A genuine classic of the sci-fi genre, Death Machine kidnaps the audience into a dark world of unfulfilled desires, humanitarian terrorists, and psycho death bots. Brad Dourif delivers yet another oscar caliber perfomance as Jack Dante, a man whose heart is torn between explicit love for his upper management and his primordial urge to terminate all forms of life. A triumvirate of warriors guided by a needlessly painted man must put an end to Dante's wave of destruction--THAT IS THE DEATH MACHINE!!!! And boy, does Mayhem ensue. Stylized with crisp cinematography, a pulse pounding soundtrack, spine-chilling dialogue, and ingenious plotting, Death Machine made its way onto no Top Ten lists of 1995---EXCEPT MINE!!!!!

And it really did pay off. I thoroughly enjoyed this sci-fi/techno-thriller/horror romp...YES! A ROMP!
Norrington wrote a great script and the action sequences are tight. He also gets great performances from his actors. Dourif, of course, is fantastic as the mad scientist with a love-lorn crush on his boss that leans to the murderous side...
What seperates DEATH MACHINE from the majority of B-movie straight-to-video fare goes way beyond great special effects and lots of action and gore. The characters are actually ENGAGING. Usually, with low-budget horror, I'm HOPING most of the characters are done away with, but not with DEATH MACHINE. I liked these characters. I didn't want them to die. Of course, this heightens the overall tension of the film and makes it a great viewing experience.
Dourif might be a scene-stealer, but this is Norrington's film all of the way. He wrote a fantastic script. His direction was on the mark. And he got the most out of his cast.
DEATH MACHINE is definitely worth the 9.99. Without a doubt.

This movie is great when you see the original version.
This version is crap.....
UK release is in widescreen and runs about 12 mins longer.

Brad Dourif is Great, but the Rest is Meh!
Death machine is a science fiction film that came out in 1994. The movie takes place in 2023 in a cyberpunk type future that Blade Runner paved the way for. Read more

Perfect vintage mid-90's Sci-Fi!
Awesome movie that really brings me back to the mid-90's sci-fi era. And despite the lower budget and campy expectations, it was actually a really well made and enjoyable movie. Read more

I read one of the other reviews. I don't agree that the film "rocks"; however, it was pretty good. The acting is poor to average; the plot is anything but unique; and the special... Read more

Boring
Brad Dourif is an excellent actor but this is not his best work. It seems like any director trying to make it big in the 90's ripped off Terminator 2 - Judgment Day. Read more
