The premise
A young scanner with extraordinary telepathic powers transforms into a lethal killing machine after taking one of her father's experimental drugs.
Horror Vault's take
In this second sequel to David Cronenberg's cult classic, a gifted scanner discovers that her scientist father's experimental drug can supercharge her already-formidable telepathic abilities — at a steep psychological cost. What begins as a story of human potential quickly darkens as unchecked power warps ambition into something far more dangerous. A surviving scanner must race to confront the threat before it spirals beyond any hope of containment. Low-budget but energetic, it leans hard into the franchise's signature blend of telekinetic mayhem and paranoid sci-fi dread.
