Nemisis (1992)
Guest programmer Will Foran of Cult Canada hosts this screening.
In the future, “information terrorists” threaten to destroy order in society. Part-man, part-machine LAPD cop Alex begins to question his humanity and allegiance to the system he has come to know. Directed by B-movie legend Albert Pyun, this actioneer spares no bullets in a cyberpunk romp that channels The Terminator but perhaps even influenced the soon-to-be-legendary sci-fi epic ‘The Matrix’.
Albert Pyun is the Werner Herzog of the b-movie. Not in content, but in the overwhelming desire to make a movie work…even if that means constructing an entire cyber-dystopia out of nothing but abandoned buildings and 100 pairs of cool sunglasses. – Letterboxd
