Patrick
AroView: A seminal Ozploitation film that fuses Euro-sleaze with Hitchcockian suspense around the story of a comatose hospital patient who utilizes his psychokinetic powers to inflict pain and death.
Takes its time to warm up and is at times constrained by the fact its main character is bed-ridden, however the surprisingly strong performances and elegant direction refuse to let it lie down. It has since gained retro-spectability, and boasts a soundtrack by Italian horror titans ‘Goblin’.
