This low-budget Canadian weirdness involves the diabolical schemes of pop psychologist Dr. Blake (David Gale, who played a far more convincing horror villain in Re-Animator), the host of an incredibly popular TV self-help show called "Independent Thinking." Blake takes a particular interest in the case of a juvenile delinquent (Tom Breznahan), whose brain is fitted with a special transmitter linking him to a giant, bug-eyed, fanged brain monster, which begins to remotely control his will. Sort of a blend of Videodrome and The Brain from Planet Arous by way of EC Comics, this would have come off as a fairly clever sci-fi/horror sleeper if not for the ridiculous special effects: the monster is essentially a big brain-shaped rubber balloon with a cartoonish face on it.
