Product Information
Michael Crichton's directorial debut, WESTWORLD is the direct precursor to JURASSIC PARK as the story of a technological amusement park gone out of control, with tourists becoming victims. For $1,000 a day, patrons can visit high-tech recreations of historically based mythical settings controlled by lifelike androids and synthetic environments: a Roman world that recreates tales of ancient Rome; a medieval world that recreates the legends of the Middle Ages; and Westworld, which recreates the myth of the classic Western. Two Chicago businessmen, Martin (Richard Benjamin) and Blane (James Brolin), spend their vacation in Westworld, where they live out their fantasies of the Old West mythology: chaotic barroom brawls, random love with beautiful prostitutes, and a violent jailbreak during which they shoot the local sheriff. But the complex technology that supports these fabricated worlds develops complicated syndromes faster than the scientists behind the scenes can resolve them. Soon the entire resort breaks down into chaos, and the androids turn hostile on the visiting tourists. WESTWORLD is both a retread on classic science fiction themes and a precocious critique of the false values and artificiality of the encroaching mass culture.Product Identifiers

A great film, so well made, you'll want to own and re-visit.
Remarkable special effects for a movie made in the early 1970s. Compelling scenario, very intelligently researched and written, presented, and directed, by the creative genius Micheal Creighton. The same who created Jurassic Park. Good acting, all around, Richard Benjamin, and James Brolin come across well, as modern contemporary Chicago exurbanites, who seek adventure in an old wild west setting. Yul Brenner, is intimidating as a dressed in all black gun fighter, and reminds of his staring in the incomparable classic Magnificent 7. Many notables in secondarily roles including Star Trek's Majel Barret, and Dick Van Patten, plus a host of extras you'll recognize from other westerns. Great film, entertaining to watch, and well made, that it's great to revisit. Not to be confused with more recent episodic remakes.
