Movie The Terminator (1984)

5/13/1984

In the early hours of May 13, 1984, a Terminator — a cybernetic assassin from 2029 — materializes in a Los Angeles alley and begins systematically hunting every Sarah Connor in the phone book, working toward the mother of future resistance leader John Connor. On the same night, Kyle Reese arrives from the future to protect her, carrying a photograph of a woman he has never met but has loved from a distance of thirty years.
