In this "blazing, cinematic comic book" (Variety), Arnold Schwarzenegger is "perfectly cast" (Los Angeles Times) as the fiercest and most relentless killing machine ever to threaten the survival of mankind! From the Oscar winning director of Titanic, this "fast paced, cleverly conceived, rip-roaring adventure" (Box-office) fires an arsenal of thrills, intriguing twists and heart-stopping suspense that "never lets up for a minute" (Leonard Maltin). In 2029, giant super-computers dominate the planet, hell bent on exterminating the human race! And to destroy man's future by changing the past they send an indestructible cyborg-a Terminator (schwarzenegger)-back in time to kill Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton), the woman who's unborn son will become mankind's only hope. Can Sarah protect herself from this unstoppable menace to save the life of her unborn child? Or will the human race be extinguished by "one mean hunk of mutant metal" (L.A. Herald-Examiner).
