Next in the series, we're watching David Cronenberg's body-horror classic, Scanners.

Scanners are people with dangerously powerful telepathic powers who have been weaponised by a sinister corporation. When one scanner (Michael Ironside) begins to build an underground army, another scanner, reclusive outsider Cameron (Stephen Lack), is recruited to stop him.

Classic body horror from David Cronenberg presents an elegantly polished series of gory special effects.

1981 | R18+ | 100 mins | CAN | D: David Cronenberg

‘Scanners offers at least one literally eye-popping moment and another that can only be called mind-blowing.’ – Variety
