Last post by Rev. Powell - Today at 08:29:46 AMThat's the challenge. Let's see if we can still do it. Though we missed a lot of good stuff.

I found it very unsettling indeed and not just because Dame Joan Collins plays a murder victim.
That ending: 😳😳

Last post by zombie no.one - Today at 06:26:03 AMQuote from: claws on Today at 03:37:37 AMApparently there is a difference between Telepathy and Telekinesis
None of the human characters in Poltergeist (1982) use telekinesis. Instead, the telekinetic and supernatural phenomena—such as moving chairs, floating objects, and bending items—are caused entirely by the malicious ghosts and spirits haunting the house, rather than any psychic powers wielded by the family or the paranormal investigators.
No, the characters in the 1984 Firestarter film do not use telekinesis. Instead, they possess other psychic abilities: Charlie McGee (Drew Barrymore) has pyrokinesis (the power to create and control fire), her father Andy (David Keith) has a form of mind control/telepathy called "the push", and her mother Vicky's abilities are telepathic.
Contradiction:
Firestarter (1984): A young Drew Barrymore stars as Charlie McGee, a girl who exhibits severe pyrokinesis (a subset of telekinesis focused on fire creation) due to secret government experiments conducted on her parents.QuoteWhile pyrokinesis is often categorized under the broader umbrella of psychic powers, it is strictly the creation and control of fire, whereas telekinesis is the movement of physical objects with the mind. Charlie controls flames, not the physical objects themselves. Thank you for catching that oversight.
No characters in Summer of Fear use telekinesis. The supernatural and psychological elements in the 1978 horror-suspense film directed by Wes Craven are instead based entirely on traditional witchcraft, manipulation, and voodoo-style spells rather than mind powers or moving objects with the mind.
No characters in Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers use telekinesis.
Psychic Connection vs. Telekinesis
Telepathy, Not Telekinesis: Young Jamie Lloyd and Michael Myers share a psychic and telepathic link, meaning she can sense his emotions, see through his eyes, and react when he kills, but no objects are moved with the mind.
No Object Movement: Throughout the film, physical actions and traditional slasher violence are used instead of any supernatural movement of objects.
I knew that would happen.

Last post by claws - Today at 04:20:02 AM"Suburban Gothic Intruder" Universe based on Fright Night (1985)
It takes the classic 'Boy (Girl) Who Cried Wolf' framework and embeds it into a modern neighborhood setting.
Fright Night (1985)
Night Visitor (1989)
Never Cry Werewolf (2008)
What makes this Universe special is that not only does Night Visitor and Never Cry Werewolf use the same 'Fright Night' blueprint, they also use the same characters with different names.

Last post by claws - Today at 03:52:32 AMI would add The Fury (1978) to the Telekinesis Girl list though:
The Model Train Experiment: Early in the film, while being tested at the Paragon Institute, Gillian demonstrates her natural abilities by using telekinesis to manipulate and dramatically accelerate a model train around a track.
Deflecting and Throwing Objects: As her powers grow and she learns to control them, she is able to deflect objects and use telekinetic force to push people and things away from her.
