Screamers
Instrueret af Christian Duguay
På den fjerntliggende og krigshærgede planet Sirius 6B, har videnskabsfolk i år 2078 udviklet det perfekte våben: En gruppe morderiske og selvreplikerende robotter kaldet Screamers, som er i stand til at jage og udslette al fjendtlig modstand. Men hvad der skulle have været et kontrollerbart og perfekt våben, er fortsat med at udvikle sig uden menneskelig kontrol, og har nu kun én overordnet mission: At udslette alt levende...

Screamers-bedømmelser og anmeldelser
- Jacob O’Neal4 dage sidenThere are few things I appreciate more than a good Philip K. Dick story. But when Dan O’Bannon is the one writing it (this film and Total Recall) it makes it that much better. It’s like Drew Goddard writing both the adaptations of The Martian and Project: Hail Mary. When it works for an author’s stories, don’t rock the boat. The story is simple - people living in Serius 6, protected by AI machines called Screamers, are at war with another group they haven’t seen in a long time. Then they discover people…or maybe not actually people. Perhaps the screamers evolved. Like I said, the story is simple. What makes it good are the writing and acting. Peter Weller (Naked Lunch, Robocop) stars with Jennifer Rubin. All actors give it their best and it shows. Weller genuinely stands out as he gave his character weight, idiosyncrasies and flaws that make him feel three dimensional almost immediately. The effects in the film are good for a mid-90’s low budget indie. But the thing that I miss more than anything are practical sets like they had. It felt big, expansive and lived in, not like today’s films where Tom Holland doesn’t even wear his spidey suit while running around green screens. All said, this movie is well crafted, smartly written, well acted by nearly all involved and serves a good warning from the past about artificial intelligence. Plus, we could all use more Dick in our lives.
- dprend415. februar 2026I love old sci fi and while screamers has an interesting premise, its execution is poor. Bad acting, poor dialogue, questionable practical effects. If the film came out in the 80s I would have thought it wasn't too bad, but for 1995 it really is not good.
- Richard19. oktober 2025Saw this one on TV sometime in the late ’90s, during one of those gritty sci-fi marathons where the signal fuzz added to the atmosphere. Peter Weller plays a military commander on a war torn mining planet, trying to broker peace while dodging killer machines called “Screamers”, autonomous weapons that were supposed to protect humans but evolved into something far nastier. The concept is pure Philip K. Dick: paranoia, identity and technology gone rogue. The execution? Rough around the edges, but full of charm. The landscape is bleak, the bunkers claustrophobic and the Screamers themselves, burrowing, blade-spinning death bots are genuinely creepy. And just when you think you’ve figured out the rules, the machines start mimicking humans. It’s not a blockbuster, but it’s got atmosphere. The effects are practical and gritty, the pacing builds tension and the twisty ending sticks with you. I liked it enough to remember it decades later. It’s the kind of movie that made adult years feel grimy, tense and quietly haunting, with a dash of ’90s cable TV grit.
- Péntek Szabolcs14. januar 2026From today's perspective, apart from some rather weak trick shots, it is a particularly strong and good film. It is very underrated.
- bandikoto19. oktober 2025Nice space opera with a couple of Dickian elements.
