is this the right film?


I was a kid, i remember watching it on UK bbc1 or bbc2 late night about 11pm - it was some kind of sci-fi horror movie about a house that has a computer system that has A-I but its evil and i remember watching this scene where towards the end theres this camera shot that follows the vertical drop rapidly into some kind of hell - anyone got a clue i think its defintely a US film set probably in the 80s...

It could also be a TV movie called "Dream House" (1998). http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0149448/

Ah, yes! I was reading about 'Demon Seed' and I was sure that it wasn't the film I was looking for, but you've confirmed it for me, it was 'Dream House'! The only thing I could remember about it was that the home security system was called 'Helen', because that's my name. Not a lot to go on...

Why do you snot nosed punks think that anything that happened in the past occurred in the 1980s? Surely, however stupid you might be, you must realize that there were other decades preceding the 80s. I can't wait until I see one of you little crap-stain-kids referencing World War II as having been fought in the 1980s.

As satire, you're not funny, but as camp, you have value.

You're quite right. The more technology advances, the more ignorant people get. People have always been stupid, but it's worse now than ever before in history. Anything that came out 6 months ago is considered "old".....and therefore worthless. Quality is without consideration. Newness is the only thing that matters. How sad. How typical.
