Review of The Fury (1978) by Robert F — 17 Jun 2008

Mediocre. The entire movie should have focused on the psychic teenagers rather than deviating between that and Peter's spy-thriller story line. Furthermore, the psychic abilities of Gillian and Robin weren't developed or explained at all.

Why did they have them and what did it mean? Off the top of my head, there was one good scene that played out entirely in slow-motion when Gillian escaped from the clinic (I felt bad for Hester - she was the only character I really liked).

But that hardly saves the movie from almost total confusion and tedium.
