Question anyone know any films horror/sci fi/thrillers about

Computers.

Thanks I know it sounds weird but I am doing a group presentation for uni and I am doing about the future of the net and I am going to quote a few films and show a clip of one of them.
this part is about film makers cashing in on the fear of the future of the net and computers so it will make sense in the pressentation.

I have so far Matrix and the pulse any others at momoent would be helpfull thanks to anyone that can help

Re: anyone know any films horror/sci fi/thrillers about

2001: A Space Odyssey.

HAL9000 gets all paranoid and murders the crew apart from Dave Bowman who is never found.

2010 sort of answers the questions about why HAL did what he did.

I-Robot and A.I. are a few examples along with 'The Terminator', T2 and T3, all based on the story of a supercomputer (Skynet) that initiates a nuclear amageddon against mankind.

The Net

Havn't actually watched it myself so couldn't give you an opinion. You can read up on the plot on that Wyki website thing.

HAL 9000: Do you want me to repeat the last response?
Dr. Heywood Floyd: No, no. Tell Curnow that this is no time for jokes.
HAL 9000: Dr. Curnow is not sending the message. He is in access-way two.
Dr. Heywood Floyd: Well tell whoever it is that I can't accept that identification without proof.
HAL 9000: The response is, "I understand. It is important that you believe me. Look behind you."

Scared me when I watched it as a lad
