''Westworld'' is a 1973 film by [[Michael Crichton]]. [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future|In the near future]], the Delos resort offers simulations of the [[Wild West]], [[The Middle Ages|Medieval Britain]], and [[Ancient Rome]]. Each park has a population of [[Deceptively -Human Robots|robots]], who visitors interact with however they wish. As a part of the Delos experience, one can fight with them, seduce them, and even kill them. After all, the robots are programmed not to feel pain or fight back, and the weapons provided only work on machines. [[Blatant Lies|They're harmless.]]
 
Two friends, John Blane (James Brolin) and Peter Martin (Richard Benjamin), arrive in Delos to get away from their busy lives. They head into Westworld, where John has been many times before, to have fun and act out various Western-themed scenarios. In particular, the mousy Peter [[A Real Man Is a Killer|earns his manhood]] by defeating the local gunslinger (Yul Brynner) in a duel. In the middle of the night, the robots are rounded up and sent in for repairs, ready for the next day's events.
