Shocktober 2021 continues with a look at Jack Gold’s The Medusa Touch (1978). It’s the story of John Morlar (Richard Burton) a man with a special gift who is "murdered" in the first few minutes of the film. It then becomes an investigation by Detective Brunel (Lino Ventura ) who tries to learn more about Morlar, who murdered him, and why.

Agatha Luz (opens in a new tab) and Jeff Meyers (opens in a new tab) join Mike to discuss psychic films, "dogs" of 1978, and more.
