Review

Legendary director Brian DePalma's film The Fury (1978) is one of his lesser known films, but it's also one of his best. The film follows a government agent (Kirk Douglas) whose son is kidnapped because he has psychic powers. The son is brought to a facility run by a deranged doctor (John Cassavettes), who is planning to turn the boy and other young people with psychic powers into weapons to attack their enemies.  This is one of those movies that just works despite a ridiculous sounding premise, and it lives up to all the hype surrounding it. The one thing it could have used a little more of would be skin, though we do get a nice shot of Amy Irving and Melody Scott Thomas walking through a crowded Chicago park in nothing but a pair of skimpy bikinis! Amy also sports a pair of pokies you can clearly see through a flimsy shirt as she talks to an old guy and eats an ice cream cone! That should have you working up a fury of your own!
