And here we are...

This was a summer-mini TV series in 2016 - months before an 'unusual' election. About the thinking (&/or brain invasion) in Congress.

Synopsis: A prescient and camp film - TV actually - portraying Congressional brains being taken over in insidious ways. In what was a very favorite TV mini-summer series, starring “Monk” (Tony Shalhoub) in a very different role - a #GQP fascist type Congressman who is infected with an alien worm making him that way - and infecting large swaths of Congress. As some horrified, uninfected ("woke") staffers watch.

Brain Dead

Haven’t seen it since. Mind-blowing. Accurate! (as metaphor). Funny. And YES! Here’s a collage I found of a few short trailers. Thanks for the memory. Sure sounds like Congress today too, no?
