Review of The Psychic

The Psychic (1977)
3/10
Yellow Clues
8 November 2009
Average (and surprisingly tame) Fulci giallo which means it's still quite bad by normal standards, but redeemed by its solid build-up and some nice touches such as a neat time twist on the issues of visions and clairvoyance.

The genre's well-known weaknesses are in full gear: banal dialogue, wooden acting, illogical plot points. And the finale goes on much too long, while the denouement proves to be a rather lame or shall I say: limp affair.

Fulci's ironic handling of giallo norms is amusing, though. Yellow clues wherever you look.
