Storia
In the year 2078 on Sirius 6B, a mining planet decimated by war for a decade, scientists have created Screamers - self-replicating, blade-wielding androids designed to hunt and destroy enemy life forms. However, these killing devices continue to evolve independently and now pose a threat to all life on the planet. Colonel Hendricksson (Peter Weller), commanding a handful of Alliance soldiers still alive, decides to negotiate a separate peace with the opposing New Economic Bloc forces amidst this deadly environment where the very weapons he helped create hunt them.
Riassunto

Set on an alien mining planet ravaged by war, the movie explores themes of man's creation gone wrong and the struggle for survival against a relentless artificial threat. Based on Philip K. Dick's short story 'Second Variety,' Screamers is notable for its grim atmosphere and exploration of android horror.
