Episode description

Plug in to your worst nightmare.

Technology Terror month continues with 1993's GHOST IN THE MACHINE.

A serial killer's soul is transferred into a computer network after a freak accident, allowing him to continue his deadly spree through the electrical grid. As victims pile up, a determined woman, her tech-savvy son, and a skilled hacker team up to stop him before it's too late. Did The Boys find this one to be broad band quality or 56K? Find out here!

Also this week: Our first computers, the return of "the butt cut", and Lance rants on A Minecraft Movie memes and a grumpy gas station Patron.

All this--and a whole lot more--on this week's episode of NEON BRAINIACS!

"Excuse me... a little stiff. Caught a b**** of a virus."
