Scanners - Ihre Gedanken können töten (1981)
Außenseiter Vale leidet unter seiner telepathischen Begabung, Gedanken lesen zu können. Als ihn Agenten des mysteriösen Dr. Ruth entführen, wird ihm bei Experimenten klar, dass er weitere Gaben hat. Grund ist das Medikament „Ephemerol“, das Frauen zur Zeit von Vales Geburt während der Schwangerschaft verabreicht wurde. Vale trifft auf Halbbruder Revok, der alle Telekineten und Telepathen, „Scanner“ genannt, aufspürt, um mit ihrer Hilfe die Weltherrschaft anzutreten. Vale organisiert eine Anti-Scanner-Brigade. Die Brüder liefern sich ein tödliches Duell.
Der Regisseur: David Cronenberg
