You can't stop progress.

Mark 13 is a government-built killing machine programmed with artificial intelligence, able to repair and recharge itself from any energy source. Through a series of coincidences, the cyborg's head ends up in the home of a sculptress as a bizarre Christmas present from her boyfriend. Once inside its new home, the cyborg promptly reconstructs the rest of its body using a variety of household utensils and proceeds to go on a murderous rampage.

Directed by Richard Stanley

Starring Dylan McDermott, Stacey Travis, John Lynch, William Hootkins, Carl McCoy, Iggy Pop, Mark Northover, Paul McKenzie
