Hardware (1990)

Dir. Richard Stanley

A grimy movie. A lady who smokes legal weed called "Good Vibes" hangs out in her apartment a lot. She gets spied on by a fat perv who has her home wired with hidden cameras. She has a robot droid that ends up malfunctioning and freaking out on her Terminator-style. Her boyfriend and his friend who is tripping on drugs try to help her out. The fat perv comes by and gets his ass killed, then the stage is set for a lot more robot violence until it finally ends. Lemmy stars as a (boat) cab driver, and one of the character's voices is done by Iggy Pop. Done pretty well for a low-budget movie. The director went on to do the film Dust Devil. Vulcan on 29th St. has a VHS tape. I watched the unrated version taped from a Japanese Laserdisc, which I got from I Luv Video on Airport in the sci-fi section.
