Does anyone else remember the original version looking different? I swear the version I saw in theaters and on video was filtered bright red the entire time, except for the sex scene which was in normal color (unlike here).

The restoration of this on blu ray is pretty damn impressive. I always liked this movie. I think it worked pretty good and I'm always a sucker for good visuals and style and such.

The guy who finds the robot and brings it to the salvage place is Carl McCoy from Fields of the Nephilim.

@paranex This looks the way it's supposed to as far as I remember, and I saw it in theaters. I think maybe you saw a bad print or something? I remember on VHS the visuals took a bit of a beating in the resolution department.

I'm buddies with Richard Stanley. He told me to watch out for succubi and incubi and nargtlopers coming after me in my dreams. He's as fun as you'd imagine. Also, if you can track down his journals online on making this movie and Dust Devil they are great reads. He also wrote a sequel to Hardware that's online as well in script form.
