Jerry Sangiuliano was born and died in Scranton, PA. He left behind four short films and one full-length movie, which will be the one we discuss today. It's a movie that says, "WARNING! An experiment in mind control is out of control ... and the body count is building!"
Laurie Stevens (Farrah Forke, Hitman's Run) is one of several college students who have signed up to improve the world of video games and end up becoming killers when flashes of light begin to reprogram their brains.
Yes, it's Polybius all over again, with the games that kids love being the cause of everything evil in the world, just like they always warned us they would be. They probably shouldn't have sat so close to the TV while they were at it.
Sangiuliano re-released this movie in 2013 as Fractals, which is an amazing piece of carny hucksterism, because as far as I know, video game graphics do not improve over the course of 22 years.
I've never understood movies where evil video game companies try to kill off their main target audience. It's the same reason why I never understood why Judas Priest and Ozzy wanted me to kill myself. Who else was going to buy their records?
