About this release
Two teenage geeks (Anthony Michael Hall and Ilan Mitchell-Smith) create the perfect woman (Kelly Le Brock) with their computer in John Hughes' Weird Science. Over the course of the film, Hughes piles on a lot of tasteless, silly jokes and ridiculous plot twists, as the boys learn that what is important is who people are, not what they look like.
