A man's wife is under the care of an eccentric and unconventional psychologist who uses innovative and theatrical techniques to breach the psychological blocks in his patients. When their daughter comes back from a visit with her mother and is covered with bruises and welts, the father attempts to bar his wife from seeing the daughter but faces resistance from the secretive psychologist. Meanwhile, the wife's mother and father are attacked by strangely deformed children, and the man begins to suspect a connection with the psychologist's methods.

The Brood is one of director David Cronenberg`s most chilling and disturbing works, as shocking today as it was when originally released.
Frank Carveth is becoming increasingly concerned about his ex-wife Nola`s secretive treatment at the sinister 'Somafree Institute of Psychoplasmics'. Headed by cult figure Dr Raglan, his controversial and extreme methods seek to unleash his patients rage which take on physical manifestations.
As Nola`s increasingly psychoticanger is vented during her sessions, brutal murders befall those at whom it`s directed. When Frank`s daughter is abducted he is led to Raglan`s Insitute and a terrifying, repellant final confrontation, renowned as one of the most notorious scenes in horror cinema.

Indispensable.

Nun, der Ansatz ist interessant, leider ist der Film schon etwas älter und auch langsamer. Ob geschnitten oder nicht, sehen tut man sowieso nicht viel. Für heutige Verhältnisse ist die Brut ziemlich zahm, trotzdem ist die Vorstellung recht eklig.
