Synopsis

Watch: The Medusa Touch 1978 123movies, Full Movie Online – John Morlar (Richard Burton) is watching a British television broadcast when an anchorman states that American astronauts are trapped in orbit around the moon. Suddenly someone in Morlar’s room picks up a figurine and strikes him on the head repeatedly. His blood splatters the television screen. French Detective-Inspector Brunel (Lino Ventura) arrives at Morlar’s apartment to begin an investigation. At first he thinks Morlar is dead, but soon he hears him breathe. At the hospital, Morlar is hooked up to life support systems, one machine in particular monitors the activity of his battered brain. Brunel discovers that Morlar has been in psychological analysis because of his history of being witness to many disasters, other people’s disasters. Dr. Zonfeld (Lee Remick), Morlar’s analyst, explains that Morlar’s delusions had begun when he was a child. He believed that he had caused a hated nanny’s death. Morlar’s childhood delusions were reinforced at a resort when he overheard his parents discussing him with disapproval. When his parents strolled on top of a cliff, Morlar watched as the family car suddenly pushed them off the cliff to their deaths. One evening, Brunel pores over the mysteries of Morlar’s diary and through his scrapbook of disastrous events. Gradually, Brunel begins to develop an opinion of what Morlar was like and begins to wonder if he is chasing a murderer or a victim..
Plot: A French detective in London reconstructs the life of a man lying in hospital with severe injuries with the help of journals and a psychiatrist. He realises that the man had powerful telekinetic abilities.

Reviews:

“I’m the man with the power to create catastrophe”.
And he isn’t kidding! An unusually rigid, dark and hazy telekinetic crossed disaster driven supernatural-thriller, predictably told and methodically directed, but the spectacle starts out like a cerebral murder-mystery before the bleak, schlocky mayhem bursts from the seams. Once a weary-eyed Richard Burton starts staring into your soul… only means upcoming doom is near. About an hour away… give or take.

The story follows a French detective Brunel (Lino Ventura who’s great here) on temporary assignment for Scotland yard, as he investigates the attempted murder of a writer, John Morlar, who now lays comatose in a hospital bed. However there’s something strange about this case, and this man. He learns from Morlar’s psychiatrist Dr Zonfeld (a really cold Lee Remick), and Morlar’s journals, he believed he could predict the future, and eventually cause disasters, or even death.

This leads to a lot of red herrings, where motivations are unravelled through Brunel’s consistent digging of the facts, although it’s not hard to figure who was the attempted murderer. So when that’s finally revealed, everything suddenly changes and the story comes into its own feeling like there’s a lot more at stake. The script through flashbacks, interestingly gives an insight into Morlar’s decaying mindset, as his psychic ability grows and bitter distain for life (especially for the establishment) festers. Therefore the morbid nature of its bubbling intentions builds and shocks begin to multiply, which always seem to end in tragedy, and once its starts… there’s no going back. It’s going to end, like it began… Morlar will see to that with an excellent, fitting ending.
