    Some great effects along the way, coupled with Richard Burton's menacing acting make this a must see.

    Richard Burton's considerable charisma adds weight to this supernatural chiller, in which a psychic is able to cause catastrophes with the power of his mind. The MTV generation may find it a little slow, but fans of The Omen and The Exorcist will not be disappointed.

    An underrated Sci-Fi jewel that is well directed and cast. This is a dark, powerful, haunting and intelligent psychological thriller.

    Absolute belter of a film. The plane crash sequence was brialliant for its time and Burtons acting was excellent.
  • October 3, 2009
    Hogwash telepathy melodrama. Burton looks like hell and acts bored, Lee Remick looks great but her part is a waste of her time as the picture is a waste of yours.
  • July 27, 2009
    a mixture of criminal, horror and fantastic movie with ending which leaves you thinking.

    Extremely boring. Do not bother watching, absolute waste of time.

    Unwatchable if not for Burton.
