CYBER TRACKER. Richard Pepin, dir., with Joseph Merhi, prod. USA: PM Entertainment Group, 1994. Don "The Dragon" Wilson, star, co-prod. Jacobsen Hart, script.

Cyberpunkish world, ca. 2014, where people can be tried in abstentia by "the United States Computerized Judicial System" and executed by Cyber Trackers: killer cyborgs like the THE TERMINATOR, with built-in guns like that of RoboCop and voices that sound like a cross between that of the enforcer 'droid in ROBOCOP and Robo himself, if on heavy downers. A number of shots are from the Tracker's point of view. Behind the new system: CyberCore (our capitalization), its producer, opposition: Union for Human Rights. Also of interest: Agnes 4000 personal AI home-computer and a senator who turns out to be a robot. Ends with a quotation from Ayn Rand in favor of human freedom.
