Inspired by a short story by visionary author Philip K. Dick, Screamers: The Hunting is a mind-shattering sequel to the legendary sci-fi cult thriller! It's been thirteen years since the robotic killing machines known as Screamers destroyed the human population of Sirius 6B. But now a distress signal brings a team of rescuers to the supposedly abandoned planet. Can it be a long-lost colony of human survivors? Or have the Screamers evolved into something even more sinister... half-man/half-machine hybrids that need to escape Sirius 6B to finish their mission: the complete annihilation of the human race? (official distributor synopsis)

Even though the film tries to increase the paranoia, in the end, the finale is mainly about everyone shooting each other and who might possibly stay alive. The film Screamers: The Hunting doesn't really pretend to be anything, but it doesn't come up with anything truly original either. That's a shame because I would have thought that from Philip K. Dick's book, it's possible to squeeze out a little more than just this.
