"30.9. 1970-luvun lopulla tehdyssä scifikauhussa kaikki näyttää 70-luvun futuristiikalta, mutta visio tulevaisuuden älykodista osuu yllättävän tarkasti nappiin. Alexan sijaan katsoja kuitenkin tapaa kolkon epäilyttävällä äänellä puhuvan tekoälyn, joka tykkää zoomailla vähän liikaa hänet luoneen rohvessoorin vaimon pyllyä. Koneen suurin haave on saada tehtyä biologinen lapsi, joten vaimon kodista poistuminen ei olekaan niin helppoa kuin alkuun voisi kuvitella. Vaikka lopu"

How did Cammell convince a studio to back a movie in which Julie Christie is violated by what looks like a copper Rubik’s snake?

"07.01 This has many echoes with today's technological developments in A.I. with 'Alexa' and 'Google'. In theory, the idea behind the film is great but the execution is awful. Clearly influenced by 2001 A Space Odyssey's Hal 9000 and the way technology was developing at the time. It isn't even a tad bit scary though. And I don't see why it was called 'Demon Seed'. It lacks a demon. It should have been called 'Android Seed'. This entered my list of worst ever films. "
