<p>What was the cheap Lovecraft based movie about the Pineal gland called. It let him see into another dimension where he'd get attacked by muscle strands with mouths. The main character was the same guy who was in the Re-Animator (another gross flick) . &nbsp;</p> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

Gotta love the plot summary - Scientists create a resonator to stimulate the pineal gland (sixth sense), and open up a door to a parallel (and hostile) universe.</p><p>&nbsp;See, all you need is resonator &nbsp; Maybe you'll luck out and&nbsp;open up a door to a friendly parallel universe. </p><p>&nbsp;Humans are such easy prey.</p> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>
