Hardware, Richard Stanley (1990)

Hardware is a low-budget scifi horror movie that was the directorial debut of Richard Stanley – who is notable for being the initial director in the notorious Island of Dr. Moreau filmatization in the 90’s – and starring Dylan McDermott and Stacey Travis.

I wouldn’t call it a good movie, exactly, but it’s not terrible either and it definitely has its moments. Stanley’s style is pleasantly weird, and the aesthetics are sometimes really on point.

Here’s the rest of my screenshots (sorry about the stupid rounded corners on all of them, my video player insists on including those in screenshots):

You’re welcome! And yes, Hardware is exactly that.

Considering the budget was less than a million GBP they did a great job. It’s not an Orson Welles flick, but it’s fun and often visually interesting – it looks sort of like I’d expect the world of Brazil to look some years in the future and after a nuclear war.

Definitely been one of my favorites ever since I saw it as a teen, and it doesn’t seem to be too well known so I’m happy to spread the message

Always include the original film name, director and year of release. If you do not know some of the required information, state that in either the title or top-level comment e.g. [Roma, Federico Fellini, Unknown Year]. The reason we ask for this information is that you can only search on the content of post titles, not comments.

**➧2. Add review? I’ts your choice!**In the ‘body’ of the post you can add your review, a comment or anything else you think about the film. You’re free to do that, let’s keep the discussion open about the film you just posted. Or just don’t write anything and share your favourite frame, is up to you.

➧3. No low-effort/low-quality posts.

Posts made to r/filmsframes are expected to be of high quality and have serious effort put behind them. The frame should be clean, not have any urls/website watermarks in them.

➧4. Be Original

Don’t publish stills/frames of a famous film like everyone else, we want to see your own view of a film, your favourite shot, try to publish your favourite still/frame.

➧5. Be respectful.

Harassment, abuse, name calling, and/or threats of any kind is not tolerated here. Any content, whether an image or a comment, that includes any kind of bigoted language or hate speech will be met with a permanent ban.

➧6. No off-topic Content

➧7. No spam or reposts.

Do not submit more than one of the same post/comment on this community or across multiple communities. In addition, please wait at least 3 months before reposting an image that has already been posted to r/filmsframes, and do not repost from the top of all time.

➧8. No advertisement or self-promotion.

Do not use this subreddit to advertise or self-promote. This includes (but is not limited to) websites, articles, blog posts, and brands.

➧9. No memes images or GIFSPlease keep the ‘frames’ and ‘stills’ in mind.

➧10. Tag NSFW Posts

· Nudity: Obvious, implied or strategically covered · Content that is “sexually explicit” · Gore, both human and non-human.

**➧11. Look around you…**Please watch what is posted already, maybe shots/frames/stills from ‘Marvel’ or other “blockbuster” films or others alike, aren’t the most suitable for this community. Yet, this is relative, if you find your "view/still/frame is artistic enough to post, don’t be shy to post it.
