WESTWORLD and FUTUREWORLD are being shown tonight back-to-back, for those who are interested. As for me, I think I'll just see ADIOS, SABATA instead.

This one hasn't been discussed for a while. Let me just say that Yul Brynner's robot gunslinger is the scariest automated villain in film history. Even the Terminator is not as scary.
