Review of Scanners (1981)

By David U (652) on 09 Dec 2011

Interesting premise, some cool gore and related effects, terrible acting for the most part, and ultimately a little too cheesy…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Cody Y (165) on 10 Nov 2011

Daivd Cronenberg is a tour-de-force, once you seen this movie you will never forget…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Ben H (1,875) on 09 Nov 2011

The subtle use of the sound effect of a kettle boiling (whistling) as someone is being scanned, is enough to even allow the audience to feel…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Marvin H (105) on 24 Oct 2011

Some pretty terrible acting in this one…

I rather enjoyed this…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Kevin H (1,172) on 28 Jul 2011

This film is ridiculously dated, but I give it credit for originality. Also interesting to see Cronenberg's early work…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Matt W (1,718) on 15 Jul 2011

Jeremy fuckin' Ironside is Brilliant. Loved the disturbing soundtrack, special effects, and an amazing climax…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Coxxie M (339) on 14 Jul 2011

The beginning of David Cronenberg's career makes the second half of Rob Zombie's career look like Quentin Tarantino's career…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Cody S (430) on 05 May 2011

Mind Blowing Sci-Fi Classic from Cronenberg…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Robert A (771) on 02 May 2011

There is a lot more to this film than just an exploding head…

I remember watching this movie and honestly thought my head was gonna explode..ergh…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Michael C (2,821) on 07 Apr 2011

This is another rare film that everybody should see. Michael Ironside is great as the villain. The effects are very realistic…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Lorne L (123) on 01 Apr 2011

One of the most shocking and fascinating horror films from the 80's and another Cronenberg classic…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Sailormoon797 F (78) on 23 Mar 2011

Classic crazy Cronenberg movie, a must see for fans of his work. If you're not a fan of his you'll probably get confused and frustrated watching it…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Brandon B (918) on 07 Mar 2011

Listen up folks! In just 1 hour and 40 minutes, you too can learn how NOT to act! That's right…

One of the cult masterpiece from Mr.Cronenberg.. ooohh…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Ian M (1,478) on 19 Jan 2011

Harvinaisen aliarvostettu teos. Juoni on hieno ja olihan tÃ¤Ã¤ nyt ajallaan melkoinen edellÃ¤kÃ¤vijÃ¤…

Review of Scanners (1981)

By Ricardo M (270) on 10 Jan 2011

Another great sci-fi horror movie from Cronenberg. The special effects are so cool, and the story is interesting. I love this movie…
