthetics inspired by 19th-century industrial steam-powered machinery. steampunk works are often set in an alternative history of the victorian era or the american "wild west", where steam power remains in mainstream use, or in a fantasy world that similarly employs steam power but can be enacted in modern settlings in elements like in hellboy and its sequel.
