Demon Seed. 1977.

A scientist creates a organic super computer Proteus, which turns on humans and holds the scientist's wife prisoner with hopes of impregnating her.

Based on the Dean Kontz novel which was full of suspense, Donald Cammel adds it in with more suspense and tension on how Artificial Intelligence may turn on it's creators and mankind. Julie Christie plays Susan Harris who becomes trapped in the house and tormented by Proteus. Fritz Weaver plays Alex, the scientist believes the programe is working until it's too late. The acting is strong in this as Julie Christie plays the lead role with Robert Vaughn as the voice of the computer who wants life outside of a chip. The film may be outdated but still very much enjoyable.
