Any movies about mind control - Blu-ray Forum

Do you know of any movies from the 60's or 70's that involve a man having a Mind control or some kind of Brain device placed on his head.

"The Terminal Man"

an interesting little long forgotten film from 1974 starring George Segal.

That's the one that immediately came to mind to me.
Great movie!

The Ipcress File.

Altered States is a pretty good one.

Not the most obvious choices, I know, but wouldn't these be valid in some way too?

- The Matrix

Our whole lives are created by the machines that are connected to our brains. And in the end, didn't Neo just do his job, as programmed?

- The Truman Show

Every human being surrounding him, every single event happening to him, the whole environment he's living in ... All are being influenced the whole time by the TV God living upstairs. I would say that's some kind of mind control.

- Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Others trying to erase certain memories by messing with your brains, while you try to save them from the inside. I would say that's fighting sort of mind control.

Edit : Sorry, didn't see the 60s-70s part.

Videodrome - early 80's sure.. but still a necessary inclusion

Another 80's example. The Naked Gun.

Does this count as mind control?

EDIT: nevermind I didn't read the OP re: movies from 60s and 70s.

Theories abound that Eyes Wide Shut was loaded with subtextual references to CIA mind control techniques.

...missed the part about the 60s/70s.
