As humans, sinister robots  have been around since the days of Edison. We see them in the malfunctioning Yul Brenner of WESTWORLD, or the single-minded  killing machine of THE TERMINATOR, or Alicia Vikander's AI powered humanoid in EX MACHINA  or the nascent super intelligence of Ultron . They threaten us. 

Host Garen Daly dives into this world of emotionless adversaries with film critic Erin Underwood and film director David Giancola. Existential threats, ethical mine fields, and the emergent AI. are all at  the intersection of technology and cinema. They are  the unwavering bad boys of cinema, BAD BOTS.

Please note BAD BOTS is recorded live with inserted film clips. To see the film clips, please visit  Boston SciFi's YouTube Channel.
