Brain Dead was based on a script by Charles Beaumont, leading some obtuse fans to hail the "return" of that frequent Twilight Zone contributor. Actually Beaumont has been dead since 1967, so this cookie spent a long time in the oven. Stalwart supporting actor Bill Pullman is given star billing as a brilliant brain surgeon who agrees to perform an operation on a psychotic mathematician. This surgery, ostensibly, is to "adjust" the patient's attitude--and, incidentally, to unlock the corporate secrets secreted within the patient's brain. But as Pullman probes about, he begins experiencing first-hand the psycho's fevered, paranoic dreams. Pullman drifts farther and farther from reality, and the audience is implicitly invited to do the same. Bill Paxton also stars in this Roger Corman-style thriller, produced by Corman's daughter Julie. Hal Erickson, Rovi

Bill Paxton, Bill Pullman. New. 2018 Run time: 85. Buy with confidence-Satisfaction Guaranteed! Delivery Confirmation included for all orders in the US.
From Twilight Zone scribe, Charles Beaumont, 'Brain Dead' is a unique and twisted B-movie science fiction chiller that warps into itself to a bizarre reality tale involving Bill Pullman's neurologist investigating the mental health of a mathematician, played by Bud Cort, while scrutinized by a corporate cutthroat by Bill Paxton in a conspiracy outside the scope of reality. The movie does invoke a lot of depth, paranoia, and surprise with the jump cuts and low-grade special effects. A movie for 80's & 90's horror films or fans to both Bill Paxton & Bill Pullman.
