Based on Michael Crichton's novel, "The Terminal Man" is about an unfortunate gentleman, played by George Segal, who experiences "black outs" which causes him to have uncontrollably violent rages. He is sent to a hospital where surgeons attempt a ground breaking new type of brain surgery that will hopefully cure him, but that won't stop this mad man from escaping before the work is done! It's certainly an interesting flick but it should have been more chilling.
