“They rise. We fall.”

Science FictionThriller

Already deep into a second Cold War, Britain’s Ministry of Defense seeks a game-changing weapon. Programmer Vincent McCarthy unwittingly provides an answer in The Machine, a super-strong human cyborg. When a programming bug causes the prototype to decimate his lab, McCarthy takes his obsessive efforts underground, far away from inquisitive eyes.

VIBE

A cold, intellectual dread permeates this sleek sci-fi thriller. It's a cerebral exploration of artificial intelligence and the perilous ethics of creation, wrapped in a tense, unsettling atmosphere. Expect a stark, dystopian vision where humanity's ambition clashes with its own definition.
