YOU CAN’T STOP PROGRESS.
Mark 13 is a government-built killing machine programmed with artificial intelligence, able to repair and recharge itself from any energy source. Through a series of coincidences, the cyborg’s head ends up in the home of a sculptress as a bizarre Christmas present from her boyfriend. Once inside its new home, the cyborg promptly reconstructs the rest of its body using a variety of household utensils and proceeds to go on a murderous rampage.

I saw this in the theater and hated it. But I’ve since rewatched it and my opinion has softened somewhat.
This is what you want. This is what you get.
My friends and I watched this so many times when it came out on video.
I recommend watching Dust Devil as well, I find it a much better movie. And Shadowland is a thought provoking documentary about the director, who does not seem like a very nice person to put it lightly
it’s entertaining, as a flawed B-movie. it has cameos by “the Godfather of Punk” Iggy Pop, Carl McCoy from the goth band Fields of Nephilim, and Lemmy from Motorhead. the soundtrack is unexpectedly solid, including songs by Ministry and (iirc) Public Image Ltd.
If you speak Italian, the Italian dub is available free here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAAtCMtl0dA
Richard Stanley’s (Color Out of Space and partially The Island of Dr. Moreau) western-influenced post-apocalyptic cyberpunk flick is a genre classic. Plain and simple.






This is my favourite Christmas movie.
Seen it a couple of times, and somehow it doesn’t quite work for me (can’t remember why now).
4-5 years ago, I did watch & enjoy Stanley’s Dust Devil.
