OMEGA DOOM

OMEGA DOOM. Albert Pyun, dir. USA: Filmwerks, Toga Productions, Largo Entertainment (prod.) / Columbia TriStar (US dist.), 1996. Ed Naha, script. Rutger Hauer as Omega Doom.

A low budget futuristic piece, arguably, yet another remake of A. Kurosawa's YOJIMBO (1961), involving in this version feuding robots/cyborgs. Rutger Hauer is a top-of-the line-warrior model who doesn't want to fight anymore.
