Über diesen Film

After meeting their end in a mechanized gladiator arena, four robot criminals - Auto, Max, Strobo and Trog are fished out of a junk pile, rebuilt and recruited as mercenaries for a mysterious organization of android adventurers.
Although reluctant at first, the mercenaries agree to travel to the planet Vidya, an artificial planet ravaged by a computer virus that has sent its robotic inhabitants into a state of primitive barbarism. Assaulted by all manner of killer machines and robots, the mercenaries must make their way through the tumultuous landscape, activate an inter-dimensional communication device, communicate with otherworldly aliens, and bring about a new age of enlightenment and prosperity for a dystopian galactic civilization.

Apparently "The Killer Robots!" are a Florida-based "theatrical rock band", who take the stage dressed as ... well, as Killer Robots ... and who produce a variety of multimedia materials that encapsulate their passion for both music and science fiction. This film is pretty much all about the cheap-but-often-interesting visual design and the goofy humour, with the plot being very much a secondary concern. That steadily becomes more and more of a weakness the longer the movie continues. If had been a short, I would give it props for its or its manic energy and memorable (if uneven) visual design and special effects. At feature length though I think it runs out of steam well before it is over.

I've been waiting for a copy of this to watch on my tablet for awhile... if you like sci-fi b-movies, you'll love "crash & burn'. lots of cheesy dialogue, crazy/wacky robotic creatures, and superb action; definitely will be watching this numerous times. 5 out of 5 stars for sheer creativity and absurd robotic action!

Great movie, I can certainly understand some people not being into it, but I love it, they have done some amazing things with junk found in a dumpster. Also the big song at the climax slaps hard.
