The Lawnmower Man (1992)

Join Vincent and Tangella as they watch “The Lawnmower Man” from 1992 with Pierce Brosnan and Jeff Fahey.
"The Lawnmower Man" is a riveting 1992 science fiction horror film that delves into the unforeseen consequences of human experimentation. The story unfolds around Jobe Smith, a simple-minded gardener, who becomes the subject of Dr. Lawrence Angelo's groundbreaking research. Dr. Angelo, working for Virtual Space Industries, aims to enhance human intelligence using virtual reality and psychoactive drugs. However, the experiment takes a sinister turn when Jobe acquires not only superior intelligence but also psychokinetic and telepathic powers. This newfound power triggers a transformation in Jobe, leading him down a path of aggression and a quest to evolve into a digital entity. As Jobe's abilities grow, so does the danger he poses, culminating in a suspenseful climax where Dr. Angelo must confront the consequences of his creation. This film explores the ethical boundaries of scientific exploration and the volatile intersection of human consciousness and technology.

Love my Saturday's with Creature Features and my partner, we look forward to it here in Australia 🇦🇺 Wow haven't seen Lawn Mower Man in years! Think I last watched with my mother when it first came out on VHS 😅

[@transmaster]

This movie was disavowed by Stephen King, He even threatened to sue over the title. It has nothing to do with his book.

[@randycunningham7318]

His book was about some naked looney guy who ate grass off the lawn. No comparison whatsoever.

[@stevenyates6651]

It was a short story, not a book, and SK was either drunk or coked up when he wrote it, it made no sense at all. This film is much better, and the VHS version is better than this. Too many deleted scenes.

Back when this movie came out, virtual reality was the new heralded, technology that was set to take over. I heard some lofty claims that it would end human suffering as it held unlimited potentials. Well, 3 decades later, it certainly didn't live up to the hype but the movie is worth another watch.

Me too! Watching in England, let's enjoy it together💖

[@belindaelisa5618]

Yeah, the livestreams are a lot of fun. I missed it live last night. I'm in Virginia, USA and it was probably either midnight or 1am EST when the show started. I really needed the sleep. I think I had the best sleep all week, so it was worth the tradeoff. Remember that Creature Features is in San Francisco, CA, USA so that is PST, either 9pm or 10pm. They chose the best time, and their fans are all over the world having to figure out how to tune in if they don't live on the West Coast.

[@AstrosElectronicsLab]

I must admit, this was a good movie when I saw it back in the '90's. Yes, it's a B-grade movie, but it does touch on the fact of how far do we want to go with technology before the technology overtakes the humans. AI, VR, all reality now, just a concept then.

[@roddmatsui3554]

I enjoyed working on the special makeup and visuals on this movie. I was lucky to do the one stop motion animated shot in it.

I always loved this movie, one of my alltime favorites.. classic ! this movie deserves more credit than it gets, in my opinion it's really good even better than the book it is based on in fact.. it has nothing to do with the book it is based on exept there's a lawnmower in it. it reminds me more of rise of Planet of the apes or the fly... in a way

Oh God, I saw this in a theatre way back in 1992. I remember thinking at the time, 'apart from the appearance of a lawn-mower, this has absolutely nothing in common with the Stephen King short story it is 'based' upon. Way to go trying to use King's name to add commercial appeal to the movie. And the bowling-alley CGI has aged so well hasn't it?

@1:06:55..."The concept of 'dirty money' went out when the Catholic Church got into banking about 300 years ago".

[@rofalsaurasrex366]

did you also know that for this film The eight minutes of computer generated effects took seven people eight months to complete on a budget of $500,000. It was discovered through FBI tapes that this was former Waco cult leader David Koresh's favourite movie. Several of the symbols Jobe (Jeff Fahey) sees flying at him during his first VR treatment are demon evocation seals taken from the infamous Key of Solomon. Also When Dr. Angelo stimulates Jobe's brain using virtual reality, the symbols that fly at Jobe, at close inspection, are Kabbalistic mystical symbols with ancient Hebrew writing around them.Dr. Angelo's line "I've decided to take my work back underground" was used as a sample in the intro track for the Music For The Jilted Generation album by The Prodigy.

[@danielgehring7437]

I love how every character in this movie is a classic cardboard trope. The scientist obsessed with the next evolution in technology but is blind to its military applications, and, his polar opposite, the army man who doesn't give one tin crap about anything that can't immediately be used as a new weapon; the sex-crazed nympho; and if course, the lovable idiot who becomes a genius and now only wants to take over the world. I'd say it'd make a great drinking game except you'd have alcohol poisoning 20 minutes in.

I built one of those multi-axis gimbal rides, and I have actually worn a VR headset while on it. It's super disorienting but not terribly useful since there's no computer control over the thing's motion. It's not like you can use it as a flight simulator.
