Netflix Instant just blew my mind by adding Brian De Palma’s 1978 The Fury, pictured above, to their streaming service.
Starring Kirk Douglas, John Cassavetes, Carrie Snodgress, and Charles Durning, “When two telekinetic teenagers become the target of an exploitative government baddie, one’s father becomes determined to stop him.”
Whether you’re a fan of Carrie, Sisters, Dressed to Kill or even Phantom of the Paradise, you have got to see The Fury, which is easily one of the best horror films ever made. If you’re a fan, put Joe Begos’ festival hit The Mind’s Eye on your radar immediately.
Also now streaming on Netflix is last year’s The Diabolical, which stars Final Destination and Resident EvilTerrorized by unexplained disturbances and horrific visions in her home, a young widowed mother turns to her scientist boyfriend for help.”
Lastly, you can now watch the 2004 CGI disaster Night Watch, which hailed from Russian filmmaker-turned mega producer Timur Bekmambetov. It’s the first in a two-part series (originally a planned trilogy), and plays on the tension between light and dark, pitting superhuman patrollers against shadowy forces of the night.
