Fun Terminator Rip-Offs That Are Worth Watching

May 28, 2021 by Red Stewart

Marvelous Videos presents the best ripoffs of The Terminator…

It’s such a simple concept – a cyborg goes back in time to alter the past. And yet, no one thought of doing it before James Cameron debuted it in 1984 (besides maybe Harlan Ellison, but that’s another story for another day!). Not only did The Terminator cement Arnold Schwarzenegger as an iconic film star, but it ensured Cameron’s status as a pioneer of the science fiction genre.

But just like with any popular work, you get derivatives that pack all the requisite action and technical proficiency, but miss out on the heart of what made the original work. Terminator was so popular it produced at least 11 of these ripoffs that the folks at Marvelous Videos feel are worth watch. Check out the video here…
