A Terminator arrives in Poland during World War II, and seeks out a target in a camp holding POWs.

That’s it in terms of set-up for this one-off story, which once more tells a simple, brutal tale that does a great job of making Terminators terrifying again. There’s no explanation for why he’s after the specific person he’s tracking down, but it doesn’t matter one bit; the story is just a straight up horror which also takes time to question the nature of evil.

Surprisingly philosophical stuff, especially with it framing a story in which a cybernetic killing machine attacks a place and time which may well not have enough firepower to contain it. Once again, The Terminator delivers a satisfying done-in-one tale of terror, just as the first film did (initially, at least!).
