I highly recommend it.

It was ‘disturbing’ when it came out, but because it had no stars in the cast (at that time), it was relegated to ‘B’ movie status.

The star of the movie playing Dr. Forbin, Eric Braeden, has played Victor Newman on The Young and the Restless for over 40 years.

It also has a young Marion Ross (Mom Cunningham on Happy Days) and Susan Clark who has been in many movies over the years.

But they were relatively unknowns at the time.............

Absolute must see. AI gone wild in a movie made 50 years ago.

I watched it a couple of times as a kid. I remember a suspensful scene similar to the one in 2001: A Space Odessey where Forbin tries to disable Colossus, but in a chamber protected by lasers.

Absolutely. Very good movie. Right up there with “Andromeda Strain”.
