MCT:May 30, 2008Remarkably good, though dated, techno-thriller by the late, great Donald Cammell. Essentially a two-character piece with some surprisingly decent special effects for the time (though not without its embarrassingly bad ones as well). Julie Christie gives a dynamic performance.

MCT:April 15, 2008Very good story, good acting, and extremely creepy, but not too scary to watch. The only thing that got on my nerves was the parts when they would show computer generated art or whatever it was, for a long time. If they would have taken that part out, it would have been perfect.

This isn't a movie that you just sit back & turn your brain off; it's thinking horror & is more frightening the more you wrap your mind around the mathematics & metaphysics. I have been spending a lot of time lately thinking about such concepts that the machines have conquered & life is just an illusion looping through time..Im a little unnerved & am probably better off not trying to eat from the tree of knowledge

If this movie had been made a few years later, I have no doubt that David Cronenberg would have been offered the job. As it is, this movie reminded me of his work on films such as The Brood and Videodrome. While it may not be as good as those movies, I think it is still very well-done and interesting. The effects are a little dated nowadays, but if you can get past that, there are a lot of fascinating ideas behind this film. Also, the musical score is quite exceptional.

MCT:July 14, 2007One of those 70s "concept" sci-fi movies that are allegedly based on "factual science" that look so laughable now. A computer imprisons a woman in her home in an attempt to couple with her (how it intends to do this remains a mystery) surrounded the usual futuristic flares, kipper ties and wing collars. Amusingly dated, and the suspense elements are creepy/funny depending on your point of view.

MCT:April 20, 2007Good LORD this creeped me out big time! The precursor to the "Terminator" flicks, tapping into the fear of being overcome by the machines we're too dependent on.

Dated, but eerie and totally bizzarre. Great pre-cursor to the whole computer takes control of home and rapes woman to create baby and perpetuate its knowledge and consciousness within a biological organism genre of films.

Cult Classic, can be unintentionally funny at times but have a weakness for this type of film (Max Mon Amour and Possession make up an unofficial trilogy for me.)
-
MCT:October 21, 2006I laughed my butt off when I saw this. Computers impregnating a woman? Plus the technology is funny back then.
