Brainstorm by the DVD Man

Brainstorm, starring Christopher Walken & Natalie Wood (her last movie), is very entertaining. It's about recording a person's thoughts, feelings, emotions, senses, etc. and recording them and transmitting them to other people.

Louise Fletcher plays the main Scientist and as she's dying from a heart attack (it's really a big movie about the evils of chain smoking), she records her last 30 seconds of life...

There is also the Military-Industrial Complex sub-plot with a Mad Scientist who resembles an albino Dr. Frankenstein, who hijacks the project.

The three best parts for me are:

1. There must be at least 50-75 tape drives in this movie, which is definitely an all time record - all kinds, little ones, gigantic ones, vacuum drives, video drives, etc.
2. Lots of evil, taunting industrial robots that made me laugh. Scene: Security guard gets knocked over by a robot arm, runs out of the doors and then comes flying back in on a robot forklift full of cans of expanding foam - Gee Whiz, I wonder what's going to happen with that? Another forklift crashes into a door and spills about a billion Styrofoam peanuts! Guard slips under the expanding foam in the robot room. Excellent!
3. Last, but not least.... A perfect Frank inclusion!!! Evil albino Mad Scientist picks up the phone and says: "Frank, call the rest of the group" No credits, no person, just a Frank on the phone. What could be better than that? I had to back up the DVD just to make sure.
