Review of Robot Holocaust (1986) by Kestutis K — 27 Jul 2010
In a vaguely post-apocalyptic setting where most of humanity toil as "air slaves" to serve their robot masters (all 7-8 of them), a motley band of adventurers have to find the Power Station and defeat the "Dark One." They have to contend with traps, sock puppets, a giant spider leg, mutants in bad makeup and their own stupidty as several of them wander off for no reason just so they can be killed.
I realize that makes the movie sound interesting. This is untrue. The plot borrows heavily from "Conan" and "Star Wars," and while the effects, costumes and acting are all priceless fodder for B movie riffers, the movie just doesn't make ANY sense. At all. People get abilities for no reason, use them once as a convenient way to circumvent a trap and then forget about it.
This movie's bad. Real Bad. Only recommended for the hardcore B movie fans out there, and even then, you've been warned.
