The Ultimate Killing Machine. Part Man. Part Metal.
Directed by Stuart Gordon (Re-Animator), Robot Jox reveals a world where nations settle their territorial disputes by a single combat between two giant machines. Piloted by national heroes Achilles (Gary Graham, TV's Alien Nation) and Alexander (Paul Koslo, Shadowchaser), the robots meet in Death Valley to fight for the greatest prize of all: Alaska. But when Achilles' machine crushes 300 spectators, the match ends in a draw. Refusing to face Alexander in a rematch, Achilles is replaced by Athena (Anne-Marie Johnson, TV's Melrose Place), a genetically-engineered combat fighter. So when the GenJox is nearly killed and the game is forfeited, Achilles avenges their honor by challenging Alexander to a winner-take-all death match, in this heavy-metal, sci-fi adventure.

Guilty Pleasure now an extended cut - 3.25 out of 5 (10/18/2005)
I saw this movie in the theater then I bought it when it came out on VHS, and I've always enjoyed this little movie. Now it comes to DVD in glorious widescreen and extended. I still have my old VHS version and compaired the two. The scenes I noticed were when our hero's robot falls into the bleachers - that scene has been extented to show more of the damage and casualties. The other is where Tex shoots Matsimoto - now it shows him actualy getting his brains blown out. These should have warrante
