I saw "Deadly Friend", Wes Craven's 1986 sci-fi/horror film about a girl who gets a robot's processor implanted in her brain and starts killing people.
So I remember I saw this movie shortly after its release. It couldn't have been at release because we watched it at home, but it couldn't have been too long after because I was a little kid, either 6 or 7 years old.
I didn't remember a lot about this movie, just some of the basics:
1) There was a yellow robot with a round head.
2) Something happened to the robot.
3) The robot was reincarnated inside a girl.
4) The girl kills someone by throwing a basketball at that person's head.
Point 4 is a rather famous scene in the movie. The basketball makes this crotchety old woman's head completely explode. Seeing that had a profound impact on a little kid who didn't know much. See, after that, I thought that could actually happen, and spent years being terrified of basketballs.
I hadn't thought much about the movie or even remembered the title until yesterday, when Cracked mentioned it in an article. After that, I had to see it. What a gloriously dumb movie. What a stupid ending. I guess the robot processor also reconfigured the girl's physiology somehow?

? Like it also created Borg nanoprobes or something?
