Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Every week we rate the robot from a movie, if it gets a score of 7 out of 10 then we say that it is not a shit robot. Today, we look at LOGAN'S RUN from 1976. A movie with a properly shit robot. So shit, in fact, that it might be quite good.

Welcome to our 50 Years of Shit Robots Patreon cult. Today, you can have a sneaky peak of the chat we had after we'd watched Sleeper. It's a rambling but very interesting chat about the Hayes Code, queerness in cinema and smutty names. It is completely off the top of our heads and not meant to be an exhaustive chat on the subject. If you'd like to join the ROBOT CULT then follow the link below. Thanks so much.
