Happy Christmas from Fifty Years of Shit Robots. This year, we're joining film-maker and friend of the show, Leslie-Ann Rose, on her traditional festive Alien franchise rewatch. We're going to watch them all in chronological order starting today with ALIEN: PROMETHEUS. The robot in question is DAVID, played by Michael Fassbender, a naughty robot who thinks a little too highly of himself.

WARNING 1! This episode does contain discussion of rape.

Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Every week we rate the robot from a movie, if it gets a score of 7 out of 10 then we say that it is not a shit robot. Today, we look at DEMON SEED from 1977. A movie with a horrible robot.

Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Every week we rate the robot from a movie, if it gets a score of 7 out of 10 then we say that it is not a shit robot. Today, we look at LOGAN'S RUN from 1976. A movie with a properly shit robot. So shit, in fact, that it might be quite good.
