When I was a kid I would watch this scifi movie called Screamers over and over again. The premise was some soldiers were fighting this never ending war on some fuckin sand planet and there were these robot things covered in buzzsaws called screamers that had been dropped into the sand to act as like mobile landmines, basically. Anyway, to young me this made total sense was a super awesome. Then as time went on I started doubting my memories of the movie, especially since I had never met anyone who had heard of this movie, and the premise seemed too absurd to be true. I decided I'd probably dreamed the movie up. But then lo and behold it was real, starring Peter Weller, no less. Does not hold up well on re-watch, especially the "twist" they reuse like 5 times in the movie where it turns out X character was a screamer all along. By the end something like 75% of the cast turned out to be hidden robots.

client posted:the tales from crypt movie with dennis miller but tbf it had a lot of boobs in it This unearthed a hidden memory of watching Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight approximately a hundred times when he first came out on VHS. I don't really remember much about it aside from the fact that Billy Zane is in it. If this content guide is anything to go by it sounds like it's probably still awesome: Sex & Nudity 6/10 We see a topless woman in the tub. We hear grunting and moaning as a couple has sex upstairs. A cop finds a couple having sex with the woman on top (no nudity seen). There is a scene with a group of female strippers - all topless and bare breasted. A woman is seen in a shirt and a pair of panties. Violence & Gore 9/10 A man is seen in a tub of acid and most of his skin is burned off. A car crashes into another car and there is a huge explosion. A man holds a knife to a woman's throat. A demon's head is sliced off with a machete. Since the body is still alive, a boy picks up the head and sticks the eyes into some antlers. A man punches a cop through the mouth and his fist goes entirely through his head. His hand gets caught and he pulls the cop's head off. A man cuts his hand and some green blood comes out that falls on the ground and turns into demons. The demons are shot and stabbed. We see green blood comes out of their bodies. A bloody demon grabs a man's face. She rips a woman's arm off. The demon is shot in the back of the head and her eyeballs crawl away. A man runs down a flight of stairs but before he manages to escape, the collector shouts to him that he lied and the man is torn apart by demons. Blood is seen spurting from the wounds as he screams. Blood drips down from behind a sheet. Behind it, we see a man's chest being torn apart by demons. A woman straps some grenades to her and blows herself and a cop up to stop some demons. A boy turns into a demon and claws a man's chest. He blows up when he is kicked out a window. A woman spits blood onto a demon which melts away his face and causes his body to burst into flames (he turns into a giant winged demon before he blows up). A supposedly dead man emerges from an acid bath and makes his way up the stairs to murder a woman while she is in the bath, this is a particularly gruesome scene, particularly one part where his fingers detach from his hand and stick to the banister. This may give young children nightmares. Profanity 6/10 'gently caress' said several times, other profanities include 'poo poo, goddamn, drat, bitch, pussy (pun on cat), rear end in a top hat'. A woman mentions giving a man the finger. Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking 5/10 A woman drinks some vodka. A man drinks some alcohol several times including in a bar. Frightening/Intense Scenes 7/10 Several scenes where something jumps out to scare someone (demons, a cat). The protagonists find a rather large collection of guns in the home of a recently fired postal worker, possibly meaning that he was planning to attack the post office.
