Robot Jox
Set in a future where after nuclear war has devastated mankind the world powers decide to war illegal. Instead they use giant robots to settle disputes. The story focuses on Achilles - a pilot or Robot Jox as they're called - who is on his final fight against Alexander for sovereignty over Alaska. When an accident leaves hundred dead, Achilles quits fighting to live a normal life but is instead deemed a coward.
Stuart Gordon's low budget sci fi flick is alright. Some great stop motion and effects, story is decent enough, however there was potential to make it more satirical, especially with the pregnancy propaganda in the background or one sequence where Achilles family is all excited for having real meat which is just a sausage. ultimately if you're looking for darkly humorous dystopian sci-fi then you'd be better just watching Robocop. But if you're just looking for something stupid and fun. I would suggest checking it out.
