Full Plot Details

John Morlar (Richard Burton) is watching a British television broadcast when an anchorman states that American astronauts are trapped in orbit around the moon. Suddenly someone in Morlar's room picks up a figurine and strikes him on the head repeatedly. His blood splatters the television screen. French Detective-Inspector Brunel (Lino Ventura) arrives at Morlar's apartment to begin an investigation. At first he thinks Morlar is dead, but soon he hears him breathe. At the hospital, Morlar is hooked up to life support systems, one machine in particular monitors the activity of his battered brain. Brunel discovers that Morlar has been in psychological analysis because of his history of being witness to many disasters, other people's disasters. Dr. Zonfeld (Lee Remick), Morlar's analyst, explains that Morlar's delusions had begun when he was a child. He believed that he had caused a hated nanny's death. Morlar's childhood delusions were reinforced at a resort when he overheard his parents discussing him with disapproval. When his parents strolled on top of a cliff, Morlar watched as the family car suddenly pushed them off the cliff to their deaths. One evening, Brunel pores over the mysteries of Morlar's diary and through his scrapbook of disastrous events. Gradually, Brunel begins to develop an opinion of what Morlar was like and begins to wonder if he is chasing a murderer or a victim.

Movie Reviews

The New York Times - 5/10 by Vincent CanbyThe movie was directed by Jack Gold from a screenplay by John Briley and it's fuzzy on a number of key issues that possibly could have made it fun, had they been sharper.
User Review - 10/10 by Phil WWhile working at AGM in London i helped construct the main Centerpoint building along with work on the plane. Film still holds up quite well today,
User Review - 10/10 by Donald MOne of my all time favourites! Medusa touch has a riveting story and an amazing storyteller converged together.
User Review - 10/10 by Dwayne SSooooooooooooooooo gooooooooooddddd, watched twice back to back
User Review - 10/10 by Michael FThis is a brilliant paranormal movie with a fast-paced suspenseful plot. The cast is superb with a terrific performance by Richard Burton. This is a must see thought-provoking movie filmed on location in London. Personally I think no thriller movie surpasses this one since it depends on a brilliantly talented cast without disgusting visual effects like modern movies.
User Review - 10/10 by Max Ai saw this as a kid on tv and it scared the crap out of me such a good movie
User Review - 10/10 by Harry MHey, this stars Lee Remick so it has to get five stars from me. Unusual, eerie, dark film, not well-known but certainly worth watching.
