DESCRIPTION:
Arnold Schwarzenegger explodes
out of the year 2084 A.D. with gun crunching, whit knuckle, non-stop action,
as he smashes his way through a horrifyingly real fantasy world, complete
with a gorgeous but deadly wife (Sharon Stone), and into a mind-bending,
nightmarish reality of a Martian mining colony ruled over by a terrorizing
dictator (Ronny Cox), who can alter reality to suit his whims. The red
planet erupts with rebellious mutants, the fire of an alluring and mysterious
woman (Rachel Ticton) and a vicious and savage enemy. In this film, directed

This movie is based off the short story We Can Remember
It For You Wholesale by Philip K. Dick. The story was first purchased
for adaptation in 1974 and took 16 years and over 40 drafts of the script
before being made in 1990.

This film had originally been picked up by the Dino De Laurentiis'
production company and had signed Patrick Swayze to the lead role. However
as filming was about to being in Australia the company went bankrupt. Arnold
Schwarzenegger wanted to play the lead in the movie so he convinced the
Carolco production company to buy the rights and cast him in the lead.

Originally this film was slapped with an "X" rating due to
"excessive violence". However after a few cuts and a few different camera
angles the film was able to get an "R" rating.
