 Amazing death scene March 3, 2010
mr_spock (Evansville, IN USA)
Having read all the reviews, including some very articulate and intelligent ones, I'm moved to add one more because, to my surprise, no one commented on Mo's lengthy, psychedelic death scene. I enjoyed the grungy, post-apocalyptic atmosphere, sound track (esp. Order of Death) and the general off-the-wall weirdness, but what blew me away was Mo's pschedelic visions as he's dying after being injected with the killer robot's poison. The plot having already established that the victims basically experience an acid-trip death, the graphic, through-his-eyes psychedelic experience was visceral, fascinating and believable. That's not all that the film has to recommend it. It was, as others have noted, ahead of its time, and sophisticated in ways that go right over the heads of some of its mass-entertainment-conditioned detractors, but that scene was for me the most amazing segment of an amazing film.
 SILLY 80S HORROR February 15, 2010

total waste of time. this is a product of the 80s with very bad effects, ridiculous soundtrack and simple minded story.
it get good reviews only because it is "old classics". new movies like this are dismissed imediatelly.
p.s. and i really love d-horror movies where the bad guy comes alive again and again, really scary!!!
Disc won't play...disappointed. January 17, 2010

I was really looking forward to watching this movie but when I put it in my Blu Ray player it wouldn't play and then shut the player off. Tried it 3 times then gave up. Not taking a chance on another bad disc so hoping there are no problems with my refund.
this is what i've wanted for years January 4, 2010

i can not wait to get my copy in the mail, i'm already drooling. i have been teased with rumors that something may be released soon over the years and all i could find was what seemed to be a european bootleg transfer that sold for waaaay too much and the sound quality was apparently done by someone holding the microphone towards their tv while standing in their bathroom. i don't know. i heard it was bad.
i think the first time i saw this was on cable many,many years ago on a movie channel. it stayed at the back of my mind saying 'this is what you want, this is what you get,' over and over until a date and i were looking through the vid stacks at kensington video. he was talking about a movie where this chick seems to constantly be smoking joints she pulls from a cigarette carton and i talk about the tall, dark guy and the cyborg. i pick up a box to look at it and we both see it, it's one and the same movie. gotta love that.
i can't wait.
Criminally overlooked Sci-fi horror thriller now on Blu-Ray! December 24, 2009

In the far future in a post-apocalyptic world, a scavenging space marine named Mo (Dylan McDermott) searches for the right Christmas gift for his beautiful metal-sculpting girlfriend (Stacey Travis) as he finds a skull-esque robotic head in the desert and heads back to his technology ridden city then to his apartment. She loves it but later on it reassembles itself as a violent killing bio-mechanical combat cyborg called M.A.R.K. 13 which is hellbent on destroying turning the night into one long nightmare of pure terror.
Brilliant UK-US made Science Fiction horror thriller import from writer and director Richard Stanley is a gem all the way. I love how the director uses some religious subtext in the film even to a few of the characters and the idea behind this piece of cyberpunk pulp fiction and has a slasher-like twist to it much like the original Terminator did. The film features appearences by Iggy Pop and Lemmy of Motorhead fame with an outstanding score by Simon Boswell and soundstrack by Ministry & Public Image Ltd, it's a thrilling and go-for-the-throat thriller with terrific special effects and gore with decent acting that keeps you on your seat and never lets go into a nightmarish vision of the future.
This Blu-Ray offers this overlooked film in it's first time in the US Director's Cut with never before seen footage that the MPAA didn't want you to see has some fairly nice quality and some fine quality dolby surround sound to it. The Extras are good as well like a new documentary on the film with interviews, the short film "Incidents in An Expanding Universe" super 8 early version of Hardware that inspired the film, "Sea of Perdition" 2006 Richard Stanley Short film, "Rites of Passage" early short film from the director, Richard Stanley on a possible sequel, deleted and extended scenes, audio commentary, German Trailer and Vintage Hardware Promo video.
Also recommended: "Akira", "District 9", "Terminator Series", "Blade Runner", "Mad Max Trilogy", "Fist of the North Star (1986 anime)", "Total Recall", "Deadly Friend", "Robocop", "I Robot", "The Fifth Element", "Alien Series", "Predator 1 & 2", "AVP 1 & 2", "Chopping Mall", "Jin-Roh The Wolf Brigade", "Death Race 2000", "Death Race (2008)", "I Am Legend", "Videodrome", "The Thing (1982)", "The Matrix Trilogy", "Runaway", "Heavy Metal", "Rock and Rule", "Ghost in The Shell 1 & 2", "Wall-E", "Metropolis (1927 and 2001)", "Dust Devil", "12 Monkeys", "A Boy and His Dog", "Transformers (1986 animated, 2007 live-action and Revenge of the Fallen)", "Grindhouse", "Tetsuo The Iron Man" and "Westworld".
