Featured reviews
Director Kevin King offers a low-budget exploitation flick which appeals especially those who enjoy women wielding weapons and ripped men without tops.
To King's credit many of the gore and special effects are pretty good. Rocky Myers and Eve Mauro are notable. Danny Trejo is his usually staple self in the short amount of screen time.
Cyborg X combines existing themes and tropes from sci-fi film history and pop culture. If it was 1992 this would have been a sure fire straight to video hit, the problem is that the Cyborg, Terminator and Mad Max cash-in has been worn tire thin.
King 's creative eye is evident and he manages to pull together a consistent film for the budget with the help of Myers performance.
Overall, don't expect Terminator or even Cyborg, think slicker Nemesis or APEX or more recently Battle of the Damned and you won't be disappointed.
Storyline is non existent - Location is the cheapest set imaginable - Dialogue is rubbish - Acting is strained, can only shout - Choreography is unbelievably bad. Could go on but I think you get the idea.
Don't waste 90 minutes of your life watching this. Go for a walk instead.
Very limited CGI, which i could expect for movie with this budget, but the costume/prosthetics were not bad, sound was decent, and it was pretty well shot.
Limited story, Danny said his usual 20 words, and some wooden acting hurt it of course, but as far as by-the-books Cyborg Action movies go i found it entertaining. Don't know if i would watch it twice, but i would like to see the director get a bigger budget. Lead male actor was pretty decent too .. Lead female actor was OK but nothing to write home about.
Good use of scenery too for the limited locations they used.
All in all worth a watch, at least once.
Written and directed by K. King that has Eve Mauro as Lieutenant Spears, along with a small group of survivors of a small colony, surviving a deserted apocalypse attempting to defeat cyborgs who succeeded in wiping out much of humanity. They attempt in doing this is by finding and then locating one of the cyborgs original creators by the name of Jack Kilmore played by Rocky Myers. Danny Trejo also stars as Captain Machine Gun.
As soon as the movie continue to kills off characters I care about, then I'll perhaps begin to like the movie even much mess. It's one predictable mess.
Storyline

- TriviaFirst American production credit for German singer Julian Thome.
- GoofsThe girl was too tall (beyond kid-age] to be playing with a teddy. First she got Lieutenant Lopez killed by cyborg by insisting to keep her teddy which she should not have had at the first place. Then she insisted on seeing the cam and half-body-blown Colonel Shaw getting killed and screamed to give away their location so that the cyborg could come and kill them, thus she got the other person killed by cyborg. If she could not keep herself from screaming, then she should not have insisted on seeing the cam. Utterly stupid girl.
- Quotes
Lieutenant Spears: [Voiceover - first lines of the main film] The reports said this would be the war to end all wars. They said X-Corp was too powerful... that nothing could stop it's artillery... for once the reports were right. After the initial strikes... only a few of us were lucky enough to survive. We would go on to be hunted by X-Corp ground units... an army of fighter drones and cyborgs... half-man, half-machine slaves now controlled by the system. After a year of hiding underground like rats... we began facing a new enemy as well... hunger. One thing soon became clear... the lucky ones are already dead.
