... View More"Linda" (Chikako Aoyama) is a female police officer who has been assigned to guard the son of an extremely wealthy oil sheik. Lamentably, her mission becomes a complete failure as he is consequently kidnapped and Linda (aka "Selena") is critically wounded trying to protect him. Meanwhile, at a lavish convention sponsored by the oil sheik with the goal of awarding a large contract to the best robot manufacturer, an evil Japanese robotics genius by the name of "Ryuichi Sakamoto" (Chung Lin) televises a video declaring that he has kidnapped the sheik's son and demands the sheik's complete cooperation. He then demonstrates his genius by killing himself while simultaneously transferring his mind into the computerized brain of a nearby robot. Not only does this give him incredible power and intelligence but the robot also has a remarkable human appearance as well. Not to be outdone, another scientist at the convention named "Dr. Sara" (Siu-dan Hui) also has a powerful robot with human appearances by the name of "Anna" (Amy Yip) and vows to help the sheik defeat Ryuichi Sakamoto. Although she realizes that Sakamoto's robot has the edge due to his superior human intelligence, she also devises a plan to essentially compensate for it. To do this she will need a human brain of her own and Linda is the perfect candidate. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that I was surprised at the amount of action, nudity, sex and martial arts this film contained. Unfortunately, the script and the special effects were considerably bad and this really affected the overall entertainment value. Even so, there was some good humor here and there along with several sexy actresses featured including the aforementioned Chikako Aoyama, Siu-an Hui and Amy Yip which certainly didn't hurt this film in any way. In any case, regardless of the cheap effects, I rate this movie as about average.
... View MoreRobotrix is a cheap and trashy Cat III outing which mixes sci-fi, action & comedy elements along with the usual sleaze and gore of the HK Category III film.Taking obvious cues from Robocop and The Terminator, the futuristic story opens with female cop, Selina (busty AV idol & Edo Rapeman star, Chikako Aoyama) getting killed during the kidnapping of an Arabian prince she is protecting. We soon discover that the prince was kidnapped by fiendish scientist & robot designer, Ryuichi Sakamoto, who subsequently commits Hara-kiri and transplants his evil mind into his latest robot creation, played by Billy Chow (Horrible High Heels, Escape from the Brothel).The psycho cyborg then proceeds to go on a hooker-killing rampage punctuated by a few sleazy rapes. Luckily, Japanese scientist Dr. Sara and her robot assistant Anne (big-titted Cat III cutie, Amy Yip) are standing by to donate their services, and they do so by transferring dead cop Selina's mind into a clone of her old body, then together they prepare to hunt down the evil whore-slaughtering robot and save the prince.This flick is a whole lotta fun. There's enough sex, violence, robot-rape and low brow comedy relief courtesy of the goofball cops to keep the avid sleazehound entertained. Some classic scenes involve Amy Yip going undercover in a brothel to try and lure the crazed cyborg in, but ends in half the police force lining up to bang her! There's also limb tearing, ultra cheesy special effects and some violent-robot-wielding-a-flamethrower action. A guaranteed good time for one and all! 7/10
... View More"Robotrix" is like a Russ Meyer movie with robots and futuristic hardware. It is not terribly well made and it is totally confusing, but it is never boring -- not the uncut version, anyway. There is a graphic rape scene that is scissored from some versions, so make sure you see the film in its glorious uncut state. Mammary-heavy Amy Yip is "Robotrix", a Robocop-like creation who is enlisted to hunt down a renegade robot that goes haywire. Despite Yip's reputation as a sex goddess, she was quite coy about her body in most HK movies (the great "Erotic Ghost Story" excepted). In this occasionally sleazy outing, the nudity honors go to the stunning Chikako Aoyama, a woman with a body to render non-stop chatterboxes speechless.
... View MoreRobotrix.This is the finest artefact that mankind possess. No language contains the words to describe this CAT-3 sci-fi HK show. I love every single film ever produced (-hate).I love this show, its like watching Panasonic's wet dream in 1983. 1991? This show has aged like a fine wine.I'm out.Peace and love to all people.A.
