    • Trivia
      Director John Carpenter based the "indestructable" nature of his killer Michael Myers in Halloween (1978) on Yul Brynner's character in this film. Similarly, Arnold Schwarzenegger used Brynner's performance as the basis of his performance in The Terminator (1984).
    • Goofs
      (At around 1h 17 mins) The Gunslinger's clothes are unaffected after being splashed with hydrochloric acid. However, some fabrics are hardly affected by hydrochloric acid.
    • Quotes

      Robot Gunslinger: Draw.

    • Alternate versions
      Early prints contain a scene in Medeval world where a guest is tortured on a rack. That scene was deleted from television and video.

    The Vacation of the Future Today
    In a near future, the Delos Company offers the vacation of the future in the present days in the amusement parks Medievalworld, Romanworld and Westworld for U$ 1,000.00 per day. The vacationers can feel in the Middle Age or in the Roman Empire or in the Wild West and have joust, sex, duel against gunslinger and whatever he or she wants interacting with robots.

    Peter Martin (Richard Benjamin) and John Blane (James Brolin) travel in the hovercraft to Westworld and sooner Peter duels against a Gunslinger (Yul Brynner). However, when there is a malfunctioning of the machinery, the robots get out of control jeopardizing the guests.

    "Westworld" is a very successful sci-fi of my generation and a sort of grandfather of other robots films, such as "The Stepford Wives", "Blade Runner" and mainly "The Terminator". There is a scene in this last franchise that is an updated rip-off of Yul Brynner's character chasing Peter.

    The story has flaws, but is engaging and suspenseful, holding the attention until the very last scene. My vote is seven.

    Title (Brazil): "Westworld - Onde Ninguém Tem Alma" ("Westworld - Where No One Has Soul")

    Note: On 20 January 2018, I saw this film again.

    FAQ3

    • Robots cannot harm humans with guns, but how about other means of injury?
    • Why did the scientist/mechanic decide to give the gunslinger infrared vision and enhanced hearing capabilities?
