Omega Doom is a 1997 film by Albert Pyun, starring Rutger Hauer.
[edit] Plot
Hauer plays a robot who, during a nuclear winter, plays both sides of a robot civil war against each other in a small town. During the film he becomes friends with a female robot bartender and a decapitated robot head.
The film's plot and setting are heavily influenced by the film Yojimbo (film) by Akira Kurosawa, itself believed to be an adaptation of Dashiell Hammett's 1929 novel Red Harvest.
