25-year-old Alex Borden's chance encounter with a mysterious stranger has found his intellect rapidly expanding, but as the power of his mind grows so too does the mystery of a brutal series of murders. Now, as the killer seems to set his sights on Alex, the frightened genius must use his newfound brain power to put an end to the mayhem once and for all.
Top critics, in their words
Ultimately fairly routine material, but it's hard to knock a film that includes among its cast such familiar faces as Olivia Hussey, Sean Young, William Atherton, Dee Wallace Stone and (the apparently obligatory for the genre) Udo Kier.
There are good ideas pulsing through Andrew van den Houten's horror flick, but once the script turns nasty, things fall apart -- and not just literally.
A small horror film with all the necessary gore and beasties and gratuitous nudity that this not-very-demanding genre demands.
