Brain chemistry research has produced a drug - Nirvana - that can wipe out addiction and mental illness by stimulating pleasure centers in the brain and flooding the brain with endorphins.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its horror from a classic sci-fi premise about a medical breakthrough gone terribly awry. It relies on the visceral fear of bodily transformation and the chilling concept of a predator driven by a biochemical need.

What lingers after the credits is a familiar, yet effective, cautionary tale about tampering with human chemistry, wrapped in a suitably grim and tense package. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Terry Michael King
