 | | Soon, Susan lies prone in the basement lab, being brainfed Tronish variations on Kubrick’s “Beyond the Infinite” bugout as the supercomputer plants his demon seed. |
 | | This is partly due to the oddity of the character, who, in her professional capacity, is seen comforting an annoyingly manic little girl, and whom we are later told suffered the loss of her own daughter. |
 | | Demon Seed recasts HAL as the ultimate, intangible bugaboo, revisits Rosemary’s insemination for its biological, and not its occult, unpleasantness, and re-erects an electric house that is not fraught with faulty, schlemiel-baiting technology, but is instead menacingly and incontrovertibly perfect. |
