Kathryn Harrold is a psychiatrist at a state mental hospital who takes on the case of a suicidal teenager with amnesia. Before long she starts seeing roaches in the refrigerator and his dead mother in her office. He turns out to have uncontrolled telekinesis, which is accepted by the other doctors as a rational explanation. When they attempt to give him shock therapy everything turns slow motion and doctors float in the air. Not having learned their lesson, they later attempt brain surgery where more absurd dreamlike things happen. The film is basically a series of these set pieces. More character development and less rats would have been preferable.
