Limitless story line very familiar

Rating: 10/10 (22 August 2016)

While I found this movie extremely entertaining, the story line to a small degree resembles an episode from the old Outer Limits TV Series titled Expanding Human. The story line was that a group of professors and students at a college were experimenting with an experimental new drug that enhanced both the mind and the body. It allowed one of the professor's, Skip Homier, after taking the drug, to become this hulking strong man with super strength and intelligence. The opening teaser of the episode shows this hulking figure slowly walking down a college hallway in the middle of the night and ripping a steal door off its hinges and then choking the night watchmen while he holds him two feet off the floor. Watch the episode and you may see some similarities between Limitless and this episode.
