Screamers (1995) UK Quad Poster
Based on Philip K. Dick's 1953 short story Second Variety, Screamers is set on the deserted mining planet Sirius 6B. Peter Weller leads his team through a bleak and treacherous landscape on a mission no one understands or trusts, beset by self-replicating killing machines that continuously target them. When new models, that mimic humans are discovered, the remaining humans simply try to escape the hostile planet.
Tautly directed by Christian Duguay, it's an underrated film, with some tense interplay between the team, unable to distinguish human from screamer, and effectively creepy design and effects in conjuring up the mining planet.
Condition: VERY GOOD - Slight creasing centre right fold
Cast: Peter Weller, Roy Dupuis, Jennifer Rubin, Andy Lauer, Ron White, Liliana Komorowska
