James Cameron's THE TERMINATOR is one of the tightest, tensest sci-fi films ever made and a landmark in the genre. In the year 2029, battles rage between the superintelligent...
more...machines that rule the world and the last vestiges of humanity. In late-20th-century Los Angeles, Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) suddenly finds herself stalked by an unstoppable killing machine--a Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) sent from the future to kill her and her unconceived son, John Connor, the future leader of the human resistance. Sarah can rely only on Reese (Michael Biehn), a soldier sent from the future to protect her from the seemingly indestructible Terminator and save humanity. This low-budget masterpiece was the breakthrough film for director Cameron, who weds special effects, thrills, and understated romance to create one of the finest action films of the 1980s, which spawned many imitations but few equals. Science fiction author Harlan Ellison sued over the film's similarities to his own works, especially the OUTER LIMITS episode Demon with a Glass Hand, and won acknowledgement in the film's credits. Schwarzenegger will forever be known as the relentless Terminator, a heartless killing machine who returns (in a kinder, gentler form) in 1991's TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY. In this sequel, a deadly shape-shifting assassin (Robert Patrick) is sent back in time to succeed where his cyborg predecessor failed--to eliminate Sarah Connor's son (Edward Furlong) before he gets a chance to make history, leading the humans in a war against the machines. The original cyborg (Arnold Schwarzenegger) also returns, but this time as the boy's protector.

The Four Horses of the Apocalypse
Review of The Terminator Collection (Box Set) (DVD) by t0mm

Advantages: The Films
Disadvantages: They Are A little Similar/Conan the Barbarian

The Four Horses of the Apocalypse, these film kick ass. These films stand for one thing. Being the best. But anyway Predator what can i say? it rules. Having Arnold Schwarzenegger, Carl Weathers, Jesse Ventura, and Kevin Peter Hall hunt a alien that is far more advanced then them in everyway, but they do it anyway, thats called being a man. As the soldiers make their way to the extraction point, they are observed by an unknown creature, who uses ... Read review

Terminator box set The pros and cons
Review of The Terminator Collection (Box Set) (DVD) by Grahamrocks

Advantages: great quality picture
Disadvantages: none found

...but for anyone that like the terminator this is a must have. I cant think of a better present for a terminator fan. This box set ranks highly in my opinion. They look great and are definitely worth the money. I bought two of these, one for my self and one as a gift. For me having a widescreen meant that i had to watch my films in widescreen and now I usually only buy widescreen films. I no that the terminator is quite old and that's why it contains ...
