How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A low-budget sci-fi action film where an unstoppable killer robot goes rogue, delivering B-movie thrills with campy earnestness and practical effects that embrace their own artificiality.

Points to everyone for being able to say “Captain Coldyron” with a straight face and for the filmmakers to really think they’d be able to manage to make a sequel.

At least they cast and crew knew they were not making high art. Numerous times they called themselves out for what they are, and I appreciate it that. “This isn’t some low-budget sci-fi” & “I don’t know. I feel this is how Terminator started.” LOL
