WANNA PLAY? I DARE YOU.
A teenage horror fan discovers a computer game that uses hypnosis to custom-tailor the game into the most terrifying virtual experience imaginable. When he emerges from the hypnotic trance he is horrified to find that a brutal murder depicted in the game actually happened in real life – and he might be the killer.
Brainscan. SLAPS.
A decent B-movie. Compare this to Videodrome to see why Videodrome is such an excellent movie. It has a similar theme, but while Brainscan “plays it safe” and follows a typical story structure with all kinds of standard tropes, you never really know where Videodrome is gonna take you.
One of the first horrors I taped from TV to VCR. Watched the movie 10+ times ever since. It’s also how I discovered Primus. His bedroom was my dream as a teen of similar age.

…the kid from Terminator is up there looking through her stuff and sees all the photos that she took of him. So no, it seems like that’s reality.
BUT after a couple seconds of credits, there’s a scene where that dog is running with that foot in its mouth. But there wouldn’t be a foot if it wasn’t real? That was a bit confusing.
Also, the Terminator kid does kinda git the girl, I mean she kisses him on the mouth and says they’ll talk about it later. I think he liked her better bc she played it coy and didn’t just fall into his arms.
I kinda thought when Terminator kid was looking thru her photos, he was gonna find another “Brainscan” disk. Then she’d come out of the other room with blood on her hands and mouth bc she just finished killing Biff, and she’d be like: “Some Brainscans are realer than others” or “you seemed to enjoy it so much…” or something.
I also kinda thought that the whole Brainscan thing was gonna be from his father.
