Robot Wars

1993 · 67 min

A scrappy, low-budget sci-fi adventure with stop-motion robot battles and a post-apocalyptic desert setting, fun but forgettable.

Tagline: First There Was ROBOT JOX...
Overview: In the year 2041, the rebel Centros are a plague to the survivors of the great toxic gas scare of 1993. A renegade Megarobot pilot and an archaeologist must team up (despite personal differences, a reluctant romance, and official pressure to cease and desist) to thwart the Centro's attempts to resurrect a hidden Megarobot, with which they can challenge the prevailing order.
How it feels: Campy, tense, earnest and dark. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Survival, power, betrayal, technology
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
