@bitgod: They expose themselves to some kind of ray that activates the pineal gland and makes it grow until it bursts out of their foreheads.

I'm trying to remember what happens in From Beyond, did the pineal gland come out on it's own, or did he give it a lil help?

@regis: I totally remember the push-botton case.

Yes to drill your head movie night . . . are there other self-drilling brain movies? It seems to be a weirdly common fantasy.

one edition of the vhs version of this movie had an awesome case -- you'd push the button and the frankenhooker on the box would way "WANNADATE?"

i always thought it would be a great double-feature with "pi": the DRILL YOUR HEAD movie night.

Truly one of the greatest films involving, well, anything.
