Brain Damage
SKINOPSISSo, this phallic parasitic wormy-creature get's in this guy Brian's brain and pumps him full of some wacky, blue goo that gets dude higher than the Hubble, right? Now, he's tripping his damn face off and feeling real, real good. So good in fact, that having a freaking penis-worm named Aylmer setting up shop in his dome and talking to him doesn't seem like much of a bother at all. For Brian, it seems like it's almost nice to have company - especially when said company's got that 'good shit.' That is, until Brian realizes Aylmer has been using his drugged-out body to kill innocent folks and suck out their brains. Bummer.If you learn nothing else from this film, it's say no to parasitic dick-like alien things, no matter how good their drugs are. And whatever you do, don't let those fucked-up talking penises play house in your cerebellum. No matter what your friends say; it's not really that 'cool' and it's just going to lead to trouble. Plus, after a while the high-pitched voice get's annoying. As for the 'juicy' parts - there's a pretty crazy oral sex scene where Brian has some rocker chick going down on him to give brain (ie. blowjob) and gets that crazy Aylmer all up in her mouth going for her brain. Also, Brian's somewhat irritating girlfriend (Jennifer Lowry) shows boobage a couple times, once in a sex scene with Brian. -- Paul James
REVIEW
If you loved Frankenhooker or Basket Case, then this offbeat gem is for you. In a sharp parable about drug addiction, Herbst must cater to his talking parasite's every whim, or be deprived of its euphoria-inducing excreta. Horror show host Zacherley supplies the voice for the wise-cracking slug. Editor's Suggestions
