Deadly Friend

Enjoy being really scared? Have we got a pal for you. Wes Craven (A Nightmare on Elm Street, Red Eye) directs "a witty ghoul story" (Caryn James, The New York Times) that combines artificial intelligence with all-too-genuine horror. Lonely teenage genius Paul (Matthew Laborteaux), a specialist in brain research, has two best friends: his remarkable robot BB and the beautiful girl next door (Kristy Swanson). When tragedy strikes both, he desperately tries to save them by pushing technology beyond its mortal limits and into a terrifying new realm. Like a modern-day Dr. Frankenstein, Paul discovers too late that he has created a rampaging monster. Your blood will run cold if it runs at all after meeting this Deadly Friend.
