You know the premise: a cyborg (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is sent from the year 2029 to present-day LA (1984) to terminate Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton), a woman whose unborn child will play a vital role in their post-apocalyptic future. Written and directed by James Cameron (Aliens, Titanic, Avatar), the original Terminator was praised upon release for its slick design and robust action sequences. Its synth-heavy soundtrack and grimy Los Angeles aesthetic create the perfect backdrop for the unstoppable and pitch-perfect Schwarzenegger villain.
