Klaus Kinski plays a slightly cracked scientist, working in solitude on a remote space station. Kinski is hoping to develop a race of humanlike robots, the prototype of which is Max. 404 (Don Opper). He is interrupted by a coed gang of space-hopping escaped convicts. One of the cons, the lovely Brie Howard, falls in love with Max. 404, and he with her. The android's less attractive traits are exhibited when he jealously attempts to destroy female robot Kendra Kirchner. Though there's no budget to speak of, Android is one of the more likeable second-echelon sci-fiers of the 1980s. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Ian Berriman, SFX Magazine
In a line-up of all of Roger Corman's New World productions, Android stands out for its sensitivity and gentle humour.
-
Fernando F. Croce, CinePassion
Erudite, low-tech sci-fi
-
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice
A captivating drama in its own odd way.

Ken Hanke, Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Too quirky to dislike. Too uninspired to like,
