Since HBO’s adaptation of this 1973 classic is now getting hyped, we recommend you watch the original and get familiar with the ropes a bit.

Westworld is a 1973 science fiction Western thriller film written and directed by novelist Michael Crichton. The movie explores the idea about a futuristic amusement park in which androids begin to malfunction and start killing visitors.

Yul Brynner plays our first killer-robot for today and is definitely one of the most vicious ones.

2. Blade Runner (1982)

Our second choice simply had to be Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer) from the 1982 sci-fi classic.

For those of you (uneducated bustards) who haven’t watched this movie yet, here’s a quick summary:

Blade Runner portrays a dystopian Los Angeles in which genetically engineered replicants are manufactured by the powerful Tyrell Corporation.

Since the use of replicants has been banned on Earth, they are now exclusively being utilized for dangerous or menial work on off-world colonies.

The story focuses on a group of recently escaped replicants who are hiding in L.A. and our hero – Blade Runner (Harrison Ford) – has to hunt them down.

Our last killer-robot for today is the notorious T-1000. Played by Robert Patrick, T-1000 is definitely one of the most iconic characters in the movie history.

This shapeshifting android assassin is the main antagonist of “Terminator 2: Judgment Day”, and is certainly the most badass killer-robot on our list.
