Sep 25, 2017 · Watching CYBORG 2087 today, it's impossible to ignore the similarities with James Cameron's THE TERMINATOR--a universally-regarded classic--and Charles Band's TRANCERS--a smaller film with a devoted cult following--two films by young, visionary directors that would come a couple of decades later while CYBORG 2087 was consigned to late-night TV well into the 1980s and eventual obscurity once ...
In 2087, free thought is illegal and the population is controlled by governments. A small band of free thinkers sends Garth A7, a cyborg, back in time to 1966 to prevent Professor Sigmund Marx from revealing his new discovery. The discovery will eventually make mind control possible and create a tyranny in Garth's time.

Oct 11, 2017 · The first of the two is Cyborg 2087, with a lanky, Lincoln-like but quite cybernetic emissary from, yes, the year 2087, on a mission to stop the development of tech that’s turned his society into an Orwellian nightmare of mental oppression and general mirthlessness. This is “Garth A7”, and he’s played by the great Michael Rennie, who ...

A villainous cyborg literally named Starkraven, AKA Cyborg Spartacus (Morgan Hunter), is alone good enough to make the most risible litany of any half-man-half-robot, but the way in which the character is written, acted, and made-up in Cyborg Cop IIabsolutely takes the cake.

Despite starring the fantastic Bruce Greenwood and Tiffani Amber Theissen, Cyborg Soldieris an abysmal attempt to capitalize on the basic man-machine premise. Former UFC star Rich Franklin gives an amateurishly wooden turn as Intuitive Synthetic Autonomous Assault Commando (I.S.A.A.C.), a genetically enhanced supersoldier created by the government ...
Now considered a campy-kitschy cult classic, the 1966 sci-fi B-movie Cyborg 2087 must be seen to be believed. The premise finds Earth's population sending a cyborg back in time to the 1960s in order to radically alter the future. Despite inspiring The Terminator, the cheap production values and minuscule budget make the film hard to get through. RE...
Said to be 70% machine and 30% man, Paco Queruak in the Italian Terminator knockoff Hands of Steelis as ludicrous a cyborg as they come. Beyond the brazen rip-off of James Cameron's classic, it's the sheer ineptitude and insubordination that makes Paco so bad as a cyborg. Deemed the most reliable cyborg in the world in the movie's trailer, Paco is ...
Those who've seen Commando and Weird Science know how wildly over the top Vernon Wells can be as a villain. In the case of Circuitry Man 2, Wells goes the extra histrionic mile as Plughead, a wacky cybernetic baddie with wires implanted into his brain and the ability to tap into his enemies' minds. It's sheer ridiculousness. While out to avenge a h...

Dec 28, 2017 · Cyborg 2087 does appear as something cobbled together both inexpensively and hastily for the small screen. The initial tipoff is the film’s lackluster and visually non-appealing set designs. Cyborg 2087 is a film visually hobbled by poor production values due to the paucity of budget. The futuristic control room seen briefly at the ...
