Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Every week we rate the robot from a movie, if it gets a score of 7 out of 10 then we say that it is not a shit robot. Today, we begin Season 6 with new titles and a deep-dive into the 1964 British movie, THE EARTH DIES SCREAMING. The robots are glam-rockin' but are they any good?
WARNING! The S**t-bomb is sometimes uttered but nothing more.

NOTES
**CORRECTION** At 5’30(ish), Stephen Murray claimed that Mark Gatiss coined the phrase ‘Cosy Catastrophe’. According to the internet, it was actually coined by top British sci-fi author Brian Aldiss. I can only apologise for any inconvenience.
