God made him simple. Science made him a god.
Our Crow Sister Amanda Waltz returns as Technology Terror month concludes with 1992's THE LAWNMOWER MAN.
Dr. Lawrence Angelo (Pierce Brosnan) pushes the boundaries of science with his experiments in virtual reality and cognitive enhancement, seeking to unlock untapped human potential. But as his test subject, Jobe Smith (Jeff Fahey), rapidly evolves beyond expectations, the consequences spiral into a dangerous struggle for control, morality, and the future of intelligence itself. Will our heroes make it to the next level? Find out here!
Also this week: Rain sticks, punk spiderweb butthole tattoos, and Lance tells us the major differences between the director's and theatrical cuts.
All this--and a whole lot more--on this week's episode of NEON BRAINIACS!
"This universe is mine. I am GOD here!"
