    It was dark, but had a weird ending. But I loved the acting

    For an older,low budget movie it was ok.I don't think they explained well enough for some at the beginning that she and her father were fakes until she started really hearing voices of dead people.I also didn't care for the weird ending.Not the very end,but the whole scene right...( read more) before with her father and the killer and her "presence".It seemed out of place and sort of just thrown in.

    Black Rainbow Summary:
    British director Mike Hodges brought an extra measure of integrity to this made-for-TV thriller. Rosanna Arquette stars as Martha Travis, a psychic who travels the rural American South with her alcoholic father, Walter (Jason Robards), plying her mystical ...( read more)trade for credulous yokels. In reality, Martha is a con woman whose only gift is the ability to defraud those who seek messages from dead loved ones. However, one night the bogus medium intercepts mental images of a murdered man whose wife is in the audience -- and indignantly proclaims that her husband is still very much alive. Within hours, however, Martha's vision becomes reality. Martha has suddenly developed the ability to see murders before they happen, but her newfound ability to prognosticate puts a professional contract killer on her trail. In the meantime, Martha becomes lovers with Gary Wallace (Tom Hulce), a small-town reporter who's intrigued enough by Martha to write a story about her, although he's skeptical about her supernatural talents
