So, like, you're telling me that this movie that I've owned for over a year isn't actually the Peter Jackson film about the person who gets bitten by a Sumatran rat monkey, no, but an old 1990s B-movie directed by No-One Important? Oh.
Bill Pullman and Bill Paxton together at last…but they don’t get to kiss?! What idiot directed this?—BOOOO!!!
"Brain Dead" is a 1990 psychological horror film that dives into the realm of mad scientists and disbursements of varied realities. While all this is done, the film carries somewhat of a campy tone to add an element of fun into the mix. This is not to say that the…
I friggin' loved this!! 1990 but had that wonderful dingy, cheapish looking beautifully grainy, gripping, slightly TV feel of great 80s stuff like Scanners. I'm glad I never saw a trailer for it or anything as it really turned into something I was not expecting at all. Bill…
Scientist Blill Pullman and skeevy business man Bill Paxton battle one another in this 90s battle of the Bills. Plus there's secret experiments, white rooms, and enough jars of brains to fill a Costco. This was a movie poster that always intrigued me over the years but…

Bill Pullman may or may not be a neurosurgeon who may or may not get recruited by friend Bill Paxton to perform experimental brain surgery on Bud Cort who may or may not have killed his family and may or may not have highly sensitive information that he may or may not have…
This film brings the ultimate conundrum with both Bill Paxton and Bill Pullman being in the same film so no confusion. It's a double bill!!! I enjoyed the idea and paranoia detailed with it's myriad character confusion and self identity being constantly in question but it…
The Bills Pullman and Paxton at it again! This movie is nuts. It’s half dream, half trippy twilight zone. It’s hard to tell what’s real and what’s not. The premise starts out great—but slowly devolves into surreal and abstract scenes and imagery meant to intrigue and disturb. Still a fun, weird…
Very disappointed by this. Didn’t enjoy it at all. Hated the characters and thought the acting was massively subpar. Some decent effects (they’re the reason I watched) but they don’t carry this disappointing snoozefest
7/10 this was a proper head burner
