Plot

Frank is worried about the treatment his wife is receiving at "The Clinic of Psychoplasmics" and when he starts to investigate his nearest and dearest are put under threat from a bunch of vicious, childlike mutants. Effective, and once banned, vintage Cronenberg body-horror. The difference between the two discs contained here are that the UK version is r-rated and the US version is the fully uncut and superior version. Soon-to-be-fathers should think twice about renting this one!
