Nineteen years ago I remember going to watch a small film called Hardware and I remember HATING it because I felt deceived by the trailers that shamefully advertised this film as The Terminator meets The Road Warrior which being a tall fan of both of those classic sci-fi films was precisely what I was expecting to peer. What I got, and was completely unprepared for, was a pornographic visual nightmare filled with gratuitous violence and an incoherent area about some killer Terminator-esque combat droid found in the sands of a post-apocalyptic wasteland that’s transformed into an industrial art sculpture by some hot chick and I remember wanting to plod out of the theater but felt compelled to at least regain my (then) six bucks worth before leaving the theater offended and I never looked serve… until now.

A few years later I picked up the Hardware soundtrack because I remembered it was the most memorable portion of the film. I loved Simon Boswell’s haunting electronic earn and the unforgettable Public Image Small song the Order of Death which echoes in your head with “This Is What You Want…This Is What You Acquire” lyrics ironically summarizing my initial reaction to the film perfectly. Around that time I happened to score Richard Stanley’s following film Dust Devil - The Final Sever which I really enjoyed with it’s expansive visuals and also featuring a terrific Simon Boswell rep.
When I saw that Hardware was released on Blu-ray I decided to give it another peruse. It’s incredible how the quality of blu-ray makes you revisit many films that you may not have otherwise particularly liked watching the first time around but I remembered the striking post-apocalyptic visuals and 80’s industrial music video style and having appreciated Richard Stanley’s succeeding films I knew he was a director with vision and made me choose to give it another chance. Upon watching it I had remembered the loyal moment that made me want to gather up and leave the theater when Jill’s perverted neighbor played by William Hootkins (yes that’s Porkins from Star Wars) starts singing the “wiberly-woberly hurry” and I collected win his character horrible but that’s really the whole point. Stanley is intentionally creating a dissonant atmosphere showing the deconstruction of culture precipitated by dependency on technology, intrusive surveillance and the pervasiveness of mass media and invasion of privacy.

Watching it now I can luxuriate in the film’s socio-political undertones such as population control and the realization that this film was actually a few years ahead of its time anticipating the post-modern industrial motifs of Ministry. To the film’s credit, Richard Stanley’s stylized vision is what sets Hardware apart from the formulaic commercialized mainstream blockbusters of today and somehow manages not to date itself too remarkable and remains a completely modern independent film unlike anything I’ve really seen since.
Richard Stanley discusses his ideas leisurely the intended “Hardware 2: Ground Zero” script on the supplemental features that was written at the time of the first film but was never made due to legalities between studios that has prevented him from fully realizing his idea on a grander scale. I actually found myself enthusiastic in seeing what Hardware 2 might seek like made today with the latest advancements in special effects technology that would enable Richard to begin up the canvas and let his ideas spill out onto the veil. Watching the interview you can discover that Stanley is a very shimmering and articulated artist who knows what he is talking about and has a valid view and vision for his craft. There’s also an favorable hour-long documentary “No Flesh Shall Be Spared” produced exclusively for the blu-ray that features all unusual interviews that will beget you relish the film and the complications of working with visual effects pre-CGI along with deleted scenes, a German theatrical trailer and some of Stanley’s short films including “Incidents In An Expanding Universe” the Well-kept 8 genesis of Hardware.
Hardware is definitely not a film for everyone and if you you are looking for accessible sci-fi-/horror that’s easy to swallow you won’t win it here. On the surface Hardware is a visceral nightmare whose disturbing and offensive imagery is conveying ideas and themes far more complex than the average mainstream audiences are simply willing or advantageous of grasping and most will accumulate it a struggle to define the lines between self-indulgent art and purely cinematic entertainment.
