Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
Dr. Blake (David Gale) is a psychologist who hosts a popular television program broadcast from the Psychological Research Institute. Viewers don't realize that the demented doctor is in league with a giant brain from outer space, and together they plan to take over the city with mind control. Jim (Tom Breznahan) is the teen troublemaker sent to the institute for therapy. Jim learns of the fiendish plot when teens begin committing suicide, and he enlists the help of his girlfriend Janet (Cyndy Preston) to foil the evil plan.
