Magic Marmalade
29th Jul 2023
 Rated 8/10
Pretty good low budget sci-fi / horror.

...A blockbuster rental on release for me on a slow week, and pretty much forgotten now, but it is, as I recall, another based on a Philip K. Dick short story, and of course, starring Peter Weller, so both of those things to recommend it.

I'd like to see it again now, to see if it is as good as I remember.

As I recall it, two warring factions of humans on another planet, have fought each other to stand still, and have abandoned some place or other, but left automated killing machines like mines all over the place, and Weller and co. are sent to investigate a mystery without getting minced in the process.

It's like a Phantasm crossed with a low budget pre-cursor to Starship Troopers, minus the Verhoven "humour".

Slow burner, lo-fi, sci-fi horror. A good watch.
