Jamie Lee Curtis, William Baldwin, Donald Sutherland,
Marshall Bell, Julio Oscar Mechoso, Sherman Augustus and Joanna Pacula battle an
electricity-hungry alien in this sci-fi thriller.
SEX/NUDITY 1 - Some sexual innuendo.
VIOLENCE/GORE 8 - We see several robots made from bloody human body parts;
in one scene, we see robots taking a bloody brain out of a corpse in a room filled with
bloody body parts and skeletons. A large bloody robot/human removes a man's gut (we see
lots of blood) and throws his bloody body across a room. A man is impaled (we briefly see
the very bloody wound) and a man cuts into a robot/human's exposed and bloody brain; the
robot grabs a woman and a man beats the robot with a gun. We see lots of blood when a man
removes a wooden stake from his leg; we also see lots of blood (and hear squishy sounds)
when a woman is stitching the wound. A woman finds a man with a very bloody and partially
decomposed face and dreams that he grabs her. A bloody robot/human breaks in two and a
bloody skeleton rises from it. An insect-like robot shoots nails into a man's shoulder (we
see blood on his shirt) and tries to drill into a man's head. A woman falls into water and
sees lots of bloody corpses floating around her. In a few scenes, we see blood on walls or
in puddles on the floor; we also see some bloody cuts on people's faces throughout the
movie. A current of electricity knocks down several people; some are electrocuted. A woman
shoots at fuel tanks; they explode and she's engulfed in flames. We see several small
explosions throughout the movie, and we also see a huge ship explode. A man gets tangled
in wires and is pulled into a tunnel. A large anchor falls through the deck of a boat (it
later sinks) and nearly hits a man; also, a woman is nearly swept off a ship by a large
wave and one man does fall into the sea. Lots of threatening and shooting with guns; also,
many punches and scuffles.
