Stephen King cult film Lawnmower Man starred Jeff Fahey and Pierce Brosnan.
The film that introduced virtual reality to the general public 25 years ago is to be remade – this time, in the form of a virtual reality series.
The Lawnmower Man, adapted from a Stephen King short story, was a minor hit in 1992 with its tale of a simple-minded man (Jeff Fahey) who becomes an evil genius after being used as a guinea pig by VR researcher Dr Lawrence Angelo (Pierce Brosnan). But it has since come to be regarded as something of a cult classic, and as one of the first depictions in mass culture of the immersive three-dimensional medium known as virtual reality.
