Low Budget means nothing.

Rating: 10/10 (15 June 2018)

Before James Cameron's ego ran rampant, this was one of the great films (the other being Aliens) that he made. A simple story of time travel, with a soldier and a killing machine from the future, coming back to accomplish disparate tasks: the soldier to save, the machine to kill, the mother of the futures savior. A brilliant film, sparse and quick, it keeps the viewer glued to the screen and again, in the pre CGI days, the limited amount of effects are simply amazing. The movie that set Arnold on his career path, and made Cameron one to be noticed. Just great.
