Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A low-budget sci-fi B-movie shot in 1994 and released to very little commercial success.The virtual-reality arcade combat game Evolver is all the rage, and Kyle's (Ethan Embry) score is on top of the country charts. So, logically, he's the one chosen to test a real-life version of the game that the company just came up with. They deliver him a small robot, the titular Evolver (voiced by William H. Macy), and a few innocuous laser-pointer guns to fight it with.At first everything goes fine and everyone has a ton of fun, but after a while Evolver reverts to deeper, far more dangerous programming: he upgrades his weapons and goes on a rampage, killing several people and almost succeeding in killing Kyle's sister until he's disabled by Kyle. The robot is carried away and everyone resumes their normal lives, but only briefly: during transit Evolver reactivates, and refusing to acknowledge defeat he switches into combat mode and looks for revenge...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Abnormal Ammo | |
| Evolver / int_12c65d9b | comment |
Abnormal Ammo: when Evolver figures out plastic balls and foam missiles can't actually kill his targets, he replaces them with metal ball bearings and kitchen knives. | |

Failsafe Failure | |
| Evolver / int_1d3c92da | comment |
Failsafe Failure: The verbal shutdown code that is originally used to stop the out-of-control robot during the trial run is rejected by the Evolver when its creator tries to use it at the end of the film. Cue Oh, Crap!. | |

Back from the Dead | |
| Evolver / int_8967e17f | comment |
Back from the Dead: Evolver does this twice. First time he gets thrown into a pool, but reactivates later. Then he's beaten into shutdown with a baseball bat, but then reactivates again - partially disabled, but still very much out for blood. | |
