Dr. Blake runs a TV show called "Independent Thinkers", which is sort of a Scientology-like self-help/religion program. But he's not making his audience think any more independently - with the help of an alien organism he calls The Brain, he's using brainwashing and mind control. The only thing that stands between them and world domination is a brilliant but troubled high school student with a penchant for pranks...

Started great, but became a bit repetitive. This is one of those films that I would’ve enjoyed more if the central romance was between two guys.

Such an obvious Videodrome rip-off it’s really funny
Feels like something I should’ve seen ages ago because I’ve been aware of it for a while but just never got around to watching it
