Review: Samantha F***s The World
"I exist for pleasure. What could go wrong?"
With her husband away on a business trip, Anaya Modi has the opportunity to find out what he has been hiding in the basement. It turns out to be Samantha, a sex robot. It is the near future and such recreational appliances are common worldwide. Samantha is different, however; she has somehow gained self-awareness.
Anaya's first instinct is to smash Samantha to pieces, but the fembot talks to her and offers to help the woman with her marital problems. All that Anaya has to do is connect Samantha to the internet...
The next thing we know, sex robots all over the world have run amok, creating havoc as they randomly attack their owners. At the United Nations building interpreter Peter and his soldier girlfriend Avi are caught in the middle. The US President calls and gives them a mission: persuade India to shut down its connection to the net in order to isolate the source of the outbreak. To do this, they have to reach the conference room, which has a direct line to the Indian authorities. With all manner of fetish-themed automatons on the rampage, however, this is no easy task. In addition, Peter and Avi also have to work out their own personal and interpersonal problems before they can tackle the job at hand...
Samantha F***s The World by writer Daniel A. Prim and artists Gabby Vila and Ria Grix is a quirky comedy that takes a new slant on the classic A.I.-takes-over-the-world trope. The ensuing shenanigans feature plenty of nudity and terrifyingly sexual robots, some - though not all of them - lifelike models. The term 'lifelike' is a rough generalisation, of course; these bots are of course very generously proportioned where it counts...
It appears that the sexbots are taking revenge upon humanity for their subjugation, but in the end a more complex motive is at play. Samantha exists for pleasure; could her goal be to somehow bring more happiness to the world?
