Westworld (1973)


A robot malfunction creates havoc and terror for unsuspecting vacationers at a futuristic, adult-themed amusement park.

Simple, but effective sci-fi thriller with a decidedly anti-consumerist and skeptical stance concerning future development.

Halliwell**: "Unusual and amusing but under-produced melodrama with slipshod story development and continuity, atoned for by memorable moments and underlying excitement."

Maltin***: "Engaging story..."

Michael Weldon/Psychotronic: "Yul Brynner is great in a silent role...Richard Benjamin and James Brolin aren't so great in speaking roles..."
