How could I forget about this little piece of obscure trash? It also aired almost every three months on USA Up All Night (even on Latin American version).
To be honest, there's little to mention about this "Weird Science" carbon copy except for Horror elements and the occasional sleaze.
There aren't any interesting scenes, no gore, almost non-existent sensuality/sexuality, and worst of all, the acting is atrocious.
Seriously, any episode of "Weird Science" is scarier than this.
I enjoyed this movie for two reasons: I love low budget trash. It aired on my favorite T.V. Show of all time.
Those were the days where late 80's / early 90's crap was fun to watch.

A favorite on USA's now cancelled Up All Night and a very obscure title to find. The film is a horror updating on the classic teen comedy Weird Science. It makes very little sense, but I'll try to explain it for you....
The film is about two feuding brothers living together in an isolated mansion. One of them is a computer geek and the other is a stud. The stud seems to be in bed with his girlfriend all the time. However, one day the brother that is a computer geek finally is able to create his dream woman on a computer, but things get out of control and the computer generated woman turns into a demon who kills everyone in sight.
This could have been a campy low budget treat, but it isn't. The budget is so small that it doesn't even leave room for standard cinematic devices, like halfway decent editing or make-up. The film moves along at a snail's pace and the acting is really terrible. The cast must have known they were making a campy film, but they fail to play up to the camp elements of the film. And the horror elements are unfocused and rushed at best. Still if I ever happen to catch it on TV, I always find myself watching it.
Rated R; Violence, Profanity, Nudity, Sexuality
