Weird Science (1985) Synopsis

Incurably lonely, bullied bosom buddies and brilliant 15-year-old tech geeks Gary and Wyatt are at the end of their tether. Refusing to take this situation lying down, the school's outcasts envision the ideal woman, and in one of those spur-of-the-moment decisions, they summon up the courage to do the unthinkable: use their computer skills to create the perfect female companion, just like in The Bride of Frankenstein (1935). Now, science, fiction, and a bit of alchemy become one, and Lisa, the flawless teenage fantasy, appears out of thin air. Can the statuesque electronic genie teach the boys a thing or two about self-confidence before their parents return home?—Nick Riganas
