Watch Psychic For Free

Sadly Over-hyped

I'll tell you why so serious

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

The college student Patrick Costello (Zach Galligan) shares an apartment with his childhood friend Nick (Albert Schultz) and has a crush on his professor Laurel Young (Catherine Mary Stewart). Patrick has premonitions through dreams and daydreams since he was a kid and recently he is foreseeing the deaths of young women. He succeeds on dating Laurel and soon he learns that she is also dating her friend and also professor Theodore "Ted" Steering (Michael Nouri), who is the serial-killer wanted by the police. Now Patrick seeks evidences to prove that Steering is a killer to protect his beloved Laurel, but nobody believes in his words. When Steering invites Laurel to travel with him to another town, Patrick has premonitions with her becoming his next victim. What can he do to save Laurel? "Psychic" is a lame thriller full of clichés with a predictable story and one-dimension characters. The ridiculous Patrick produces many evidences against himself breaking in apartments. The two detectives are totally stupid and annoying. Why Steering is a serial-killer? There is no development of his character. The speed of the machine for clearing snow on the road seems to be in a car race. Last but not the least: what a hot professor would find attractive in a guy like Zach Galligan to have one night stand with him? My vote is four.Title (Brazil): "Psychic, Premonição Fatal" ("Psychic, Fatal Premonition")

Directed by George Mihalka, the man behind popular 80's slasher, "My Bloody Valentine", this made for cable flick features another psycho on the loose. The one here is strangling women in Boston. Annoying Zach Galligan stars as Patrick, a psychic who has visions of the murderer in action. Turns out, the teacher he has feelings for ("Night of the Comet"'s Catherine Mary Stewart) is involved with the man from his visions, Professor Steering. Patrick thus sets out to prove that Steering is responsible so that he doesn't make her his next victim.The story here is pretty typical, and there aren't many surprises along the way. It is, however, a well-made picture, handsomely photographed and coming off as if it had a bigger budget than it actually did. The vision/murder sequences are my favorites of the film, edited in such a way that makes for an especially surreal vibe. The ice skating vision is particularly memorable.Getting back to the story, one of the few surprises that we do get reminded me of a similarly effective one in the 80's anthology film, "Screamtime". Other than that, you pretty much know how this thing will end long before the halfway point. Thus, the film is aptly titled.

This film doesn't even deserve 1 star for a rating. I really enjoyed "Relative Fear" by this director, but this film is a disgrace. Everything is muddled, nothing is surprising, and by the time it was over, my first reaction was "that's it"? Yes, the box cover is really pretty and elusive, but this movie which credits itself as a "mystery" lacks any mystery at all. If there was some big "reveal" towards the end then I must have missed it (or dozed off).Don't be fooled....It's just BAD movie-making, period!Go and see any other modern film out there, or a classic film and you will be much happier, I assure you.

If there ever was a movie that could be described as "a time-killer", this is it. There's absolutely nothing to be gained from watching it, but it's not too bad. The plot may be a direct knock-off of "Eyes of Laura Mars" (with the slight difference that the hero in this one has visions of murders BEFORE they happen), but it has enough twists and turns to make you wonder if you were right when you thought you had it all figured out in the first 10 minutes (VAGUE SPOILER: you were). Zach Galligan lacks charisma and is a bit overage for his part too, but Catherine Mary Stewart is good enough to make you wonder why she never got her big break in more high-profile pictures, and Michael Nouri does a very solid job with his shady character.
