Futureworld

Tarnished sequel to the over praised Westworld, with Peter Fonda and Blythe Danner (as ‘Socks’, no less) investigating a cloning conspiracy at the futuristic equivalent of the western theme park. The obligatory huge computers, shoestring representations of Usbourne Book of the Future-style pastimes (the ‘holographic’ chess is a winner) and an all-dancing dream sequence with Yul Brynner which shamelessly pisses on the memory of the original all add to the fun. Now, if they can get clearance for Beyond Westworld we’d be sorted.
