Scanners (1981)

After a man with extraordinary—and frighteningly destructive—telepathic abilities is nabbed by agents from a mysterious rogue corporation, he discovers he is far from the only possessor of such strange powers, and that some of the other “scanners” have their minds set on world domination, while others are trying to stop them.

Passed uncut for cinema. Scanners was on the Section 3 Nasties List and was liable for seizure and forfeiture by the police. Also passed uncut for video in 1987.
