| Plot Summary of Simon Sez |
|---|
""Simon Sez" is a medical thriller in the spirit of Shelley's classic "Frankenstein." The consequences are lethal when two unethical physicians test the boundaries of a revolutionary new drug that reverses brain damage, literally bringing the dead back to life. The experimental drug, however, enduces psychic and telekenetic episodes in the doctors' unwitting subjects, one of whom is driven to an insane frenzy of revenge and murder in this story of medical science run amok. "
