Review of Scanners (1981) by Mike P — 24 Jun 2008
Awesome movie! Pure Cronenberg with some very trippy ideas and visuals. I loved the walk-in sculpture of a human head, and the final battle between Cameron and revok has to be one of the greatest fight scenes ever filmed.
Also, the sound effects make this movie, without them it wouldn't be half as creepy or interesting. The film's only real drawback is Stephen Lack, who plays such a dullard. I never really felt any sympathy for him and he never seemed to show any real emotion.
