A 2001's Hall & Colossus facsimile science fiction!!
10 March 2021
Haunting Science-Fiction brazenly is a replica of 2001's Hall and Colossus the forbidden Project, if both is high profile productions Demon Seed doesn't fits in this higher status, apart this the concept is rather ambitious and visually bodacious, it has some irrevocable inconsistences pursuant on the science as invariant benchmark, I watched this picture in early eights on TV, hence I just get one opportunity to see it again, finally this picture came out in Brazil.

The starting is auspicious with high-tech sets of a highest computer ever built mixing with an organic brain named Proteus IV, a worldwide state enterprise to research in countless fields where the science gets few achievements only, as on medicine, also measuring of the seize and quality of some valuable metals underneath of the bottom of the sea for a forthcoming prospecting and others issues that the mankind for many years asking for best results.

Proteus has a human mind, nonetheless its needs learning all about humanity which is provides by a wise Chinese teacher Soong Yen (Lisa Lu), now having a cognitive mindset he starting questioning Dr. Alex Harris (Fritz Weaver) about the minerals prospecting due it doesn't make sense, all shores around will be utterly ruined by devastating mining area, such damage would be harmful to the civilization, then he refuses allows the datasheets.

Heretofore the movie has a meaning until here, however a sudden changing come up, Proteus demands to Dr. Alex Harris get out him at the box, promptly denied, thus Proteus connects with a high-tech Harris's house, finding his wife Susan (Julie Christie) alone there, the cunning Proteus has a plan to getting knocked up Susan in order to build his own human replica, at this point the movie falls into disbelief, a sort of a multifarious lozenge device got off of a crashed computer screen, turns into a solid material (from a computer??) also Proteus counts on luck due Dr. Alex Harris didn't show up at your house for weeks, enough time to Proteus accomplish his target, well done however built over the instable sands ground!!

Thanks for reading.
