" Screamers is a 1995 science fiction horror film starring Peter Weller, Roy Dupuis, and Jennifer Rubin, and directed by Christian Duguay. The screenplay, written by Dan O'Bannon with a rewrite by Miguel Tejada-Flores, is based on Philip K.

"This was a nice surprise, a mid 90's 20 million dollars budgeted Sci-fi horror film that was good. There were nice matte paintings, the performances were mostly good the robots got pretty creepy at times. Some of the CGI shots weren't that impressive though."
