New Release Review - "Subservience"
by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com - published 2024-09-17
The early '70s gave us a wave of dystopian sci-fi thrillers in which Artificial Intelligence turns against its human masters. Movies like Colossus: The Forbin Project, Westworld and Demon Seed saw super-computers, theme park robots and smart homes, all of which were supposed to make our lives better, reveal their dark sides. We now live in a world where the concerns of those '70s thrillers are rapidly becoming a reality, and yet our current wave of AI thrillers feel arguably less realistic than their 50-year-old forebears. Maybe it's because the latest AI thrillers simply graft their sci-fi narratives onto old formats. Most of them (M3GAN, T.I.M., AfrAId) are simply updates of "evil nanny" thrillers, where initially Mary Poppins-like home helpers turn out to be psychos (The Nanny, The Hand That Rocks the Cradle and numerous made for TV thrillers). That's the case once again with Subservience, though this one adds an element of sleaze, making it an erotic robotic thriller if you will.
