« Screamers » Philip K. Dick (Story)

movie

SIRIUS 6B, 2078

On a distant mining planet ravaged by a decade of war, scientists have created the perfect weapon: a blade–wielding, self–replicating race of killing devices known as Screamers designed for one purpose only — to hunt down and destroy all enemy life forms.

But man’s greatest weapon has continued to evolve without any human guidance, and now it has devised a new mission: to obliterate all life. Col. Hendricksson is commander of a handful of Alliance soldiers still alive on Sirius 6B. Betrayed by his own political leaders and disgusted by the atrocities of this never–ending war, Hendricksson decides he must negotiate a separate peace with the New Economic Bloc’s decimated forces.

But to do so, he will have to cross a treacherous wasteland where the deadliest threat comes from the very weapons he helped to create.
