A medical thriller spanning two decades, The Ice Pick Technique combines overly eager physicians and experimental medical procedures in a fatal mix of lies, cover-ups, and murder.Pioneers in the newly developing field of lobotomy, Dr. Robert Jules and Dr. Simon Pierce recognize a chance to hone their skills while helping a patient recover. Pierce, a power-hungry ego maniac, convinces the patient that he needs a lobotomy in order to survive his severe depression. Following an unsuccessful operation, the inexperienced and overzealous Dr. Pierce attempts a highly-experimental transorbital lobotomy or The Ice Pick Technique.
