Death Machine

Demented inventor Jack Dante (Brad Dourif) is busy building terror weapons for the amoral Chaank Armaments corporation. The new female chief executive wants his operation shut down but before she can get rid of him some inept saboteurs break in and Dante lets his toys loose.

If you have even a passing interest in sci-fi or cyberpunk you are going to love this movie. Nothing dates faster than science fiction but there are exceptions and this is one of them. Sure, they have printers the size of an oven and speaking computers that sound like a female Stephen Hawking but most of the technology on show looks credible for a near-future setting.

The casting is spot on, Brad Dourif is highly entertaining as the nutcase genius and the rest of the cast are pretty good too. I didn't expect much from this movie but I was entertained, if you haven't seen it give it a try I think you'll like it.

Just as a final note, this movie currently has a totally unfair score of 5! That puts it on a par, in the minds of voters, with surefire crap like the lamentable Stepford Wives remake. IMDb should save people the trouble of voting and just give everything made this year a 10 and everything made earlier a 5, the final scores would be about the same.
