The story

What Is Robot Monster About?

The premise of Robot Monster without spoilers.

When moon‑born monsters invade Earth, a lone alien robot called Ro‑Man—shaped like a gorilla wearing a diving helmet—is dispatched to eradicate humanity. As humanity dwindles to six survivors, Ro‑Man becomes inexplicably drawn to one of them, torn between his lethal programming and a newfound compassion that challenges his mission.
