Today Griffey and Dandino blur the line between man and machine in Demon Seed. They discuss the films blend of technological and exploitative horror, the focus on man as the evil ghost in the machine, and Proteus's insane plan for the future of his AI mega brain. This movie rises above the explotative, trashy concept to become a real Messed Up thinker.

Synopsis: A scientist creates Proteus--an organic super computer with artificial intelligence which becomes obsessed with human beings, and in particular the creator's wife.

Starring: Julie Christie, Fritz Weaver, Gerrit Graham

Directed by Donald Cammell
