The brood may also be 15 material now. It's very similer in tone to Xtro.
Either way, I'll still be getting them, the certificatim system for movies of yester year facinates me.
It will be interesting to see what the BBFC decide in terms of the certification and customer guidelines for both titles and wouldn't be surprised if Scanners was, in the light of a seemingly more liberal approach by the boys at Soho Square, to see Scanners classified 15 as there is very little in the way of strong language and, if I remember correctly, no sex or nudity.

The Brood, however, would surprise me if it were given a 15 certificate due to the atmosphere, kills and general weirdness! As I said above though, I don't think there's any reason why a 15 certificate would be beyond the realms of possibility.

In any case, I'm sure you'll be able to acquire a copy of each by cheating or reasoning with your parents!
