Screamers

Peter Weller, Roy Dupuis

The year is 2078 and on a distant mining planet ravaged by a decade of war, scientists have created the perfect weapon: a blade wielding, self-replicating race of killing devices known as Screamers ...( read more  read more... )designed for one purpose only--to hunt down and destroy all enemy life forms. But man's greatest weapon has continued to evolve without any human guidance, and now it has devised a new mission: to obliterate all life. Colonel Hendricksson is commander of a handful of Alliance soldiers still alive on Sirius 6B. Betrayed by his own political leaders and disgusted by the atrocities of this never-ending war, Hendricksson decides he must negotiate a seperated peace with the New Economic Bloc's decimated forces. But to do so, he will have to cross a treacherous wasteland where the deadliest threat comes from the very weapons he helped to create. Accompanied by Ace, a young trooper, they set out for the enemy bunker.

    started off well but sharply went downhill when a killing machine decided to fall in love. a killing machine in love? up until that point it was okay but not really going anywhere anyhow. on a plus side it was okay to keep you from being bored for nearly 2 hours

    This movie was roundly drubbed by the critics. I admit it has it's weak points, but I love Phillip K. Dick's story.

    "don't you think the blade wielding, self-replicating race of killing devices we created will eventually become a danger to us?"

    "no."
