Interesting facts

  • Filmed in: California

Robot Wars is a 1993 American cyberpunk film directed by Albert Band and written by Charles Band and Jackson Barr. It tells the story of a hotshot mech pilot in a post-apocalyptic 2041 who must stop mech hijackers from provoking global war. It is sometimes marketed as a sequel to Robot Jox, but they are unrelated.

Production

Initially Albert Band was going to co-direct the film with his son Charles on alternating days much like they had done on Doctor Mordrid, but due to Charles' busy schedule overseeing other Full Moon Features Albert ended up being the sole director.

The soundtrack for the film was composed by David Arkenstone and was later released on CD through Moonstone Records in 1993.
