THIS EPISODE CONTAINS ONLY LIGHT SPOILERS
Join Val once again as he digs through the back catalogue for films about telekinesis!
We start with a visit to the World Telekinesis Championships to see what would happen if you pitted a Firestarter against a Scanner!
With that out of the way, Val then discusses what makes Carrie such an outstanding and influential horror movie, before discussing some of the films that followed in its wake.
First of all, the campy, silly, funny tv film "The Initiation of Sarah" in which Shelley Winters gets to summon Satan and chew scenery at the same time. Then "The Medusa Touch" which sees Richard Burton attempting to use his gifts to DESTROY all those who displease him (hint: almost everyone).
Then we head to Australia for a bit of Ozpolitation with "Patrick" a fun movie about a man confined to a hospital bed who still manages to get out and about... somehow. And finally we look at "The Sender" in which the nightmares of a disturbed young man manifest themselves as reality for everyone around him.
We'll also briefly touch on "The Rage: Carrie 2" and the "Carrie" remake from 2013.
And there's the usual digressions, willy jokes and segments like PETS IN PERIL and CULTURAL DIFFERENCES CORNER.
You can't afford to miss this one. Mainly because it's, like, free.
