Les Ramoneurs cérébraux
The Brainwashers

  1. Overview
  2. Fact Sheet

A man is taken to the doctor’s, but it’s not for an ordinary checkup. He looks terror-stricken. A huge syringe is thrust into his head. Out of the syringe oozes a sticky yellowish liquid that magically turns into two sinister-looking men, pale as corpses, dressed as 19th century chimney sweeps. What are they going to do in this poor man’s head?
