Scanners (1981)

This sci-fi horror is based on hypothetical events that make us wonder what kind of tech is being used against us. Scanners (people with telepathic powers) are identified by a tech company called ConSec, who then use them for dark, selfish gains.

While horror in the 80s didn’t have the best special effects, one scene has us pausing because the materials used are common in a standard kitchen. We won’t give away the gory details; just make sure you are finished eating before you watch.
