The Fury (1978)

£0.00


Country: US
Technical: DeLuxe 117m
Director: Brian de Palma
Cast: Kirk Douglas, John Cassavetes, Carrie Snodgress, Amy Irving

Synopsis:

Two youngsters develop a startling gift of telekinesis independently of each other, and are exploited by government agents. Meanwhile the boy's father is on the trail of his kidnapped son.

Review:

Old-fashioned entertainment, in its stars and score, but with post-Exorcist gore elevated to an artform. The director packs in the old tricks and some new ones: cross-cutting, back-projected hallucinations, feverish cross-panning, slow motion, jump-cuts and a best-till-last exploding baddie shot with multiple cameras.
