Brian comes under the addictive spell of a parasite with the ability to induce euphoric hallucinations in its hosts.
VIBE
This film is a visceral, hallucinatory trip into the darkest corners of addiction. It's a wild, gross-out ride that feels like a fever dream, blending body horror with a darkly comedic, propulsive energy. Pure 80s cult chaos.
