Review Summary
DEADLY FRIEND is a movie directed by Wes Craven in 1986.

Paul is a little genius in the artificial intelligence field. When his neighbour Samantha falls into a coma, he steals her corpse and implants a micro-chip in her brain.

The sole interesting aspect of the picture is its vague parody of the Frankenstein movies.


Daniel Staebler, Resident Scholar
