Scanners III opens during a Christmas party in a highrise apartment building where a dude accidentally scans his best friend (who’s dressed as Santa) over a ledge and he plummets to his death while children watch from the streets and an overhead shot zooms in on Santa’s…

This is such a nutso movie, even after an absurdly awesome intro that you think can’t get topped during the run time, Scanners III DELIVERS! As far as the other movies in this franchise go for me.... Cronenberg’s Scanners is runner up to this, followed by the fun Scanner…

Second sequel to David Cronenberg's classic Scanners and it's from the same director as the first sequel. This one is quite a remarkable improvement on the second film. Part three once again takes the basic scanner concept and weaves a new story with it. This time we focus…

"We are scanners. We are meant to be on the top!" So it is indeed not better than the second one. It's worse. Very huge downfall from the very good and unique first movie. I can't get this one fact inside my head. Why did they cast such bad actors for all three movies.…

This movie is dumb, ridiculous, and even worse than the second one. The practical effects are one of the few redeeming qualities, but that's about it. While the opening scene is decent, the rest is almost unwatchable. Boring characters, weak acting, and bad…

And the insane fun continues. Forgotten how much humour is in this one. Liliana Komorowska hammed it up good style as a Scanner who goes bloody mental after trying out a new treatment. Unlike the last film brother and sister are on opposing teams here. The opening Christmas…
