Trancers poster

Cheap 80s sci-fi. There are traces of Blade Runner and Terminator here, but the film is so poorly executed that it's silly to even compare it to those films. There clearly wasn't any budget, the fact that they managed to get Helen Hunt was just because she was at the very start of her career. For the US pulp fans only, in other words.

The lead performances are horrific, the sets and props look laughable, and the plot is a downright bore. It's one of those films that could've been decent enough if only the execution was on point, but it's almost like watching an 80s TV show. At least the film is short, but even that can't save it. A pretty horrible film, I'm pretty surprised it managed so many sequels.
