OLE BRYCE
 

Starring: Tom Sizemore (Saving Private Ryan, Heat), Massi Furlan (Bad Boys for Life, Jumanji: The Next Level), Gary Anthony Sturgis (Battlefield America, Virtuosity), Rhonda Mormon (TV's Motown Magic, ), Maurice Antonio

In 1968 on the heels of the historic Tuskegee Syphilis Study, two white doctors, Bryce and Feldman launched a secret experiment to find a cure for white mental illness. However, tired of using rats as test subjects they decided to use Negro men instead. The premise was to see if negro's (who's brains were thought to be smaller than whites) had the same mental illness trait of whites. In order to find out they needed to perform lobotomies on their subjects. The story is told from the point of view of Malcolm Wyatt, who's family had first-hand knowledge of what was going on at Ole B.R.Y.C.E, as his brother Martin was one of the casualties of this shocking human experiment.
