"The flick was about some pimpled, post-adolescent guy with bad hair, an unfortunate name like Poindexter or Mergetroid or something and a possessed computer that ruled his life.
"Now, I seem to remember this guy ripped people's hearts out--or maybe the computer did it (and this was before the Internet!).
"The shower scene involved an older woman, maybe this guy's mom, who got stampeded and dismembered by wild boars under the direction of the satanic computer.
"I also remember that the ending was really weak, with a heart pumping in the background as the manic megabytes claimed their final victim. Is this a classic I've somehow overlooked? I don't think so.''
