Spiderhead Review: A Mostly Successful Netflix Mind-Trip

Top Gun: Maverick aces, director Joseph Kosinksi and star Miles Teller, fly high again in a twisted psychotropic thriller. Based on The New Yorker short story by George Saunders, Spiderhead has a conniving scientist testing mind-altering drugs in a remote prison facility. There are no cells or locked doors. The convicts are free to roam and interact. The catch is that they are volunteers for clinical trials. Subject to lust, laughter, and aggression at the tap of a button. Spiderhead saps the capacity for self-control and free will. It's a disturbing and somewhat comical head trip set to a rocking eighties soundtrack.
