Director Richard Franklin [...] eventually lets Patrick's powers go haywire, but the first half of the film combines sinister atmosphere-building with a justified faith that an immobile killer is still an ever-present threat.

Tepid little chiller -- like a horror version of Tommy.

It is a film that resists visceral shocks, favoring the horror of its psychology. A shame, for its psychology is only slightly horrific.
