The Cult Movie Museum: Robot Jox and Rollerball – Movie News

Geno

The CULT MOVIE MUSEUM is back with an overlooked science fiction gem: 1989’s ROBOT JOX. ROBOT JOX was produced decades before the PACIFIC RIM and TRANSFORMERS franchises. 

In a post nuclear holocaust world war is outlawed. Conflicts between governments are settled by giant fighting robots piloted by heroic ROBOT JOX (hey, that’s the title of the movie!). 
REANIMATOR director STUART GORDON and producer CHARLES BAND create a fun, believable future society on a lean budget. 

If you like pre-CGI practical effects you’re going to love this movie. It’s packed with stop motion, puppetry and large scale miniatures, all shot under the blazing hot desert sun. 

Stars Gary Graham of ALIEN NATION and ANNE-MARIE JOHNSON of IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT are terrific, though it’s hard not to be upstaged by giant flame throwing robots!
