BRAIN HARVEST (Synopsis)
It is first spotted in the night sky over Northport, Long Island: a strange silent air-craft making
impossible mid-air stops and turns. As Lisa McCarey, a young movie theatre employee walks
home along a desolate road, she comes in close contact with it. This disc shaped craft hovers
down to her, at tree-top level, and chases her. The craft flies off, abandoning the chase. After
this frightening incident, Lisa still manages to look forward to tomorrow. That's the day she is to
meet up with her long lost brother, Chane, whom she believes in living in poverty.
When she meets Chane, he is doing very well for himself, great clothes, a Mercedes, and a
highly positive outlook. They go to a restaurant where he tells her he is working in medical
research. Their current project is the Gladina Gland, a pea-sized piece of tissue between the
eye and the brain. It has no function. It doesn't handicap or hinder the person born with it.
Chane tells Lisa that once every ten years or so, one person on Earth is born with this gland.
Another UFO is spotted over the restaurant. After a few seconds, it vanishes. As Chane
drives Lisa home through the woods, he tells her that he has located one man with the gland, a
mean looking trucker named Reggie.
(In a flashback, we learn Chane has tracked Reggie down. The handsome Chane taunts
Reggie for his low class lifestyle, then uses a mysterious ray to immobilize Reggie.)
As Chane drives Lisa through the woods, a UFO begins to follow them, and eventually hovers
over the car. Chane calmly stops the car. Terrified, Lisa runs out of the car. Chane, assisted
by creatures that look like man-sized ants, corner Lisa, knock her out, and beam her up to the
waiting UFO.
On board the UFO, Lisa meets up with a frightened Reggie. He tells her that they both have
the Gladina gland, which has incredible value to the aliens. Reggie is dragged to an operating
table. He is strapped down, and without any anesthetics, is operated on. A powerful drill is
placed to his eye, and slowly drills downwards (This is conveyed mostly off camera)
The gland is extracted from Reggie's corpse. Now, Lisa is placed on the table. She manages
to escape, and is chased through the spacecraft. She makes a blind, panicked motion to kick
out a window and dive out.
She splashes down in a lake in the middle of the night. She swims out and gets to the
woods somewhere outside Los Angeles . The rest of the film finds her constantly on the run,
chased on a stolen motorcycle, ducking out in a crack house, hiding in a Sweet Sixteen party,
and more.
She also knows that Chane is targeting another person with the gland, a sweet little eight year
old girl named Cara. This double chase/rescue drives the second and third act of the film.
