Summary: A normal, average guy who lives in New York City becomes dependent on an evil, disembodied brain. The brain feeds the guy a narcotic substance in exchange for his unwilling assistance in obtaining the brains of innocent victims for sustenance. This turns into a tour of circa-1980s underground NYC clubs, backlots, and other seedy locations. One scene features the band Swimming Pool Cues playing the song "Corruption." (imdb)

I knew the movie was great during the ridiculous SURPRISE alien pretending to be a penis fellatio brain eating scene.

Bizar but sometimes pretty cool. That ear scene is hilarious and the ending quite strange. Lot's of blood, brains and screaming

Sometimes entertaining, mostly off-putting. I found a few scenes objectionable, including one that too closely resembled forced oral copulation (edit: this should be painfully obvious to anyone with even half a brain, regardless of where it currently resides). As usual, weird misogyny ruined an otherwise decent film.

Features quite possibly the best scene in any movie: The worm/parasite blowjob. Pure class.

There's a certain understated brilliance about it. Like a Twilight Zone from Hell.

A parasitic brain sucking alien slug thing attaches to some guy's brain and pumps him full of psychedelic chemicals and turns him into his slave. The guy then goes all over New York finding people to kill so the slug can eat their brain. Very cheesy with a few gross out scenes and plenty of splatter. There's also some cool shots that try to simulate the effect of being under the influence of the alien's brain drug. Of course, see the uncut version.

Henenlotter's best. A wonderfully insane horror film that might be summarized as "The Tingler Takes a Trip"
