The Frankenstein legend takes an uproarious twist in this outrageous special effects-laden comedy from the writer-director of Sixteen Candles and The Breakfast Club. Critically acclaimed filmmaker John Hughes is at it again, giving nerdy computer whiz Ilan Mitchell-Smith and his best friend, Anthony Michael Hall, power to create the "perfect woman" (Kelly LeBrock). Like a computer-generated fairy godmother, the duo's out-of-this-world creation guides the pair through the pleasures and pitfalls of adolescence. With a rock beat supplied by many music superstars including Oingo Boingo, this far-out, sci-fi fable brings everyone's favorite teen fantasies to life through the miracle of Weird Science.

Weird Science Film Synopsis

Two unpopular teenagers, Gary and Wyatt, fail at all attempts to be accepted by their peers. Their desperation to be liked leads them to "create" a woman via their computer. Their living and breathing creation is a gorgeous woman, Lisa, whose purpose is to boost their confidence level by putting them into situations which require Gary and Wyatt to act like men.

Watched this in the theaterLoved this movie back when I was a kid. Anthony Michael Hall was as brilliant and funny as usual and the whole cast complimented one another. My only gripe is that this movie is in 4K and Apple still hasn’t updated it to reflect the change. Not only that, but there is an extended version, also not included. Apple is known for taking their sweet time in upgrading their movies to 4K and I can almost bet that they will be charging for the 4K Extended version of the film..Score: 5/5

Its greatThis is an awesome 80's flick would recommend for anybody.Score: 5/5

Funny John HughesI find it funnny looking at it now they built a goddess with floppy discs and an early to mid 80s pc. This movie could never be made now- whomp whomp. Plus, the fact they wouldn’t be doing what 15-16 y/o boys would do with Kelly LeBrock is the most far fetched thing of the entire movie. I doubt they’d leave the house for the rest of their lives!.Score: 5/5

ONE OF THE BEST!!It doesn’t get any better than this movie. John Hughes is a master and has turned all his movies into gold. Very sad that he passed at such a young age I can only imagine the Movies that he would have made if he was still with us… This movie has such a great cast… It oozes the early to mid 80s at its finest the comedy is hysterical and it’s such a fun ride you cannot NOT give this movie five stars!.Score: 5/5

Gary und Wyatt sind zwei arme Würstchen. Bei Ihren Mitschülern gelten sie als absolute Nullen und bei den Mädchen schlägt jeder Annäherungsversuch fehl. Doch eines Tages kommt ihnen eine phantastische Idee: Sie entwickeln sich ihre Traumfrau mit ihrem Homecomputer. L.I.S.A. heißt das umwerfende Ergebnis: Sie ist atemberaubend schön und super intelligent. Obendrein kann sie zaubern und erfüllt den beiden „Hobby-Frankensteins“ jeden Wunsch. Für Gary und Wyatt beginnt nun eine irre Zeit. – Aber auch eine Zauberfee schafft Probleme: Wie soll man den Eltern erklären, dass im Kinderzimmer eine Pershing-Rakete steht, die Großeltern im Kühlschrank eingefroren sind und Bruder Chet, in ein wabbeliges Monster verwandelt wurde …

Gary e Wyatt sono due adolescenti molto imbranati, specie con le ragazze e divengono spesso e volentieri oggetto di scherno da parte dei loro coetanei. Un giorno, in seguito alla visione in tv di un film di Frankenstein, decidono, servendosi del computer di Wyatt, di creare la donna ideale; salta fuori così Lisa, una ragazza bellissima e praticamente perfetta, che si rivelerà per di più dotata di poteri straordinari. Così, per Gary e Wyatt, si apre una serie di appassionanti avventure che li porterà a maturare e ad avere fiducia nei loro mezzi, riuscendo, grazie all'aiuto di Lisa, a conquistare il cuore di due loro coetanee ed a ottenere popolarità tra i loro compagni di scuola.

De to nørdede highschool-elever Gary og Wyatt har ikke det store held med hverken pigerne eller populariteten. Mens Wyatts forældre er ude at rejse beslutter de derfor, godt trætte af det hele, at designe et computerprogram, som kan skabe den perfekte kvinde - og da det på sensationel vis lykkes, tager de to fyres liv en gigantisk drejning. Den smukke kvinde døber de Lisa - og hun viser sig at være i besiddelse af en række ganske særlige evner. Snart er Gary og Wyatt på vej til at blive de to mest populære skikkelser på skolen - men hvor længe kan lykken vare, når man har en halvpsykopatisk storebror på nakken hele tiden? Og er det nu også helt uden problemer sådan at skabe smukke kvinder på sin computer?

Als de twee jongens op een avond de film Frankenstein hebben gezien, krijgen ze het lumineuze idee om een aantal foto's van mooie vrouwen via een scan in de computer te plaatsen. Het experiment wordt echter harde realiteit als er na een enorme explosie een bloedmooie vrouw in de kamer staat.
