Demon Seed (1977)




Slashers show

Summary: <p>Happy Valentine's Day, all our Mutant Goons!  Welcome to another episode of our (Fe)bruary killer robot month where your hosts cover 1977's Demon Seed based upon the Dean Koontz novel of the same name. </p> <p>The film is directed by Donald Cammell and stars Julie Christie, Fritz Weaver and Gerritt Graham, while Robert Vaughn voices the titular and evil Proteus. Don't let the decade for this film fool you, it will get under your skin and drag you along on a demented and cabin-fever-riddled ride, as it is about a rogue computer that infiltrates a smart house and forcefully impregnates the woman living there. Whoah--that was a fucking mouthful. Talk about romance on the most romantic day of the year! But hey, a lot of us use tiny machines for certain things, so there ya go. </p> <p>We had a lot of fun recording this one and hope you enjoy it. Be sure to let us know your thoughts and if you have any other suggestions for the rest of February, let us know! </p> <p>This week If you ever have feedback or recommendations on future episodes,  please let us know at slasherspod@gmail.com.
