My genius parents took my brother and I to see SCANNERS in the theater.
Watched the whole fucking thing.
But that was back when your parents could beat you for waking them up at night with nightmares so I don't think it ruined their night.
Watched that movie for the first time recently. Man does it read like a low budget movie nowadays.
Ironically I totally dig the movie's effects today, there's a whole shotgun setup they used that is awesome. https://slate.com/culture/2014/07/scanners-exploding-head-scene-how-they-shot-it-as-revealed-on-the-new-criterion-collection-dvd-video.html
