Totally abysmal film. Brian DaPalma has given us far better work that actually made sense. This is utterly ridiculous, and I'm being polite.
You would think that a middle east shooting at the film's beginning had something to do with the Arab-Israeli conflict. You would think that there is going to be a terrorist plot. There is terror all right, but the picture quickly descends into a telekinetic nonsense, with 2 teenagers, Andrew Stevens and Amy Irving needed due to their psychic powers. We never are told the organization that wants them and what they have intended for them to do.
Instead, we are subjected to wild chase scenes, and the kids using their psychic powers to cause all sorts of mayhem. When the bleeding starts, you know you're in for it. The bodies begin to pile up dramatically as just about everyone meets a horrible death. Horrible best describes this film.
