Being home sick on a holiday week means you may watch some really bad movies. Just finished watching the whole "Deathwish" collection and then "Futureworld". It will never cease to amaze me how a "franchise" and one or two "former marquee" names can get a production financed, no matter how bad the script, direction, production value and quality. Cable TV and streaming gives life to these clunkers.
So, "Futureworld" will probably get some air time in the coming months due to the HBO "WESTWORLD" reboot. And, there is even some linkage (the value of the park is the data and info, not the admission fees). But this is a made-for-TV style, 1970's production. Can you do something as iconic as "Easy Rider" and then this and still live with your self. I guess Peter Fonda said "Hell, yeah!".
Any movie with Blythe Danner gets a least a vote about 2 points beyond what it deserves. Since I gave this a 2, draw your conclusion........
