80s Scanners

was one of Cronenberg's early films that i did not have the chance to watch. On a recommendation by @mstanya88 i have watched it and it took a little bit time to sink in. It started with a premise more like "dangeorus mutants" kind of movie and lead to more of a "science gone wrong" theme we are familliar with. I really enjoyed this violent and gory take on telepathy. Telepathy is often pictured very clean and plain. Here its a matter of your "scanning" power to make someone go mad or make their whole head explode. And that head explosion gonna stick with me for a while. Loved every use of prosthetics l effects here. Only the final scene makes it worth giving the movie a chance. Illustration by Halil Karasu

The best place to go to learn to make heads explode.

10 seconds, the pain begins. 15 seconds, you can’t breathe. 20 seconds, you explode.

And Pop Goes The Weasel!

Something’s gone terribly wrong at the Somafree Institute of Psychoplasmics, where, through intense psychological role playing Dr. Hal Raglan (Oliver Reed) has been encouraging troubled clients to manifest their repressed emotions and desires as fleshy, distinctly Cronenbergian excrescences that soon appear on their skin. The case of prized-patient Nola (Samantha Eggar), a troubled woman with monstrous mommy issues, however, has become particularly worrying: It appears Nola’s deep-seated rage has begun taking on unexpected—and homicidal—forms.

The infamous head blowing up Scanner, Daryl Revok is ready to scream at your brain from the inside now in living color! Best to just let him go nuts on your shirt rather make your head go kaplooey.

The most iconic shot from the film Scanners.
