two versions of "It's hard to be a God" (in Russian) one from 1989, another from 2013:

The final scene in 1989 movie is clearly influenced by Dune (1984).

Likeiwse it's clear that this movie influenced modern American/Canadian Sci-Fi series like Stargate Atlantis [1] and Defiance [2]. I.e. both Wraith and Votan look like noblemen from "It's hard to be a God" (1989).
