The Power (1968)

Directed by Byron Haskin
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)

George Hamilton works at a research facility on human pain, connected to the space program. One of the scientists has superhuman telekinetic powers, but we don't know which one. When "the power" is used, electrical gadgets go haywire, a loud heartbeat is heard and someone dies. Hamilton and friend Suzanne Pleshette leave the research facility, to avoid becoming victims and to find out who has "the power". A series of misadventures follow, often unintentionally hilarious. They eventually discover who has "the power", but it's so confusing that I still don't know who it was even after just watching the film. Terrible.
