Question: I need to know the title of this movie with robotic/metal spiders/insects!?
ok!. I remember seeing this movie when I was younger!. So it came out before 1990 and all I can remember is the end!. Well, I think it's the end!. There is this guy hanging on to the edge of a crane (i think) on the top of a skyscraper/building!. Below him are a swarm of robotic looking spiders!? He is afraid to fall because I guess they will attack and kill him!. Please help!. This movie title has evaded me for years!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Runaway (1984)
starring Tom Selleck, Gene Simmons, Cynthia Rhodes, Kirstie Alley
IMDb review:
From the master of technophobic paranoiac pseudoscience fiction, Michael Crichton, comes this tense, well-made suspense thriller!. Selleck plays a cop who is forced to fight off a few battalions of homicidal gadgets under the influence of a mod chip programmed to identify specific human targets, with all of the cyber-evil ultimately under the control of the evil Dr!. Charles Luther!. Selleck does well in his physically and emotionally demanding role, playing a police officer with vertigo who is assigned to disable runaway robots!. To his credit, none of Crichton's robots are the standard ludicrous anthropomorphisms !.!.!. but rather mechanical hardware things as innocuous as boxy agricultural drones which pick bugs from cornstalks and turn them into fertilizer and housekeeping automatons which look only slightly more advanced than today's robotic vacuums!.
Copies are available at this site and others, and you can watch the film at Amazon, too, I suspect for a fee:
