Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

A mysterious woman appears suddenly on the Enterprise, renders the crew unconscious and then disappears with Spock's brain.

TREK TRIVIA
This episode features the first use of rear-projected images on the main viewing screen (the moving starfield and planetary-system graphics), and the first appearance of thermal controls on the crew's uniforms.
Before the opening titles, one security guard is shown lying unconscious on the bridge; after the opening titles, we see two unconscious guards!

This review is from: Star Trek - The Original Series, Episode 61: Spock's Brain [VHS] (VHS Tape)

One of the most amazing and bizarre episodes of Star Trek.. the pure ridiculousness and absurdity pulls you in and makes you wonder "how will they get spock's brain back from the beautiful space vixens!?!". Pure genius! One of the best episodes of Star Trek ever!

1.0 out of 5 stars Golden Turkey, May 15, 2009

By 

Lokai (Ohio, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Star Trek - The Original Series, Episode 61: Spock's Brain [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Spock's Brain is what people would call a "golden turkey". This means that a movie/episode is so bad it's good. Spock's Brain is perhaps the best example of a "golden turkey". This episode will keep you laughing all 51 minutes. It is obvious that the cast members were embarrassed acting out certain scenes. Spock is visibly embarrassed walking around like Frankenstein and Kirk is practically laughing at the end when he asks Spock how he is doing.

3.0 out of 5 stars "Brain, brain, what is brain?" ---Alien bimbo, June 26, 2002

By 

picardfan007 (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Star Trek - The Original Series, Episode 61: Spock's Brain [VHS] (VHS Tape)

In this one an alien bimbo with a short skirt takes Spock's brain to run a planet. It's one of those we need your vast intelligence to save our world episodes. We get to see McCoy perform brain surgery on our favorite Vulcan. He has to put his brain back. That's the tricky part. That's the big hightlight of the episode. The hokey scene where McCoy is given the information to perform the surgery. It would have been good if Mystery Science Theater 3000 got a hold of this one.
