Charles Band really threw everything at the wall with this one, and somehow it kind of works! I think it is just absurd enough. Difficult to do, and even Band wasn’t always successful at it.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A gloriously excessive 80s action romp that throws together cyborgs, kung fu masters, and pet robots with gleeful abandon. It's the kind of film that takes itself seriously enough to have real stakes, but not so seriously that it can't enjoy its own wild premise.
