AfrAId on the Peacocks. It's about a family whose smart house goes all Skynet on them. This has been done before and mostly done better. You get the feeling throughout the movie that there were a lot of scenes cut out because a lot of what the characters do and say seem like a huge overreaction. The husband in particular seems hugely freaked out by the AI assistant in his home for no really good reason. I mean, we the audience know it's evil but he's not supposed to, at least not at that point in the movie, so it makes you think there must have been scenes that were cut out that explain why he's not Viking with the AI.
