Steel and Lace is a 1991 science fiction action film directed by Ernest D. Farino and starring Clare Wren, Bruce Davison, Stacy Haiduk, David Naughton, and Michael Cerveris.

Plot

Gaily Morton, a classical concert pianist, is raped by businessman Daniel Emerson. Her brother Albert takes time off from his career as a robot scientist to represent his sister at the criminal trial. However Daniel has gotten several of his friends to provide an alibi for the night of the rape, and he is found not guilty. Gaily is horrified by the verdict and commits suicide by jumping off the court building, despite her brother's pleas.

Albert uses his knowledge of robotics to resurrect his sister as a cyborg, which he then sends after Daniel and his business partners - the men who provided false witness in court.

Reception

Review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes reports that 18% of critics gave the film a positive review based on 2 reviews.

gollark: The only big problem I can see with that is that you can't really have the property/developed stuff on that land separate from the land itself, at least with current technology and use of nonmovable stuff.

gollark: You wouldn't just say "each m² of land costs $0.0001/year in taxes", I think one interesting idea there is to have people *set* a value, have a % of that be taxed, but also force it to be sold at that price if someone wants it.

gollark: * lots of

gollark: Farming would only be really expensive if the land is worth money *anyway*.

gollark: I don't know if it would actually be able to pay for everything important.
